Tallulah Willis shares an update on her father’s condition
The ‘Whole Ten Yards’ actor shared that following her father’s diagnosis, their family visits have become even more poignant.
“Our visits have so much love and I feel that overarches anything for me,” shared Tallulah, according to Page Six.
She explained that they are able to navigate the difficult time as “being able to have” a “connection” with her father is inspiring them.
She continued, “I know he knows how much I love him, I know how much he loves me – I know how much he loves all of us,” while talking about her famous family, per Fox News.
"There’s so much love in our family," Tallulah gushed and noted, "It’s love that is very supportive and very sturdy. There’s not a fragility to the support or conditionality to how we support each other.”
In her heartfelt interview, she further shared that her father’s illness has also inspired them to make the best out of it, as they now have the incentive to “create awareness” about it.
"We are in a very unique position where we have this platform. All of us do… all of us in our own ways, have a voice… and I think it’s been ingrained… I know for me, especially, ‘how can we use something that’s painful or challenging or a struggle and create awareness about it,’" explained the star.

Tallulah, who is currently navigating through a recent diagnosis of autism, gushed about her 16-month-old daughter Louetta, whom she welcomed with ex-Derek Richard Thomas.
Sharing that Louetta is the "center of gravity in our family,” Tallulah noted, "I think it's universal to be in the delight of a child and to see the way their brain develops and grows."
She revealed that her daughter’s arrival has helped in strengthening their familial bond.
"We are in constant contact," Tallulah shared and added, "We have many group threads for the family. But my sisters and I, we talk every day."
Apart from Bruce Willis and his three daughters with Demi Moore - Rumer, Scout and Tallulah - the loving family also consists of Demi Moore, the 'Pulp Fiction' actor's second wife Emma Heming Willis and their two young daughters - Mabel and Evelyn.
