Longtime friend and fellow actor Sylvester Stallone is giving the public a rare update on Bruce Willis’s health months after the actor announced his retirement due to health issues and aphasia.

In a conversation with The Hollywood Reporter, Stallone made the following comments about Bruce Willis.

“Bruce is going through some incredibly difficult circumstances. He has so remained rather unreachable. That kills me. It is very sad.”

The famous actor Bruce Willis’ wife, model Emma Heming Willis, opened up about the incident on August 30. Bruce’s acting career was officially announced to be ending only a few months ago.

Willis disclosed that he had recently been diagnosed with aphasia. The initial statement from Willis and his family read, “To Bruce’s great followers, as a family, we wanted to convey that our precious Bruce has been experiencing some health issues and has just been diagnosed with aphasia, which is impairing his cognitive abilities.”

Ever since he made his announcement, Emma has been sharing bits and pieces of their summer together. There were many pleasant times spent with family in it.

Emma’s most recent Instagram post, however, showed her vulnerability to her followers. Emma opened up about her experiences with loss as she watched a video montage of the last summer.

Emma was shown working out, playing tennis, riding, gardening, doing chores, and painting throughout the movie. She added, “Finding new things, stepping outside of my comfort zone, and being active this summer was the summer of self-discovery.”

“I am frequently paralyzed by my sadness, but I’m learning to deal with it. According to my stepdaughter @scoutlaruewillis, grief is the most profound and pure expression of love. I hope that also brings you some comfort.”

Scout, who Bruce shares with his ex-wife Demi Moore, gave the video another remark, saying, “This is so great! I adore you so much and am very proud of you.”

Additionally, other people shared their wisdom regarding grief. “Grief will make you move mountains when you can hardly leap hurdles,” another person said.

It is the coexistence of the present and the future. You proceed forward. You should. “Your strong example is giving your darling kids courage. And my love, what amazing strength you have. While you keep moving forward, we’ll continue to pray.”

Emma also posted a recent video of Bruce and their friend performing music. Despite his health issues, Bruce continues to play the harmonica like no other.

Emma shared her message on National Grief Day.
