Matt Willis is preparing for a new tour with his band Busted – and he’s terrified a fresh drink and drugs relapse could end his marriage and his life
Matt Willis is preparing for a new tour with his band Busted – and he’s terrified. The bassist and singer, 40, has battled with alcohol and drugs for as long as he can remember, and fears another relapse would end his marriage to his TV star wife Emma – and his life.
Now Matt is exploring what makes him an addict in a new documentary Matt Willis: Fighting Addiction and investigating how to avoid another crisis. “I knew I was an addict long before I got clean,” says Matt. “I just tried to hide it, and then it was unhideable, thenit was just about saying ‘sorry’ every five minutes, but still doing it, and then those sorrys mean nothing.”“I was going to lose everything. I wanted to stay alive,” explains Matt. “I didn’t want to die and at that point it was very clear thatMatt credits Emma with helping him through his darkest days.
Matt also sees a therapist, who explains why he can’t remember large chunks of his early years, and has committed to more therapy to try to tackle his demons and avoid a relapse. One of the things Matt does to stay sober is to start every day with a gratitude journal and his love for his family features heavily.
