Bruce Willis’ wife Emma Heming celebrated his 69th birthday Tuesday with a touching tribute.
“Like you, we simply adore him,” said the former model, 45. I told my Instagram followers. “What you may not know, but you may imagine, is that being wrapped in his arms is the safest place in this whole wide world.”
Hemming went on to describe Willis as a “true gentleman” who had “so much love to give and share.”
“That’s what I can see, the real core of him,” she concluded the post.
“I’m telling you, it’s so pure and so good. Happy Birthday my love. You are the gift that keeps on giving.”
In the attached throwback photo, the “Die Hard” star was smiling while holding one of the couple’s two daughters.
In addition to Mabel, 11, and Evelyn, nine, Willis is also dad to Rumer, 35, Scout, 32, and Talulah, 30, with ex-wife Demi Moore.
The “Ghost” star, 61, and her daughters have shown support for Bruce since he helped reveal his frontotemporal dementia diagnosis in February 2023.
The following month, the movie star’s family felt “sad and saddened” while celebrating his 68th birthday.
Hemming, who married Bruce in 2009, admitted on Instagram at the time that she “started the morning crying.”
The “Moonlighting” alum was initially diagnosed with aphasia and announced in March 2022 that he would be stepping back from his decades-long acting career.
Hemming has well documented the ups and downs of caring for her husband, and recently revealed that she has experienced not only “grief and deep bonding” but also “grief and deep love.”
