Throughout Willis’ medical journey, his family has been by his side every step of the way. This even includes his ex, Demi Moore, who continues to inspire other families similar to her own. Rumer Willis, their eldest daughter, is also known for sharing the sweetest content about her dad. In fact, she was recently asked about him at the premiere of her new film, My Divorce Party, which took place at the 24th Annual Beverly Hills Film Festival.
“He’s great. Yeah, yeah, doing OK. Thank you so much for asking,” Rumer replies to a question about her dad. “I think, for me, through this experience, what’s been so incredible is my dad is so beloved, and that’s been so evident in the transparency with which we’ve been sharing.”

The struggles and heartbreak that come along when a loved one has dementia are so difficult to deal with. Willis’ condition presents many struggles, including those related to communication.
But in addition to all of the love and support from the fans, Rumer is grateful for the positive impact they’re able to have on others going through the same thing.
“And I think if there’s any way sharing our experience brings hope — whatever comes forward as a family — that can have an effect and bring any sort of hope, comfort to someone else experiencing that, then to me, that’s … everything,” Rumer shares.
