Emma Heming Willis, Bruce Willis' wife, took to Instagram on Friday, July 22, 2022, to share an adorable video of her eldest daughter, Mabel, busting a dance move with her father. Bruce Willis shares daughters Rumer, 33, Tallulah Willis, 28, and Scout Willis, 31, with ex-wife Demi Moore, 59. He shares his younger daughters Mabel and Evelyn Willis, 8, with Emma.  

Bruce Willis isn't slowing down despite his retirement from acting. In fact, he was recently seen boogying to some pretty silly music while attempting to twerk with his 10-year-old daughter Mabel. Mabel is seen in the video teaching her dear old dad some pretty sweet moves on a patio. Bruce, 67, wore a blue tee shirt, shorts, and sneakers as he sheepishly danced with his daughter while laughing. Mabel danced happily in bare feet while wearing a blue NASA tee and blue shorts.

“Bringing that weekend in strong! 💃🏽🪩🕺 #TGIF #happyfriday,” Heming Willis captioned the cheerful video.



 

“Great father / daughter moment,” commented one follower, while another pointedly wrote, “Bruce Willis has one speed in life: Awesome.” “Loving the dad moves Beedub!” commented a follower, with others gushing, “Love seeing Mr Willis smiling and happy,” and “Love love love…Bruce you look fabulous! Beautiful family.” All of the fans seemed to be grateful to see the 'Die Hard' actor looking so carefree. “Nothin’ better than getting your groove on with the ones you love!” commented one. “Hope you guys enjoy a wonderful weekend together!”

On March 30, just after his 67th birthday, the action star's family announced on social media earlier this year that he had been diagnosed with aphasia and would be retiring from his decades-long career. (According to The Mayo Clinic, aphasia is a medical condition that can impair a person's ability to speak, write, and understand language, both verbal and written.)

The post said, “As a result of this and with much consideration, Bruce is stepping away from the career that has meant so much to him. This is a really challenging time for our family, and we are so appreciative of your continued love, compassion, and support. We are moving through this as a strong family unit, and wanted to bring his fans in because we know how much he means to you, as you do to him. As Bruce always says, ‘Live it up,’ and together we plan to do just that.”



 

During which Emma, 46, admitted to "struggling" with having to care for her husband full-time and that it had "taken a toll," Heming explained, "No one wins when you put everyone else's needs ahead of your own. I'm not perfect, but I'm doing my best to be the best version of myself for the people I care about."

Heming explained that she is now learning to "mother" herself and make the time for self-care, says, "Everyday, I struggle with making time for self-care. I put my family's needs ahead of my own, which I discovered does not qualify me as a hero. That level of concern for everyone else in my household had taken its toll on my mental and physical health, and it served no one in my family."
