Mabel is one of two daughters the actor has had with Emma; they also have an 8-year-old daughter, Evelyn Penn. From his prior marriage to Demi Moore, Willis is also father to three more daughters: 33-year-old Rumer Willis, 31-year-old Scout Willis, and 28-year-old Tallulah Willis. The actor’s wife, ex-wife, and all five daughters had signed the joint statement that was released announcing Willis’ aphasia diagnosis and retirement in March.

“To Bruce’s amazing supporters, as a family we wanted to share that our beloved Bruce has been experiencing some health issues and has recently been diagnosed with aphasia, which is impacting his cognitive abilities,” the statement read. “As a result of this and with much consideration Bruce is stepping away from the career that has meant so much to him.”
The announcement added, “This is a really challenging time for our family and we are so appreciative of your continued love, compassion and support. 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.”

Bruce Willis is not on social media, but his wife Emma Heming Willis has been sharing updates on the actor since he stepped away from Hollywood. It’s clear that Willis has been spending much more quality time with his family. One post from Father’s Day showed Willis on the floor with his wife and two youngest daughters all piled up on top of him. The caption stated, “Happy Father’s Day to this fun, loving, generous, big hearted girl dad. We simply adore you.”
While he’s been enjoying a lot of family time, Willis is still looking back fondly on his acting career. Another recent video posted to Instagram shows Willis standing at the top of the building used for the Nakatomi Plaza in the original Die Hard film. Along with his wife, Willis had paid the location a visit in honor of the 34th anniversary of Die Hard this year. While Willis has appeared in dozens upon dozens of movies over the years, Die Hard remains one of his most popular films and the post was quick to go viral.
