The 67-year-old star was captured holding hands with the couple’s eight-year-old daughter, Evelyn, while she was roller-skating in their garage.

Passionate dad: Bruce Willis appeared in good spirits when he appeared in a video uploaded to his wife Emma Heming’s Instagram on Saturday. The 67-year-old star was captured holding hands with the couple’s eight-year-old daughter, Evelyn, while she was roller-skating in their garage.
In the touching Instagram footage, Evelyn – who celebrated her eighth birthday on Thursday – focused on keeping her balance while her father watched over her.
As a precaution, Evelyn wore pink knee pads and a yellow helmet to go with her shorts and t-shirt.
Always one to bring humor to a situation, the Die Hard legend decided to get into the dance as he continued to hold his baby girl’s hand tight.
Despite his frail health, the father-of-five looked fitter than ever while moving in front of the camera in blue jeans and a gray t-shirt.
