“It’s clear that there’s still a lot of education that needs to be put forth,–So this one is going out to the photographers and the video people that are trying to get those exclusives of my husband out and about. Just keep your space. I know this is your job, but maybe just keep your space. For the video people, please don’t be yelling at my husband asking him how he’s doing or whatever – the woohoo-ing and the yippee ki yays … just don’t do it. OK?”
Heming Willis agreed that it is a part of their job and she takes no issue with them doing their jobs. She just wants them to respect their boundary and also allow them to do their job without the extra hassle.
“Give him his space. Allow for our family or whoever’s with him that day to be able to get him from point A to point B safely.”
