Matt Willis is better known in the UK, where he was part of the pop band Busted and starred in a number of reality shows, and he's married to another reality TV figure in England, Emma Willis, but the story Matt is telling about his brief foray into Scientology has reached our shores, and it's a doozy.

He was only in Scientology for about three months, but the detail that the press has seized on is that he says he felt pressured to divorce Emma almost right away in order to make progress on the church's Bridge to Total Freedom.

"They were like, 'There's someone in your life who's actually draining you, who's a negative force, and it's normally the person closest to you'. And it's like, I think they're trying to split my fucking marriage up now," he told The Sun.
