Bruce Willis’ daughter Tallulah gives frank health disorder update

‘There’s such a community in this struggle and I want so badly to share how I achieved my wins and help rescue all the sweet picked faces of the world!’ she wrote.

Tallulah was flooded with grateful comments from fans, with @maxncheeez saying they ‘felt so seen’, while @indigowanderess added: ‘Thank you so much for sharing! I struggle with picking and hair pulling and I feel like it’s such a misunderstood symptom of trauma that it’s so validating to see someone sharing it publicly.’

‘I so appreciate how openly you discuss this,’ shared @jemesii, while actress and comedian Chelsea Handler posted: ‘Beautiful inside and out YOU ARE. Picking or no picking.’

Although she didn’t expand on her own experiences with the condition in this post, Tallulah has previously discussed it, posting pictures back in November and sharing her pride over not having picked her skin ‘in months’.

‘Swipe to see the past consequences of this compulsive and not nearly talked about enough disorder!!’ she added, alongside pictures of a very sore bottom lip and angry-looking patches around her nose.

Skin picking is often linked to OCD, ADHD, body dysmorphic disorder, repetitive hair pulling disorder (trichotillomania) and other mental health conditions – as well as skin conditions like acne and eczema.

It can also be linked to those on the autism spectrum, as it can be a form of sensory self-regulation.

She shared it alongside video footage of her as a child being held in the arms of her Hollywood star father Bruce on the red carpet, where she could be seen repeatedly rubbing his head and playing with his ear.

As sister Scout, 32, pointed out in the comments, ‘She’s stimming’, which refers to self-stimulatory behaviour, which is seen most prominently in people with autism and ADHD.

‘Tell me your [sic] autistic without telling me your [sic] autistic,’ Tallulah quipped in the captioned of her post.

In the comments section, she the revealed: ‘Actually this is the first time I’ve ever publicly shared my diagnosis.

‘Found out this summer and it’s changed my life.’
