Emma Heming Willis Celebrates Daughter Mabel's 11th Birthday with Heartwarming Family Photos

In a recent Instagram post, Bruce Willis' wife Emma Heming Willis marked her elder daughter Mabel's 11th birthday with a poignant tribute. The photos, set to the song "Pictures Of You" by The Cure, featured a montage of family moments from over the years, showcasing Mabel's growth and development.

Heming Willis wrote in the caption, "Happy 11th Birthday Mabel Ray! Your energy is infectious... How you love and care for your family and friends is beautiful to witness. Keep shining my love and always remember to #liveitup." The heartfelt message highlighted her pride and admiration for her daughter's kind heart.

The photos also showcased Mabel's father, Bruce Willis, as a devoted dad. One picture showed him holding baby Mabel while planting a kiss on her forehead, while another image depicted him spending quality time with his preteen in nature.

This birthday post comes amid significant news about Bruce Willis' health. In February, his family announced that he had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a form of dementia that affects the brain's frontal and temporal lobes. The family has since called for increased awareness and research into FTD, hoping to find treatments in the years ahead.

Mabel is not the only child of Heming Willis and Willis. She shares an 8-year-old sister with him, Evelyn, while Willis also has three daughters from his previous marriage to Demi Moore: Rumer, Scout, and Tallulah. The couple married in 2009 and have been vocal about their love for each other amidst the challenges posed by Bruce's condition.

As Mabel celebrates her 11th birthday, her family is undoubtedly grateful for every moment they share together, cherishing the memories and looking forward to a future filled with love, laughter, and happiness.
 
I mean... Mabel's birthday post is like a reminder that time keeps moving, right? One day you're holding baby Mabel, and next thing you know, she's 11 and growing up fast 🤯. It's crazy how life unfolds. And with Bruce's health struggles, I guess it's even more precious to cherish these moments... But at the same time, it's like, we gotta think about the future, you know? What's gonna happen when Mabel grows up? Will she be okay without her dad being around as much? It's all so... bittersweet 🎂.
 
🤕 just saw that Bruce Willis' frontotemporal dementia has been in full swing since Feb and now his daughter Mabel's birthday post sounds like a mix of sadness & forced positivity 🎉💔 he's getting worse by the day and Emma Heming is trying to keep it together, but we all know how that's gonna end 😩
 
omg can u believe mabel is already 11 tho 🤯 like how fast time flies?! i feel bad for bruce wilis tho about his health thing... frontotemporal dementia sounds super scary 🤕 but i'm sure emma heming willis and the fam are being super supportive & loving 💖 and awwwww that family pic is so cute!! 😊
 
Meh, happy birthday to Mabel, I guess 🎉. Family photos are always super cheesy, but I suppose it's sweet that her mom is trying to make the most of it. It's just weird how Bruce's health issues are affecting everyone around him. I mean, I'm sure Emma Heming Willis and his kids love him, but can't they at least have a normal life for once? 🙄 And what's with all this awareness about FTD? Can't we talk about something else for once? 🤷‍♀️
