"Big Year for Scouter Welcome to the Joy," Scout captioned her Instagram post.

While Bruce battles frontotemporal dementia, he continues to be surrounded by his loved ones who show their unconditional love and support, especially around the holidays.

"16 years with this special man. My love and adoration for him only grows," she posted on Instagram.
Heming and Bruce were originally married in 2009 but celebrated a vow renewal in 2019 with all his children and even his ex-wife Moore.
Heming also shared on her Instagram Stories that she just had a "good cry" with a friend and spoke about how it's so important to have someone to trust with your feelings, "instead of just bottling them up and putting your best foot forward and just kind of soldiering through stuff, which I have a tendency to do."
She continued, "You know, holidays are hard, anniversaries are hard. But for me, this year, it has really been about community, building a community and connection. And I just want to say that has been my lifeline and I just want to thank you for that."
