The Die Hard actor, 67, retired in 2022 after he was diagnosed with aphasia, but in February, Emma and Bruce's ex-wife Demi Moore shared a joint statement, along with his three grown daughters Rumer, Scout, and Tallulah, in which they revealed his condition has sadly progressed into frontotemporal dementia, known as FTD.
