Emma Heming Gets Real About Anniversary Feels: ‘Heavy’ With Love and a Side of Heartache

Buy Me A Coffee

Emma Heming isn’t sugarcoating anything about life’s rollercoaster, especially when it comes to celebrating milestones with her hubby, Bruce Willis. After Bruce’s aphasia diagnosis took a plot twist into full-on frontotemporal dementia, anniversaries have become less of a champagne-popping fest and more of a “pass the tissues and chocolate” kind of deal.

The power couple just hit their 17th-anniversary jackpot on Sunday (December 29), and Emma celebrated by dropping a social media tribute sweeter than a triple-layer chocolate cake. But this wasn’t your usual “love you to the moon and back” post—it came with a side of real talk.

When Love is Heavy but Worth It
“17 years of us ❤️,” Emma began her Instagram love letter, serving up a throwback photo that practically screamed, “We were so cute back then.” But then she hit us with the truth bomb: anniversaries used to be about sparkly dinners and corny Hallmark cards, but now? They’re more like emotional boot camp.

“Now, if I’m honest, they stir up all the feelings, leaving a heaviness in my heart and a pit in my stomach,” she confessed. Basically, it’s like her brain is DJ-ing a mix of Beyoncé’s “Halo” and Adele’s “Someone Like You” on repeat.

The Feelings Buffet
Emma revealed her secret to managing the emotional rollercoaster: she sets a timer for 30 minutes. That’s right, 30 whole minutes of wallowing in the why us spiral—complete with anger, grief, and probably an ugly cry. Then, like a champ, she picks herself up, dusts off her mascara-streaked cheeks, and gets back to the business of love.

“And what is… is unconditional love,” she wrote, serving us a masterclass in emotional resilience. Emma basically took lemons, turned them into lemonade, and then spiked it with tequila because she’s that strong.

Still Head Over Heels
Despite the heartbreak and heaviness, Emma made one thing crystal clear: Bruce is still her guy, her ride-or-die, her forever crush. “I’d do it all over again and again in a heartbeat 💞,” she gushed, proving that love—even the heavy kind—is worth it.
