Emma also offered a sneak peek inside the family's holiday celebrations with their young daughters.
Consider the debate settled: Die Hard is a Christmas movie. This, according to the women in Bruce Willis' life.
Bruce's wife, Emma Heming Willis, shared a video to her Instagram Story on Christmas in which she's watching the classic 1988 action flick. As Bruce commands the screen in a white tank while holding a gun, Emma set the clip to Run D.M.C.'s "Christmas in Hollis" and added a caption that read, "Us too" with a heart hands emoji.
Earlier in the day, Emma offered fans a look inside the family's Christmas celebrations with their two young daughters -- Mabel, 11, and Evelyn, 9 -- as the girls tore into their gifts under the tree. While Bruce didn't appear in the video, Emma showed off their classic stockings embroidered with "Dad" and "Mom."
"From our family to yours, we wish you a very Merry Christmas!! 🎄🎁 🎅🏼," she captioned the post.
The holiday merriment comes amid Bruce's ongoing battle with frontotemporal dementia, also known as FTD, and as a byproduct, aphasia, a brain-mediated inability to speak or to understand speech.
In a personal essay written for Maria Shriver's Sunday Paper last month, Emma candidly addressed her feelings of grief as she cares for her 68-year-old husband.
"I’m holding gratitude as well as grief," she shared. "There is power in becoming an advocate for this community. It's something that I want our kids to see me face out loud, working with others, fighting through the stigma and isolation that a disease like this can bring."
Emma, 45, also reflected on the hope that she feels now that more research is being conducted, and she and her family have become advocates for FTD.
"I have so much more hope today than I did after Bruce was first diagnosed," she wrote. "I understand this disease more now, and I’m now connected to an incredible community of support. I have hope in having found a new purpose—admittedly one I never would have gone looking for—using the spotlight to help and empower others. And I have hope in how our entire family can find joy in the small things, and in coming together to celebrate all the moments life has to offer."
In addition Mabel and Evelyn, Bruce also shares three grown daughters with his ex-wife, Demi Moore. Just last week, the elder Willis girls also chimed in on whether Die Hard is a Christmas movie in an Instagram Q&A.
"I've collected all three Willis girls," Rumer Willis began, documenting a nighttime car ride with her sisters, Tallulah Willis and Scout Willis.
"It's a f**king Christmas movie," said Scout. "It takes place during Christmas."
