He has kept a low profile since his family announced two months ago that he had been diagnosed with aphasia. But Bruce Willis was recently discovered trying to stay in good health.
The 67-year-old Die Hard actor was recently spotted working out with a trainer in Los Angeles. Wearing a white t-shirt, dark gray sweatpants and sneakers, Bruce soaked up the sun on a walk in California. At one point he was seen picking a flower.
In March, Bruce’s family, including his wife Emma Hemming Willis (43), his ex-wife actress Demi Moore (59) and their three daughters, Rumer (33), Scout (30) and Tallulah (28), issued a joint statement on Instagram announcing his diagnosis.

The disease, which affects cognitive functioning, has caused the actor to retire after 40 years as one of Hollywood’s biggest action stars.
The news shocked his fans, but Bruce seems to be in good spirits.
He was photographed on a walk with Emma a few weeks after his diagnosis. The couple have two daughters, Mabel (10) and Evelyn (7).
Two weeks ago, Emma shared an Instagram Story of Bruce playing basketball with friends, which she captioned, “See you BeeDub.”
He also shared photos of Bruce helping Mabel with a loose tooth. “He’s the guy who pulls his teeth around here,” she wrote.
Emma has been keeping fans updated on how Bruce has been dealing with his diagnosis, often sharing glimpses of life back home with him.
He admits that it hasn’t been easy and realizes that he needs space for her too.
“I find it hard to make time for my personal care every day. I put my family’s needs above my own, which I’ve found doesn’t make me any kind of hero,” she said in a recent interview.
“That amount of care for everyone else in my home had taken a toll on my mental health and overall health, and it didn’t serve anyone in my family.”
Emma has had a lot of support from Demi, Rumer, Scout and Tallulah, a source says.
They all join behind Bruce.
“We love spending time together, and we know that time is precious, and I don’t take it for granted.”
