The family of Bruce Willis said he has been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia.
It comes after relatives of the Hollywood actor, 67, previously said that he would be "stepping away" from his successful career after being diagnosed with aphasia, a condition affecting his cognitive abilities. On Thursday, Willis' daughter Rumer said her father's condition has "progressed" and he had been given the "more specific" diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia (FTD).
According to the NHS, frontotemporal dementia is an "uncommon" form of the disease that causes the sufferer problems with behaviour and language, and mostly affects those between the ages of 45 and 65.
