    Bruce Willis ' daughter Rumer offered an update on the silver screen king's ongoing battle with frontotemporal dementia during the screening of SkipStone Pictures' Trail of Vengeance on Thursday (October 17).

    Rumer told E!News that the Die Hard star was doing "really well" lately, and that she sees him often.

    "He's doing really well. I've seen him like the other the other day, right before I left and we got to all go over, and it was so wonderful."

    Rumer went on to describe the 69-year-old's role as a grandfather to her daughter, revealing that their relationship is "such a beautiful thing."

    "She's the only grandchild. It's just nice. I feel like being able to share in any sort of, you know, like a new life and grandchildren era, is just such a beautiful thing. And, you know, especially because he's such a girl dad anyway. I mean, having another girl is pretty cool."

    Willis was diagnosed with aphasia in 2022. One year later , Rumer unveiled the tragic news of his dementia battle, detailing symptom progression.

    "Since we announced Bruce’s diagnosis of aphasia in spring 2022, Bruce’s condition has progressed and we now have a more specific diagnosis: frontotemporal dementia (known as FTD). Unfortunately, challenges with communication are just one symptom of the disease Bruce faces. While this is painful, it is a relief to finally have a clear diagnosis."

    Willis has since experienced a series of ups and down associated with the progression of his condition and its incurable nature. However, his last few health reports have been positive with two of his daughters unveiling that he is doing well, and that his condition is "stable."
