Summary

Busted bass player, Matt Willis, started the band at 21 years-old. With two BRIT Awards and two studio albums to his name, Matt’s fast-paced life in Busted left him in a bad place after the band's difficult split. He went on to become a star of the stage and screen, including winning I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! Matt opens up about facing addiction, why he’s loves being in the band all over again, and how he’s now settled down (but struggles with homeschooling in lockdown!). Learn more about your ad choices.
