Matt Willis of McBusted says he’s much happier now he’s swapped his partying for a more healthy lifestyle.
The bassist, who spent time in rehab as a member of Busted before merging with members of McFly in 2013, enjoys a much slower pace with new bandmate Dougie Poynter.
Willis tells the Metro: “I’m currently on a health kick – I’ve just got a gym, which helps. I’m up at 6am and boom.”
On tour, he adds, “Dougie and I smoke cigars, snuggle up watching Sex And The City.”
