Bruce Willis is all smiles in new photos alongside his wife, model and actor Emma Heming Willis.

The photos, posted by Heming Willis on Instagram, show the couple sitting on a fallen tree trunk in a forested area. In one photo, the two gaze at one another lovingly. Heming Willis also posted a video on her Instagram Story showing the veteran actor walking through the underbrush with picturesque mountain ranges in the distance.

The photos and video came just over a week after Willis’ family posted a message to social media announcing the 67-year-old actor would be “stepping away” from acting due to an aphasia diagnosis. Aphasia is a cognitive condition that affects people’s ability to communicate verbally. “This is a really challenging time for our family and we are so appreciative of your continued love, compassion and support,” the post read.

According to reports, Willis’ health has been a concern since at least 2020. Mike Burns, director of Out of Death — one of several low-budget action films Willis starred in over the past few years — found himself needing to reduce the star’s role to accommodate Willis’ health issues. “It looks like we need to knock down Bruce’s page count by about 5 pages,” he wrote in a June 2020 email. “We also need to abbreviate his dialogue a bit so that there are no monologues, etc.”

Several more crewmembers who recently worked with Willis described troubling instances where it was unclear whether the actor was “fully aware of his surroundings.” Willis reportedly struggled to remember his lines and once asked aloud to a crew on set, “I know why you’re here, and I know why you’re here, but why am I here?”

Despite the tragic circumstances, many of Willis’ former costars and admirers have expressed support for the actor in his struggle. Haley Joel Osment, who starred in 1999’s The Sixth Sense with Willis, recently posted a heartfelt message calling Willis “a true legend who has enriched all of our lives with a singular career that spans nearly half a century.” John Travolta’s tribute to the actor included a tender anecdote describing Willis’ sense of empathy. “Bruce and I became good friends when we shared 2 of our biggest hits together, Pulp Fiction and Look Who’s Talking. Years later he said to me, ‘John, I just want you to know that when something good happens to you, I feel like it’s happening to me,'” Travolta wrote in an Instagram post. “That’s how generous a soul he is. I love you Bruce.”
