Former model Emma Heming, 44, married Bruce Willis in 2008. Together they have two daughters, Mabel and Evelyn. The actor was already the father of three daughters from his previous marriage to Demi Moore. Very close, it was in a joint press release that they announced his retirement. “Demi is in constant contact with them”, says this relative. ”When he can’t be there, he calls Bruce on the phone so he can hear his voice“.
For the actor’s family, the situation would be particularly painful. “There are days where they see glimpses of the old Bruce, but these are brief and increasingly spaced out. It’s like he pulls away from them more and more every day and it breaks their hearts”, adds this same source. ”All they can do is tell her they love her and pray for a Christmas miracle.”
