Andrea McLean turned to marriage counselling to help her husband deal with her breakdown.
The 50-year-old TV presenter recently spoke about going to couple’s therapy with her husband Nick Feeney during an episode of Loose Women – but Andrea has now clarified the reason behind their decision.
Andrea – who has been married to Nick since 2017 – explained: “We did it because I was going through a tough time, obviously I’ve now said on air I was having a breakdown.
“It was so he could know how to help me, obviously I didn’t want to talk about that at the time.
