Tallulah Willis, daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, opens up about her recent diagnosis.

Tallulah Willis, the youngest daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, has revealed her autism diagnosis, inspired in part by her father’s courageous battle with frontotemporal dementia

In a heartfelt social media post, the 30-year-old shared a childhood memory of her dad carrying her on the red carpet, hinting at a personal revelation about her adult diagnosis.

A Candid Moment on Instagram

Tallulah, one of three daughters of Bruce Willis, 69, and Demi Moore, 61, posted a nostalgic video of herself as a child, playfully engaging with her father at a film premiere.

Encouraging her 408,000 followers to participate in the conversation, she captioned the March 15th clip: “Tell me you’re autistic without telling me you’re autistic [sic].”

Fans quickly responded, expressing admiration for the sweet father-daughter moment while others, familiar with autism traits, noted her behaviors and Bruce’s gentle reaction.

“Your dad is truly special, and so are you. The way he stayed calm and just kept holding you is beautiful,” one user commented. Another added, “In your defense, shaved heads can be just as soothing as a Japanese Zen garden.”

A third wrote, “His concern for your feelings is pure magic. I’m so glad you have these moments captured forever.”

Tallulah’s Diagnosis

One of the most notable responses came from a psychologist specializing in neurodivergent conditions, who asked if she had been diagnosed as a child.

Tallulah replied, “This is the first time I’m sharing my diagnosis publicly. I found out this summer, and it has completely changed my life.”

Her response resonated with many, as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is often diagnosed in childhood, but many—especially women—go undiagnosed until adulthood.

Recognizing Stimming

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) describes ASD as a developmental condition that affects communication, social interactions, and often includes repetitive behaviors or specific interests.

Tallulah’s sister, Scout LaRue Willis, 32, commented on the video, noting that her younger sister was “stimming”—a term used to describe repetitive movements or actions that help individuals with autism regulate sensory experiences.

“Dude, the ear curl,” Tallulah responded, pointing out the moment she playfully folded her father’s ear, which made him smile. “I wish we had better audio.”

Supporting Bruce Willis

Tallulah, Scout, and their older sister Rumer Willis, 35, have been a pillar of love and support for their father as he faces aphasia and frontotemporal dementia (FTD).

Bruce’s wife, Emma Heming Willis, has also shared touching insights into his character, writing, “Being in his arms is the safest place in the world. He’s a true gentleman, full of love to give and share. That’s the Bruce I see every day.”

At this time, Tallulah has not shared further details about her diagnosis, but her openness has sparked meaningful conversations about autism awareness and late diagnoses.
