Bruce Willis, who has German roots, was a fixture in Hollywood for decades. He starred in countless action films and starred in the Die Hard films, which was an incredible achievement. But Bruce Willis has also repeatedly made headlines with his private life. From 1987 to 2000 he was married to Demi Moore (59). His daughters Rumer Willis, Scout LaRue Willis, and Tallulah Belle Willis came from the relationship.
Bruce Willis has been married to British model Emma Heming (43) since 2009. The pair has two daughters together.
