John Travolta is showing support for his friend, Bruce Willis.
The Grease star, 68, took to Instagram to share a set of throwback photos of himself and the Die Hard actor, 67, with a lengthy, heartfelt, written caption opening up about how he and Willis met, and what makes him such a great friend, following his recent aphasia announcement and decision to step back from acting.
The 68-year-old Pulp Fiction actor took to Instagram last week with a set of photos of him and Willis, as well as an emotional caption about their longstanding friendship.
"To Bruce’s amazing supporters, as a family we wanted to share that our beloved Bruce has been experiencing some health issues and has recently been diagnosed with aphasia, which is impacting his cognitive abilities," his ex-wife, Demi Moore, penned alongside a photo of the Die Hard star.
"As a result of this and with much consideration Bruce is stepping away from the career that has meant so much to him," she wrote on behalf of herself and Willis' children.
"We are moving through this as a strong family unit, and wanted to bring his fans in because we know how much he means to you, as you do to him."
For those who don't know, aphasia is a condition usually caused by an injury or a stroke that affects the part of the brain associated with language and communication. People with aphasia may struggle to speak, read, and listen. There is no known cure for the condition.
While Moore's post was met with countless supportive comments from friends, fans, and other celebrities including Jamie Lee Curtis, Kelly Ripa, Cindy Crawford, and Busy Philipps, Travolta showed his support with a post of his own, paying tribute to Willis.
Accordin to Travolta, it began on the set of Look Who's Talking, and then again on the set of Pulp Fiction.
He then revealed something Willis had said to him years after becoming friends.
Friendship goals, amirite?
His heartfelt message to Willis following his announcement was quickly met with kind words from fans.
