Emma Heming Willis one-upped trolls who claimed she is using her husband's illness to get her "five minutes" of fame.

Willis has used Instagram as a platform to update fans on husband Bruce Willis' condition, first informing them of his initial diagnosis of aphasia in the spring of 2022 and then his more specific diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) last month.

More recently, she took to Instagram to plea with paparazzi to "keep your space" as well as to solicit advice for helping her husband navigate day to day life from medical professionals or anyone with similar experiences.

Some critics, however, commented on her posts she is using Bruce's illness for her personal gain. Emma addressed the trolls on Instagram earlier this week, noting she "didn't come to play."

You can watch her full video below.

She captioned her video:

"Just over here turning my 5 mins into 10."
"I've sat around quietly for too long and I'm so ready to be embraced by this solid and loving community my family and I find ourselves in while trying to lift them up in return."
"Let's go."

In her video, she stated:

"I just saw something about me getting my 'five minutes,' which is great, which means that you're listening."
"So, I'm going to take my five minutes and I'm gonna turn it into 10 because I'm always going to advocate for my husband."

She continued:

"While I'm at it, I'm going to raise awareness around FTD and for caregivers who are our unsung heroes out there."
"And then, I am gonna turn my grief and my anger and my sadness and do something good around something that feels less than."

Emma finished, with a message for her critics:

"So watch this space, because I didn't come to play."

Viewers—including stepdaughter Scout—applauded Emma's message as well as her commitment to spreading awareness and advocating for the FTD community.

Even Trump's NASA Director Had To Set Kim Kardashian Straight After She Said The Moon Landing 'Didn't Happen'

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy—who is also NASA's Acting Administrator—issued the weirdest fact-check ever when he corrected reality star Kim Kardashian after she revealed herself to be a moon landing conspiracist.

Conspiracy theorists have long alleged the moon landing was fabricated by NASA in what they claim was an elaborate hoax—and Kardashian certainly made it clear where she stands in a video speaking to co-star Sarah Paulson on the set of the new Hulu drama All’s Fair.

Biggest Financial Mistakes People Make In Their 20s

It can be really fun to experience something for the first time that you've never really had before, like a disposable income.

For the average person, there isn't generally a lot of excess money to spend frivolously when they're a child, so when they hit their twenties and have their first "real" or "more important" job, they might find themselves in a position to enjoy some of the finer things in life.

Special Olympics Fires Back At Kid Rock With Powerful Statement After He Used 'The R-Word' To Describe Halloween Costume

MAGA singer Kid Rock was called out by Loretta Claiborne, the Chief Inspiration Officer of the Special Olympics, after he used the "r-word"—a known ableist slur—to describe his Halloween costume this year.

Kid Rock, whose real name is Robert James Ritchie, was speaking with Fox News host Jesse Watters when he donned a face mask and said he'd be going as a "r**ard" for Halloween. Watters had guessed he was dressed as Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases who spearheaded the nation's COVID-19 pandemic response.
