GRANDPA BRUCE
Louetta's birth comes amid the decline of Bruce's health due to a diagnosis of aphasia.
On February 16, 2023, Bruce's eldest daughter Rumer took to Instagram to announce her famous father's aphasia has progressed.
He now has a more specific diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia - a distinctive form of dementia that affects language and behavior.
She revealed: "Our family wanted to start by expressing our deepest gratitude for the incredible outpouring of love, support, and wonderful stories we have all received since sharing Bruce’s original diagnosis.
"In the spirit of that, we wanted to give you an update about our beloved husband, father and friend since we now have a deeper understanding of what he is experiencing.
"Unfortunately, challenges with communication are just one symptom of the disease Bruce faces.
"While this is painful, it is a relief to finally have a clear diagnosis."
