She added: “What I will say is what I tell my children, which is that it is important to meet them where they are, and not to cling to what is not the case.” “Because there is amazing beauty and sweetness and love and joy in that.”

Moore and Willis have remained close since their divorce in 2000, often getting together to support their three daughters – Rumer, Scout and Tallulah. The family regularly posts snapshots of them on their social media accounts. The two were married for 13 years.

When asked: “What message would you give to people who have family members with dementia?” “When you give up who they are or who you think they are,” Moore answered on Andy Cohen's Sirius XM show [should be]or even whoever you want them to be, you can then really stay in the present.”
