I really like that someone with such a high public profile, and greatly admired as a strong female role model, is opening up about this. I do hope that it will help to destigmatise the process of couples’ therapy and demonstrate to others how useful it can be to maintain the strength in a relationship.

It needn’t be a measure of last resort, but rather a fantastic tool to keep a healthy and open balance in partnership.
