After the criticism she has received in recent weeks, Tallulah, Bruce Willis's daughter, has broken her silence on social media. Through the comments on one of her latest Instagram posts, the young woman has revealed the reason why she "made" her latest and controversial "decision."
There is no doubt that this legendary 69-year-old actor is going through one of the toughest periods of his life. All of this happened after, in 2022, his diagnosis of aphasia became public, which later progressed to frontotemporal dementia.
Since that moment, Bruce Willis's routine has changed drastically. So much so that, away from the media spotlight, Tallulah's father has been forced to leave cinema to focus on his current health condition.
That's why every public appearance by the actor is received with great emotion by his millions of fans. Proof of this is what happened a few weeks ago on social media.
On June 22, Tallulah shared on Instagram a very family-oriented moment with Bruce Willis and, as expected, the reactions quickly followed. This is why she felt compelled to explain the reasons that led her to make that decision.
Tallulah, Bruce Willis's daughter, explains on social media: "I made the decision to show it because I know what he represents"
That day, Tallulah posted on Instagram a series of photos where Bruce Willis could be seen visiting his grandmother. The images, full of affection, moved many followers, although they also sparked a heated debate.
In fact, some users of that social network questioned the decision the young woman made to make those snapshots public, considering the actor's fragile health condition.
"I don't think you should expose your father to the public! He's vulnerable and some things should be kept private! He hasn't given you his permission to post them!" After echoing this person's comment, Tallulah was quick to respond to the criticism with firmness and empathy:
"Hello, I understand what you mean. As a family, we use our judgment when deciding what to post. Today was a wonderful day, full of smiles... I made the decision to show it to the world because I know what he represents to everyone."
Her words quickly found support from many of Bruce Willis's fans: "Thank you, darling. It's very generous of you to let us see these moments because you already know how much we love him," one follower said. "I'm saying this as a father: the hug you gave him is worth more than anything," another user added.
Since his retirement from cinema, Bruce Willis's family has chosen to inform honestly and sensitively about the actor's health. So much so that, through statements and small gestures, they have continued to keep the actor's bond with his audience.
