No, Bruce Willis is not dead. He suffers from a cognitive disease called Aphasia, but the former actor is currently spending time with his family members and is fine.
Bruce Willis is one of the actors who fell prey to the fake death rumor that often goes viral on social media. Actors like Robert Downey Jr, Dwayne Johnson, and musicians Garth Brooks and Alan Jackson are also among some who were claimed to have passed away due to some reasons. In November 2022, a Facebook post claimed that Willis had passed away. The post read, "We announce the sad news of Talented Actor Bruce Willis, along with a tearful farewell."
In no time the post went viral and scared a bunch of fans as Willis suffers from a grave disease and his family had just released a statement about it some while back before the fake post hit the internet. However, later the post was debunked and was just a death hoax curated unnecessarily. The actor is all fine and is currently with his family after retiring from acting.
