Hollywood couples have always fascinated us. From iconic pairs like Bogey and Bacall to Brad and Angelina, their relationships have provided glimpses into their glamorous lives. One couple that has always caught our attention is Bruce Willis and Demi Moore. After their divorce, it seemed like the public became even more curious about them. In a way, their divorce might have even strengthened their bond. Let’s take a look at their story and how they’ve managed to maintain a strong friendship.
Their First Meeting
In 1987, Demi Moore was engaged to actor Emilio Estevez. They had met on the set of St. Elmo’s Fire and became engaged soon after. Demi attended the premiere of Emilio’s film Stakeout, where she met Bruce Willis at an after-party.
Demi had heard some things about Bruce and wasn’t expecting much from their first encounter. However, she found him to be a charming and gallant man, far from the “jerk” she had expected.
A Number and A Limo
Bruce asked for Demi’s phone number during their conversation at the party. Without paper, he let her write it on his arm. Later, Demi was surprised when Bruce showed up beside her car on the freeway, calling out to her from his limo.
Fiancée No More
Demi ended her engagement with Emilio soon after meeting Bruce. She had been in the relationship for two years, but her feelings changed quickly after meeting Bruce.
Vegas Wedding
Bruce and Demi had a spontaneous wedding in Las Vegas after joking about it during their trip. They tied the knot at the Golden Nugget suite, just four months after meeting. They later had a larger ceremony in Hollywood, complete with a star-studded guest list.
A Family Begins
Soon after marrying, Bruce and Demi were expecting their first child. Their daughter, Rumer, was born in 1988, just nine months later.
Raising a Family
After Rumer’s birth, the couple decided to leave Hollywood’s spotlight and move to Idaho. They bought a ranch and lived a quieter, more private life.
A Strong Friendship
Despite their divorce, Bruce and Demi have managed to remain close friends. They work hard to keep their relationship amicable, even spending holidays and family events together.
Quarantined Together
During the pandemic, Bruce and Demi, along with their daughters, quarantined together, showing how well they’ve maintained their bond. Even through tough times, like Bruce’s health struggles, their family remains united.
