The family of actor Bruce Willis stated via a joint statement shared on social media that the Die Hard franchise star is quitting acting due to an aphasia diagnosis.
Due to damage to certain brain regions, this illness inhibits the ability to perceive or formulate words. Most often, a stroke or traumatic injury is to blame.
Rumer, Bruce’s daughter, posted the shocking information on Instagram, breaking the heart of millions of followers. “To Bruce’s incredible fans, as a family we wanted to convey that our dear Bruce has been facing some health concerns and has just recently been diagnosed with aphasia, which is affecting his cognitive abilities,” she said beside a picture of her father.
“As a result of this and after careful contemplation, Bruce is leaving the profession that has meant a great deal to him.”
“Our family is going through a tremendously difficult time right now, so we sincerely appreciate all of your love, compassion, and support. We are dealing with this as a solid family and wanted to invite his fans because we are aware of how important they are to both of you.
“Live it up, as Bruce always says, and that’s exactly what we’re going to do together,”
Bruce has had a remarkable acting career, to put it mildly. He has appeared in a number of memorable films over the years, which has contributed to his reputation as one of the greatest actors of all time.
He first gained notoriety with the television programme Moonlighting, for which he won a Golden Globe and an Emmy. This multi-talented actor has demonstrated to Hollywood that there is no role that he cannot flawlessly perform.
