Matt Willis exposes super secret world of Scientology that tried to split him and Emma up
Published By admin with Comments 0
Busted star Matt Willis are the hosts of new UK dating show Love Is Blind – a spin off of the chaotic and much-loved US Netflix series.
The pair will be on hand to dish out words of wisdom to the contestants hoping to find love. After being married for 16 years, no doubt the Busted hitmaker and TV presenter will have plenty to offer the single hopefuls.
However, Matt and Emma will be the first to admit their own marriage hasn’t been plain-sailing. Matt has previously revealed how Emma issued him a stark ultimatum over his addiction battles.
The pair then endured another rough patch when Matt became swept up in the secret world of Scientology.
The singer revealed that he became so involved with the Church that he almost left his wife Emma Willis on their advice.
The religion is followed by a number of high profile US stars from Tom Cruise to John Travolta and Elisabeth Moss, but no British stars had publicly shared their involvement until Matt spoke out.
Dad-of-four Matt, told how he became ‘fully invested’ in the religion, spending time at their London headquarters and joining in their practices but became sceptical that leaders were trying to come between him and his TV presenter wife Emma Willis as he develed further into the cult.
His dealings with Scientology began days after he left rehab after seeking treatment for drug and alcohol abuse. Matt said he was walking down London’s Tottenham Court Road when he was approached by a stranger asking him some simple questions.
After having just left a treatment facility, talk of a fulfilled life without drugs, promise of a higher power and the opportunity to like-minded new people reeled in a newly-sober Matt. The following week he followed up an invitation to attend the Scientology headquarters.
“Every single day I went there. I bought different books and did different courses. I was in,” Matt recalled of his first encounters with the Church.
