In a heartwarming Instagram post, Tallulah Willis, youngest daughter of Hollywood stars Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, shared a touching childhood memory of her father carrying her on the red carpet. However, the post carried a deeper meaning, hinting at Tallulah’s recent autism diagnosis. Let’s delve into her story and learn more about her condition!
Tallulah’s Instagram video clip showed her as a young child playfully interacting with her father’s head while he spoke to the media at a film premiere. She captioned the clip with the phrase “tell me your autistic without telling me your autistic [sic],” inviting her followers to engage in a conversation about autism.
The response from Tallulah’s 408,000 followers was overwhelmingly supportive and loving. Many shared their own knowledge and experiences with autism, discussing Tallulah’s symptoms and the loving reaction of her father. One user even praised Bruce for his exceptional care, saying, “Your dad is one-of-a-kind honey, and so are you.”
When questioned by a psychologist specializing in neurodivergent conditions, Tallulah revealed that this was the first time she had publicly shared her diagnosis. She discovered her autism diagnosis during the summer, and it has had a significant impact on her life.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disability that affects social communication, interaction, and behavior. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), individuals with ASD often display restricted or repetitive behaviors and interests. Tallulah’s sister, Scout LaRue Willis, provided further insight by explaining that Tallulah’s actions in the video, such as folding her father’s ear, are a form of stimming. Stimming helps individuals regulate sensory input.
Tallulah’s revelation comes at a challenging time for the Willis family, as they continue to support their father, Bruce Willis, in his battle with aphasia and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Bruce was diagnosed with FTD, a degenerative condition primarily affecting communication and behavior, in 2023. One of the early symptoms he experienced was aphasia, which affects language skills.
For now, Tallulah has chosen not to disclose further details about her diagnosis. The outpouring of love and support for her speaks volumes about the resilience of the Willis family. Let’s send our best wishes to Tallulah and her family as they navigate this new chapter in their lives.

ROYAL TRAGEDY. William and Kate are in shock.
When the Prince and Princess of Wales bought pizza for mountain rescue workers, they met a man selling pizza and wrote a touching funeral speech for him.
Father of two Peter Morris, who was 47 years old, died of cancer in May, not long after Kate was told she had it.
On notepaper from Kensington Palace, Prince William wrote his wife Tracey a letter of condolence. When he died, it was read.
“I can’t even begin to imagine what a huge hole he will leave in your life,” he wrote. “My heart goes out to you and your family.”
“Catherine and I had a great time meeting Pete.”
“We know Pete was a very dedicated and well-liked member of the community because of how people have responded to his death.”
“I wanted you to know that you and your family are thinking about you right now.”
In April of last year, Kate and Wills bought 12 pizzas from Peter’s converted VW van for £127.50. Peter is from Ebbw Vale in South Wales.
They gave the Central Beacons Mountain Rescue Team a choice of pizzas while they were at Dowlais Rugby Club in Merthyr Tydfil. The pizzas were margarita, pepperoni, BBQ chicken, and goats cheese.
At the time, Peter said, “They were really nice.” When I was setting up the business, I never would have thought that one day I would work for the young king.
In 2016, Pete opened Little Dragon Pizza Van.
He had beaten esophageal cancer, but doctors found it in his adrenal gland and liver four months after he became a royal. He died in less than a year, but the business keeps going.
The letter from William will be framed for Pete’s daughters, who are eight and five years old.
Tracey, who is 40 years old, told The Sun, “It was a huge surprise.” I have no idea how they learned that Pete had died. Because Kate is getting help, it may have struck a chord with them.
“He talked about how normal they were.”
“Many people wrote to tell us they loved Pete, but the letter from William and Kate was the most lovely.”
William wrote his wife Tracey a letter of condolence on paper from Kensington Palace.
