Hollywood star announced that he was stepping away from acting after being diagnosed with aphasia - a condition that affects his cognitive abilities.
According to the Mayo Clinic, aphasia is "a condition that robs you of the ability to communicate" and can be caused by a stroke, head injury, brain tumour or a disease.
In the statement that was posted to social media announcement back in March 2022, Willis' family did not reveal how specifically how the condition is affecting Willis, but it is thought that he is having trouble reading, listening, speaking, typing and writing, making acting near impossible.
In a rare glimpse into how the actor is coping, Heming Willis took to her social media account showing the star throwing a basketball straight into the hoop after being thrown it by another person.
