<p>Bruce Willis’ wife Emma Heming Willis&nbsp;is clearly upset with how the media is writing about her family and actor-husband in particular. Taking to her Instagram, Emma schooled media about printing “stupid headlines” as Bruce Willis deals with advanced dementia.&nbsp;</p>

<p>It was in February last year that Bruce Willis was diagnosed with aphasia which then progressed to frontotemporal dementia (FTD). The family had then spoken about coming together and taking care of the actor who was best known for some of the biggest action flicks.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Now taking to Instagram, <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/who-is-emma-heming-willis-know-why-the-model-made-an-emotional-plea-to-paparazzi-to-give-bruce-willis-space-569477">Emma Willis </a>wrote, “It’s Sunday morning and I’m triggered. I just got click-baited. I’m just scrolling, minding my own business, and just saw a headline that had to do with my own family. The headline basically says there is no more joy in my husband. Now, I can just tell you, that is far from the truth.”</p>

Bruce Willis' wife Emma schools media over 'stupid headlines' about 'no joy' in his life amid dementia battle

<p>Hollywood star Bruce Willis has reportedly been diagnosed with untreatable dementia. The actor's family reveal his illness via an official statement on Thursday. The news comes months after he announced his retirement from acting because of growing cognitive difficulties.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Willis, 67, is one of the most popular Hollywood stars who delivered hits like the <em>Die Hard</em>&nbsp;movies in the 1980s-1990s. Willis stepped away from Hollywood in March and has been out of the limelight since then.</p>

<p>"Since we announced Bruce's diagnosis of aphasia in spring 2022, Bruce's condition has progressed and we now have a more specific diagnosis: frontotemporal dementia," a statement said.</p>

<p>Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is an umbrella term for disorders affecting the areas of the brain that deal with personality, behavior and language.</p>
