Emma Willis: The Voice host in emotional admission about 'hard' time with husband Matt

Emma Willis, 43, and Matt Willis, 36, have been married since 2008 and recently renewed their vows in 2018 surrounded by family and friends. However, the couple encountered problems shortly after they started dating in 2005 when Matt went into rehab for alcohol and drug addiction.

The Busted star returned to rehab several times over a period of three years, but achieved sobriety in 2008.

Emma recently got emotional as she admitted she couldn’t give any advice to someone in a similar situation.

“Oh God, I’m going to start crying. Isabelle was his real focus. 

“He was already doing it [recovery] himself, then she arrived and that made him even more determined.”

The TV personality was then quizzed by the publication about her advice for those who are struggling with addiction.

She admitted: “I wish I knew, I’d make a b****y fortune. I’m not an addict, so it’s a really hard thing to understand. 

 

He explained: “I think they enjoy it more the older they get funnily enough. 

“We’re quite rude when we play live, we swear a lot. Considering we were perceived as a pop band our crowd is f***ing rough and really raucous and energetic and they have a great time, they go crazy.”

The Year 3000 hitmaker went on to admit his shows with the band are not exactly family friendly.

He continued: “We’re at a stage now where our gigs are really exciting and my kids will be like, ‘Oh my god, what is happening?’ It’s quite a full on experience for them. 

“That many people jumping up and down and pushing into each other is quite intimidating.”

Matt also got candid about his bad language on stage, as he added: “Their daddy saying f**k all the time on stage isn’t a good look.”

The musician also said being away from Emma and their kids is the “worst” part of his career, explaining: “It’s the worst part of my job. Everything I do takes me away from home unless it’s theatre.”

The Voice airs tonight at 8.30pm on ITV.
