Bruce Willis' wife Emma Heming Willis has stepped out after getting candid over her husband's dementia battle.

After refuting claims that Bruce, 68, had "no more joy" left in him, Emma kept it casual in a light blue sweater and jeans. Emma also held a large white bag, white fanny pack and Stanley-like tumbler as stepped out in white sneakers. This comes just after she admitted that she has been struggling with "grief" and "sadness."

Emma, 45, looked concerned at one point as she opened her car door.

This comes one day after Emma posted a heartfelt video to Instagram to address recent claims.

"The headline basically says there is no more joy in my husband," Emma she said in the video. "Now, I can just tell you, that is far from the truth. Stop scaring people to think that once they get a diagnosis of some kind of neurocognitive disease that, ‘That’s it. It’s over. Let’s pack it up. Nothing else to see here. We’re done.’ No, it’s the complete opposite of that."

In a caption next to her Instagram video on Sunday, Emma wrote, "My experience is that two things can be true and exist at the same time. Grief and deep love. Sadness and deep connection. Trauma and resilience. I had to get out of my own way to get here but once I arrived, life really started to come together with meaning and I had a true sense of purpose. There is so much beauty and soulfulness in this story."

Emma; Bruce's ex-wife Demi Moore; and his children Rumer, Scout, Tallulah, Mabel and Evelyn revealed that the actor had been diagnosed with aphasia and would be retiring in March 2022. In February 2023, they learned his condition progressed to frontotemporal dementia.

Since then, his blended family has come together to be by the actor's side. In October 2023, a close friend of the actor's revealed he could no longer speak due to the state of his condition.

Emma has recently opened up about how she is looking into her own "brain health" after watching her husband's condition unfold.
