Bruce and Emma have been married since 2009 and have two daughters together. He also shares three older daughters with his ex-wife Demi Moore, whom he was married to from 1987 through 2000. The families live very blended lives and are all working together to ensure that the rest of Bruce’s life is comfortable and filled with love. Although frontotemporal dementia is not terminal, patients can experience a wide range of complications and may eventually require round-the-clock care.
