Bruce’s wife, Emma Heming Willis, appeared on Whoopi Goldberg’s show to talk about her new caregiving book, “The Unexpected Journey.” The “Sister Act” star said she was pleased with Emma’s work on the book.
The book recounts Emma’s experience caring for Bruce Willis after his diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia.
“Because it will help anyone, even if you’re not going through this, you need to take a look at this book, because you may realize you are going through something,” Goldberg said while promoting the book.
Whoopi Goldberg had already acted alongside Bruce Willis in an episode of the second season of the TV series “Moonlighting.” She played a con artist who accidentally prevents a murder.

In 1990, she starred alongside Demi Moore, then Bruce’s wife, in the hit “Ghost.” Two years later, she and Bruce Willis acted together in “The Player.”
In her memoir, “Bits and Pieces: My Mother, My Brother and Me,” Whoopi Goldberg commented on the time when Willis stepped away from the lead role in “Burglar,” which eventually went to her.
“Most of the movie roles I played in the 80s and 90s were intended for other people,” she said, recalling the difficulty Black actors faced in finding prominent roles in Hollywood.
