Emma Heming Willis on knowing “unconditional love” thanks to Bruce Willis

Emma Heming Willis shared a touching post on her and Bruce Willis’ anniversary.

The model and actress shared a throwback photo of her and Willis on Sunday to celebrate the milestone anniversary of their relationship together, sharing a thoughtful message about what their anniversaries mean now.

“17 years of us ♥️,” she began. “Anniversaries used to bring excitement – ​​now, if I’m honest, they stir up all the emotions and leave a heaviness in my heart and a sinking feeling in my stomach.”

“I give myself 30 minutes to sit in the ‘why him, why us’ and feel the anger and sadness,” she continued. “Then I shake it off and return to what is. And what is… is unconditional love.”

“I feel blessed to know that, and that’s because of him,” she said. “I would do it again and again in a heartbeat 💞”

Willis and Heming Willis tied the knot in March 2009 and share two daughters, Mabel and Evelyn. Willis is also the father of three older daughters, Rumer, Scout and Tallulah, whom he shares with his ex-wife Demi Moore.

In 2023, Willis was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, known as FTD. Since then, Heming Willis has been open about caring for her husband, sharing updates about her life and his journey on social media.

Heming Willis will publish a book about life as a nurse in 2025. In November, she shared that she had sent the first draft of her book to her publisher, The Open Field.

“I hope this book provides you with support and insight as you find your footing in your nursing journey,” she said in the caption of one post. “At its core, it’s about reminding you to take care of yourself so you can be the best care partner for your loved one.”

“The book tells so many things that I wish I had known earlier,” she added. “I can’t wait for you to read it.”
