Emily Willis' father has given fans an update on the adult film star as he revealed she's awake after a coma.
The porn star, who boasts over two million followers on Instagram, was recently hospitalized and thought to be in a 'vegetative state', with concern over her future as she 'fought for her life'.
In a new update, the star's stepfather Michael told TMZ that the adult actress is now awake, can smile, follow with her eyes and that she 'became emotional' when her family spoke to her.

Whilst being awake and out of her coma is a positive sign, Michael gave some devastating news as he revealed that unfortunately Emily is not thought to be advancing in her recovery or expected to get much better.
Michael has previously updated fans as he told TMZ that the adult star was in rehab for eight days before she suffered a cardiac arrest on February 5.
He explained that Emily was determined to get healthy and was committed to treatment.
A toxicology report revealed there were no drugs in the actress' system when she collapsed and went into cardiac arrest, and her family have been quick to dismiss and deny any rumours that she overdosed.
Michael finished his update as he revealed that her family plans to take her close to her family home in St. George, Utah.
The recent GoFundMe page set up by family has surpassed its target of $60,000, now sitting at more than $66,000.
The page reads: "With hearts heavier than we ever imagined possible, we find ourselves reaching out for support and care for our beloved Emily Willis—a cherished daughter, sister, and a beacon of light in the lives of all who know her. Recently, Emily's world, and ours, was turned upside down when she was admitted to the hospital, marking the beginning of an incredibly tough and unforeseen battle. With every ounce of her remarkable strength and bravery, Emily is fighting."
