Get ready to enter the pods, because Love Is Blind is finally coming to the UK and we can't wait for dates, engagements, weddings and, of course, drama. But, how long have hosts Matt and Emma Willis been together?
The Netflix series is finally coming over to this side of the pond, and we'll see singles date and choose someone to marry without ever meeting them. Then, the newly-engaged couples move in together, plan their wedding and find out if love really is blind.
Matt and Emma Willis will be hosting the British version of the hit dating series, and if you're as nosy as we are, then here is Matt and Emma Willis' complete relationship timeline. You're welcome, Love Is Blind fans!
Matt and Emma Willis' complete relationship timeline
2004
Matt and Emma first met and began dating back in 2004, when he was at the height of fame with his band Busted ('Air Hostess' and 'Crashed The Wedding' are still bops, FYI!) and Emma was a presenter for MTV.
2007
Three years later, Matt and Emma got engaged during a trip to Venice for her birthday. Then, one year later, they married in a star-studded ceremony at Rushton Hall, Northamptonshire (see all the gorg pics here). So romantic!
Plus, in 2008, the couple presented coverage for the BRIT Awards together. Just a casual date night then, yeah?
2009
In 2009, the couple announced they were expecting their first child, a daughter named Isabelle, who they welcomed in the same year. Then, in 2011, they welcomed their son, Ace.
2016
In between Emma's presenting jobs such as The Voice and Big Brother and Matt's thriving music career in Busted and McBusted (that's the amalgamation of the two most iconic boybands of the 2000s, Busted and McFly, BTW!), the couple welcomed their third child, Trixie, in 2016.
2018
To celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary, Matt and Emma renewed their vows. In an Instagram post at the time, Matt wrote about Emma, "I aactually managed to hang on to her for 10 years... I’m still not sure how? I know I’m punching before you all comment that! I am the luckiest guy in the world.
"I get to spend the rest of my life with this kind beautiful powerful woman. She is the most amazing wife and mother and I could not be more proud to be her husband. Thank you for the best years of my life." We can't cope 🥹.
2023
Last year, Matt opened up about his lengthy struggle with addiction in a BBC documentary, Matt Willis: Addiction and Me. In the doc, we learn that he spent four weeks in rehab before his marriage to Emma, coming out just the day before their wedding.
2024
Love Is Blind UK time! Matt and Emma are joining forces to present the Netflix dating series, and we can't wait. Yes, Netflix, we're still watching!
Love Is Blind UK is coming to Netflix on 7th August.
