Bruce Willis’ wife claims she’s been ‘cruelly trolled’ after husband’s diagnosis

Bruce Wills’ wife Emma Heming Willis has thanked fans for their kind words of encouragement after Bruce was diagnosed with dementia.

However, the 45-year-old also admitted that she has received some nasty messages from fans that she labeled as “snarky.”

Emma took to Instagram on Thursday to thank fans for their support as she said she will remain resilient amid the “snarky” messages.

In a video update, she said: “So I just wanted to come on and acknowledge the incredible amount of messages that I received in the past couple days of encouragement and other care partners sharing their learnings with me from past experience.

“There has been some snarkiness embedded in there too, but those are people with an opinion versus the experience and those two things are very different.”

Bruce’s wife explained that she “prays” the people who decided to leave the nasty messages and they “never understand what this experience looks like or feels like”.

She added: “I do pay close attention to the people that have the experience because those people are who I am learning from,” she continued.

“So I’m going to continue to keep my head down and focus on this path that I’m on which is to raise awareness around FTD, to talk about the importance of brain health.”

Currently, there is no cure for dementia and Emma explained that her “only glimmer of hope” is to take care of our brain health and prevent the onset of the disease.

“But I do really believe that it’s through action, education and this type of conversation that creates hope and change.

“So I hope that you will join me and use your voice too because we are much more powerful together.”

Fans took to the comments to share their support with Emma.
