Tallulah Willis says she has autism – something she says she recently learned about.
Bruce Willis‘ daughter shared the news with her more than 400,000 Instagram followers on Friday … as she wrote alongside a video of her and her A-list dad: “Tell me you’re autistic without telling me that You are autistic.”

In the resurfaced footage, Tallulah can be seen rubbing her father’s bald head repeatedly as he gave a red carpet interview. Tallulah’s older sister Scout responded to the video saying that the actress is “stimming” in the clip.
For those who don’t know… stimming is defined as the repetitive performance of a certain physical movement – and it is a common behavior in people with autism.
This is the first time Tallulah has spoken about having autism, something she explained she discovered over the summer… something she says changed her life.
This revelation comes a month after Tallulah gave a candid update about her recovery from an eating disorder. Tallulah first spoke about her struggle with anorexia in May 2023.
Nine months later, Bruce’s daughter with his ex-wife Demi Moore confessed that she was “romanticizing unhealthy times” and wanted to share the update to feel less alone. She encouraged herself and her followers to remember that it’s okay to not have everything figured out.
In addition to Tallulah’s health journey, the Willis family has rallied around Bruce following his frontotemporal dementia diagnosis. Bruce’s Wife – Who He Shares Daughters With Mabel It is Evelyn – said in September that it is unclear what the actor knows about his condition.
The Willis family can come together in difficult times…that’s for sure.
