Scout Willis gets support from her boyfriend Jake Miller as they take their rescue dog for a walk in Los Angeles…following the news of her father Bruce’s dementia diagnosis
Scout Willis seemed smitten with her longtime boyfriend, Jake Miller, as she took a casual walk with her beloved rescue dog, Grandma, in Los Angeles on Wednesday.
The 31-year-old singer and her boyfriend walked down the sidewalk hand in hand, with their four-legged family member close to her mom.
At one point, Scout turned to her right and shared a virtual kiss with her mate, pursing her lips.
Jake then put an arm around Scout, who gently rested her head against his chest.
Scout kept it casual in the fashion department by wearing brown lace-up pants, which looked like sweatpants, with a baggy blue sweatshirt and black boots.

The middle child of Bruce and Demi’s three daughters wore her dark brown hair loose and appeared makeup-free.
In keeping with her laid-back afternoon, Miller kept it comfortable in black shorts with gray stripes, a white T-shirt, and black sneakers.
The musician also sported a scruffy beard and mustache to match his short dark hair.
Scout has been dating Jake, who is a musician, for over four years and they are often photographed spending time together in Los Angeles.
The heartbreaking news that his father Bruce’s aphasia, a neurological disorder, has progressed to a diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) was revealed just six days ago.
FTD affects the lobes of the brain behind the forehead, which deal with behaviour, problem solving, planning and emotions, with symptoms including personality changes, obsessive behavior and speech difficulties.
In the statement, attributed to Bruce’s wife Emma Heming, ex-wife Demi and their five daughters, the family shared on their respective social media platforms.
“Our family wanted to begin by expressing our deepest gratitude for the incredible outpouring of love, support and wonderful stories we have all received since sharing Bruce’s original diagnosis,” the statement began.

Heartbreaking: The couple’s dog walk came six days after their blended family revealed that their father, Bruce Willis, had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD), which was less than a year after he retired from the performance due to diagnosis of brain disorder, aphasia.
He would go on to reveal that they now have ‘a deeper understanding of what you are experiencing’.
While the news of her dementia diagnosis is “painful,” there is a kind of sense of “relief to finally have a clear diagnosis,” the family said.
Along with Scout, Willis and Moore’s nearly 13-year marriage also produced two other daughters: Rumer, 34, who is currently pregnant with their first child, and Tallulah, 29.
The Die Hard action hero also has two younger daughters: Mabel, 10, and Evelyn, eight, with his second wife, Emma, whom he married in March 2009.
