Bruce Willis' wife Emma Heming Willis recently celebrated their elder daughter Mabel's 11th birthday by sharing a heartwarming montage of family photos and videos on social media. The tribute was set to the iconic song "Pictures Of You" by The Cure, with Heming Willis praising her daughter for spreading joy wherever she goes.
The proud mom couldn't help but gush about Mabel's infectious energy, which lights up a room with her smile and warmth. She also highlighted the young girl's compassionate nature, loving and caring deeply for those around her - qualities that "are beautiful to witness."
Mabel is just one of three daughters of Willis, with 8-year-old Evelyn being his youngest child. The family has been navigating some challenging times, as Bruce recently revealed he has been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a progressive nerve cell loss disease affecting the brain's frontal and temporal lobes.
In an update shared on social media, Mabel's family expressed their hope that any attention surrounding Bruce's condition can be used to raise awareness and drive research into this debilitating disease. FTD affects personality, behavior, and language, with no current treatments available - a reality they are working towards changing in the future.
The celebration marked an important milestone for Mabel, who is growing up rapidly as she enters preteenhood. The "Die Hard" star's love for his daughters shines through in every photo shared by Heming Willis, showcasing a devoted father and husband who will always be there to support and cherish them.
