What does it actually take to make a marriage last for over 20 years?
This week on Tea At Four, hosts Billy and Christie sit down with UK power couple Matt and Emma Willis for an incredibly honest conversation about the realities of long-term love, communication, and modern relationships.
Emma opens up about why she initially resisted couples therapy - admitting she thought she "didn't have trauma" - and how a single neutral session transformed the way they communicate. They also share why you should stop trying to change your partner and the truth behind those wild internet headlines (including a fake hot tub row and a proposal interrupted by Busted fans).
Plus, we ask them to play Agony Aunt and Uncle to answer your relationship dilemmas: Should you care if your partner won't post you on social media? And how do you handle a partner who is reluctant to go to therapy?
Finally, Matt and Emma give us the inside scoop on hosting the highly anticipated series of Love Is Blind UK on Netflix, what to expect from the couples, and the release schedule details you need to know.
