Watch: Bruce Willis thanks LA wildfire first responders in rare public appearance

Bruce Willis personally thanked first responders who have battled the LA wildfires in a very rare public appearance.

The actor, who has frontotemporal dementia (FTD) diagnosis, which is “aggressive and very rare”, has rarely been seen in public since his diagnosis.

The sweet video was shared by his wife Emma Heming Willis on Instagram on Thursday (16 January).

She captioned the post: “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.”
