Despite these changes, they noted that "if you look at him, he looks like a healthy middle-aged man."
Likewise, they expressed that Willis "knows his life is different, but he doesn't think it's that different. He doesn't talk about it or complain much. He senses that something is wrong, but he doesn't fully grasp it."
The source added that the 71-year-old actor's personality has also changed, as he used to "have a lot of energy and talk non-stop," whereas now he is becoming more "quiet."
What has Emma Heming Willis said about her husband's illness?
In September of this year, Emma Heming Willis, wife of the Armageddon star, detailed to Hello! Magazine that it was "extremely difficult and painful" to watch Willis live with this disease.
She also explained that this feeling was "natural," as "we all want our loved ones to be healthy, full of life, and the person they always were. But FTD is a devastating disease that slowly takes things away from you."
Emma revealed that she and her family live "constantly in a state of grief."
Furthermore, she reflected on the lack of information in the media regarding frontotemporal dementia, as she stated that people who approach her often ask if Willis still remembers her.
"My answer is always a resounding yes. Bruce does not have Alzheimer's; he has frontotemporal dementia, which affects a completely different part of the brain," she expressed.
"That's why I would love to see, once and for all, a change in the media. I would like them to inform themselves about the different types of dementia and learn to report on them accurately, educating the public instead of fueling fear and stigma," she added.
