Wile the announcement of Bruce Willis’ aphasia diagnosis caused immediate concern, his daughter Rumer has since provided an update on the actor’s condition. “Thank you, thank you, thank you so much for all of the messages, all of the prayers, for keeping my poppa and our whole family in your thoughts and prayers,” she said on Instagram. “Thank you all for all the sweet messages about my dad. I truly appreciate it more than you know.”
Rumer, the eldest daughter of Willis and actor Demi Moore, emphasized that the abundance of love and support from fans has been meaningful to their entire family. The “Sorority Row” actor went on to sing several songs in the video, an act she said was inspired by her father. “He’s absolutely the reason why I love music, why I love the kind of music that I do love, why I love oldies,” Rumer said, as she performed “Down in Mexico” by The Coasters.
Willis’ second eldest daughter, Scout, also took to Instagram to address her father’s “surreal” diagnosis. “It kept hitting me yesterday how much love, energy, and prayers were now being sent to my daddio and just humbling me in a way that’s brings tears as I write this,” Scout wrote on March 31, the day after Willis’ family made the announcement. “I am so grateful for your love, I’m so grateful to hear about what my papa means to you.” The actor certainly has no shortage of love and support in his corner.
