Emma Heming Willis made some time for herself this weekend.
Heeding advice from her 8-year-old daughter Evelyn Penn, Heming Willis, 44, spent some time outdoors and reflected on the experience in an Instagram post on Sunday.
Setting scenes from her solo outing to Taylor Swift’s “Anti-Hero,” the mom of two wrote, “Hi! I’m actually the problem 👋🏽.”
“Bruce and his masterful mic-drop-one-liners. He would say, ‘he just can’t get out of his own way.’ I never really understood what it meant until it hit me in the face the other day,” she wrote of a saying husband Bruce Willis often references.
“It’s me. I can’t get out of my own way. I plan, organize, look after everyone and I still rarely make time for me,” she continued. “The kicker came from Evelyn a few days ago when she said, ‘Mom, you need to get out and touch the grass.’ Spoken like her father’s child.”
Heming Willis continued, “I knew what she meant. I’m wound so tight that she sees it, they all feel it. How is that serving anyone? Today I made time to do something I used to love doing—a 30 min hike and it made all difference.”
“They are giving me the permission, almost begging me to make time for myself and I need to shhhh, listen and just go 💙.”
Bruce Willis’ blended family also recently gathered to celebrate a very special Easter Sunday.
Bruce Willis was recently spotted for the first time since his family revealed that he had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) last month. The retired actor stepped out in Santa Monica on Thursday. FTD symptoms often arise in younger patients between the ages of 40 and 65, according to the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine.
In an interview published by the Bild newspaper, a person close to the actor claims that his symptoms have worsened. The symptoms first began to show up in Bruce Willis, as reported by the British newspaper Daily Mail, two years earlier.
During the filming sessions in which the actor was present, people present could already sense that something was not right. He had difficulty in holding conversations, coupled with not being able to connect words correctly. Now, Friends actor Matthew Perry has commented on Willis’ worsening health.
