Bruce Willis Has 'Declined A Lot Mentally'

Bruce Willis' reported mental decline has reportedly become increasingly noticeable as he continues to battle frontotemporal dementia (FTD). According to a source who spoke to the Daily Mail, the 71-year-old actor has "declined a lot mentally" and is now "living in his own world."

The insider also claimed that Willis is largely unaware of how much his condition has changed, explaining, "He knows his life is different, but he doesn't think it is that different." The source added that he "doesn't talk about it or even complain much" and "senses something is off, but he doesn't have a full grasp of it."

The insider offered an especially heartbreaking description of what Willis reportedly looks like during certain moments, comparing his behavior to that of a young child. "Sometimes he looks like a baby who is staring at an object with curiosity, just taking it in," the source said. "But if you look at him, he appears like a healthy middle-aged man."
