Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Bruce Willis thanks first responders amid California wildfires
Caption: Bruce Willis thanks first responders amid California wildfires. A series of blazes have affected Los Angeles and surrounding regions over the past week with thousands of buildings destroyed, 27 people dead, and 200,000 residents forced to evacuate. Taking to Instagram on Thursday, Emma Heming Willis shared a brief black-and-white video showing her husband Bruce, 69, shaking the hands of two police officers in Los Angeles and posing with them for a photo. ”Spotting a first responder, Bruce never missed a chance to show his gratitude with a heartfelt handshake and a 'thank you for your service.' Yesterday was no different.” The video quickly racked up over 50,000 likes, with Bruce’s daughter Tallulah Willis commenting, "This makes my heart so freaking full”. The video appears to be the first time Bruce has been seen in public since 2022 when his family announced that he would be retiring from acting as he had been diagnosed with aphasia. The following year, it was confirmed he had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
