Emma Willis recently shared how her marriage to Matt Willis needs “work” – but is insistent that she will not let divorce happen.
The showbiz couple first met in 2004 when Emma was hosting MTV and Matt was at the height of his fame as a member of Busted. The pair tied the knot in 2008, and now share three children named Isabelle, Ace and Trixie.
However, recently, Emma – who hosts The Voice UK – admitted that their marriage needs “work”.

Emma explained: “The wedding isn’t the destination, it’s the lasting part that is. As we’ve gotten older and more mature and settled, we have realised that as long as we communicate, we can avoid sitting on resentments or creating the kind of environment that leads to getting divorced.”
She added: “I won’t allow that to happen to us – and I won’t let him do it either!”

“But it’s only been beneficial and it’s only been another little core thing that we do. It’s awesome.”
