Emma and Matt Willis talk couple's therapy, kids and an EMBARRASSING proposal

Jamie and Sophie are SO EXCITED to welcome Matt and Emma Willis to the studio!

Having been married for sixteen years, Matt and Emma give our NewlyWeds some top tips for a long and happy marriage. The foursome connect over awkward proposals, couple's therapy, and even their Birmingham accents! PLUS, the Newlyweds spill on their week—Sophie’s bossy era, a masseuse who thinks they’re swingers, and Sophie’s wild dream that has Jamie in stitches!

Emma and Matt are the hosts of Love is Blind: UK, which is out now on Netflix! Watch as singles take a bold leap into a less-conventional approach to dating as participants choose a partner to marry without ever meeting face-to-face. Over the weeks, the newly engaged couples move in, plan their weddings, and find out if their physical connection matches their emotional bond. This gripping series will test if love truly is blind.

Thanks for listening x
