Bruce was diagnosed with aphasia in 2022, before being additionally diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD).
Five months ago, Demi helped Emma celebrate her birthday amid his battle, with their families coming together for celebrations. They both share children with the Hollywood great.
The news of his diagnosis shocked the world as his family put on a united front.
In March 2022, his family shared a heartbreaking statement saying that the actor was quitting Hollywood and "stepping away from the career that has meant so much to him".

"We are moving through this as a strong family unit, and wanted to bring his fans in because we know how much he means to you, as you do to him.
"As Bruce always says, 'live it up' and together we plan to do just that."
