Bruce Willis announced the end of his acting career

Hollywood star Bruce Willis is being forced to end his acting career because of aphasia he has been diagnosed with, his wife Emma Heming-Willis announced.

“We want to let you know that our beloved Bruce is experiencing health problems and was recently diagnosed with aphasia affecting his cognitive abilities.

After much deliberation, he is leaving the career that meant so much to him,” his spouse wrote on Instagram. The message was signed by his five daughters, Rumer, Scout, Tallulah, Mabel and Evelyn, as well as his ex-wife, actress Demi Moore.
