Bruce Willis' daughter Rumer Willis has turned to fans for medical advice as she worried she might have broken her toe.

The actress shared a snap to her Instagram Stories to ask fans what the best route to take was, as her fluffy white cat also joined in the snap. The actress is the eldest daughter of actors Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, and has recently been rallying with the rest of her family to support Bruce after his dementia diagnosis last year.

Sharing the snap to her Instagram stories and with her 1.1 million followers, Rumer asked: "Friends what do you do if you have a suspected broken toe?" In the picture her foot was covered over in a towel and what appeared to be an ice pack.

The instagram post comes as Bruce Willis' health diagnosis continues his battle with dementia, and is now 'no longer speaking'. The actor's was revealed last year, with his family including wife Emma, five daughters and ex wife Demi Moore rallying around to support him.

Bruce's family confirmed the star's health had deteriorated and he had been diagnosed with language disorder aphasia that had since progressed to a frontotemporal dementia diagnosis. The disease has a typical life expectancy of between six and eight years, but can be as low as two years in some cases. The illness has taken hold of the award winning actor to the point that he is now considered to be non-verbal, with friend and writer Glenn Gordon Caron previously claiming that Bruce "now sees life through a screen door."

Last year a source close to the family claimed that the family had come together to spend as much time as possible with Bruce, with the source explaining to US Weekly: "Bruce has good days and bad days, but in the last two months, there are many more bad days than good. This experience has brought the whole family even closer together. No one knows how much time Bruce has left, so they're soaking up every moment they get with him. Bruce has around-the-clock care, but at least one family member is always with him."

A further source then confirmed that the whole family is so determined to be with Bruce as much as possible that they are pretty much living together. They said: "They’re all there all the time. Once Bruce was diagnosed, everyone came together to keep his memory of the family intact and to be there as a constant reminder they love him. Everything revolves around him."
