Hollywood and NBA worlds often collide with each other. After last year’s heartbreaking dementia diagnosis, actor Bruce Willis was first seen yesterday on his 68th birthday. Many celebrities and fans came together sharing heartfelt messages, including former Boston Celtics coach Ime Udoka’s ex-fiance, Nia Long, Willis’ former wife Demi Moore and several others.

Udoka was recently suspended from the Celtics for breaking team policies. The team management had revealed that the then-head coach had indulged in a consensual relationship with a staff member, which is strictly against the organization’s guidelines. The news created a lot of controversy and Udoka’s then-fiance Nia Long had slammed the team’s way of handling the infidelity scandal that led to the end of their relationship.

Former NBA coach’s ex-fiance one of many to be overwhelmed by Bruce Willis news

Yesterday, Willis’ ex-wife Demi Moore shared a video on Instagram of Bruce Willis and his loved ones celebrating the veteran actor’s birthday. Willis was seen chanting the birthday song, alongside everyone else. This was the first time the public got to see the Die Hard actor since his diagnosis last year.

“Happy birthday, BW! So glad we could celebrate you today. Love you and love our family. Thank you to everyone for the love and warm wishes — we all feel them,” Moore wrote in the caption of her video.

While the family is staying strong for the actor and feeling grateful for all the love and well-wishes, it is still a very emotional time for them. Many celebrities and fans commented on the post and Emma Heming shared another emotional message to show everyone a different side to the actor’s life post-diagnosis.
