Calling Bruce “one of my best friends, the King of Pisces, a master of duality, and an action hero icon and the father of a tender little girl,” he said it was a “privilege” to have him as a father.

However, he admitted it the whole day was not entirely festive. “Today is not necessarily an easy day, because it is a day filled with very deep love, and our pain really shows us the depth of our love for someone,” he wrote. “Today I try to be with both. Grief is the price I will always pay to know what it’s like to feel so much love. I send my love to anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed by the enormity of love and the humanity of pain. I love you.”

In the meantime, Emma also posted two separate videos of them on Instagram to mark Willis’ birthday. In the first, she talked about how to deal with feelings of hurt and sadness on a daily basis. Emma noted in her video that she cried that morning.

“I started the morning crying, as you can see, from swollen eyes and a runny nose. I just think it’s important to see all sides of this,” he said. “I always get this message or people always say something like, ‘You’re so strong. I don’t know how you do it.’ They don’t give me a choice. I wish it was.”

Emma, ​​who married Bruce in 2009, she emphasized that she must be strong and be there for her two daughters. Willis’ family first revealed that he took a break from acting last year due to a brain disorder called aphasia.

“So sometimes in our lives we have to put on some big lady shoes and get down to business and that’s what I’m doing,” she said. “But Every day I have moments of sadness, pain, every day, and I really feel it today on his birthday“.
