Billy Baldwin and his wife, Chynna Phillips, think theyโve solved the puzzle of maintaining a healthy and happy marriage โย and the secret is living apart.
The couple is gearing up to celebrate their 30-year wedding anniversary in 2025 and got personal about their unconventional living situation, revealing that not only do they shack up in separate houses, but they stay in different area codes.
The Wilson Phillips singer, 56, went into detail on their housing situation in a videoย posted to her YouTube channel on Sunday, Nov. 3.
โBilly and I are sort of in this new kind of arrangement that is actually really working for me. I donโt know if itโs working for Billster, but Iโm really happy with what weโre doing,โ Phillips joked. โBasically, itโs totally unstructured โฆ let me explain.โย
She continued, โI said to Billy, โLook, why donโt we just do a little test run to see what it feels like to have me in Santa Barbara, you in Beverly Hills, and then we flip-flop. Then in between, we have date nights together, we have therapy, we have dinner with the children and we go to the beach or the museum.โ
For reference, Santa Barbara is roughly 100 miles from Beverly Hills and over a two-hour drive without traffic.
Baldwin, 61, and Phillips said โI doโ in 1995. The pair share three children: daughters Jameson, 24, and Brooke, 19, and son Vance, 22.
The โHold Onโ singer shared that while the married duo โhave sleepovers and stuff,โ they arenโt โforcing ourselves to be subjected to each otherโs energy 24/7.โ
Phillips revealed that Baldwin โis a bit more reticent about the whole thing,โ but he was willing to give their separate living situation a try.
Later in the video, she calls her husband, who appears on the screen via FaceTime.
โI think that weโre onto something,โ Phillips told Baldwin in the footage. โI really do, because we enjoy each otherโs company. Itโs so hard to articulate to people that weโre madly in love, we really enjoy being around one another, we cherish our marriage, we donโt ever want to separate. We just need a little time apart because we are sort of an allergy to one another. And itโs okay. Iโm sure lots of different couples are allergies to each other.โ
Baldwin didnโt necessarily agree, telling her, โThe reality is you have the allergy, I have a certain energy that makes you have a โ see your back just tweaked just now.โ He added, โYou do things that, you know, sort of alter my energy sometimes.โ
Phillips also joked about the Ten Commandments, laughing that sheโll โsubmitโ to her husband when sheโs around.
โWhere in the Bible does it say that I have to live under the same roof 24/7 with my husband? Can you please find me that scripture?โ she asked. โI mean, I have to take care of him, I have to be kind to him, I have to be gentle to him. I have to obey him or,ย what is the word, submit.โย
She adds, โI will submit when Iโm around.โ
They have been open about the struggles in their union, revealing earlier this year that they separated for six months after having a โrough heart to heart together.โ
In March, The Post obtained photos of Baldwin and Phillips appearing to be locked in a heated conversation.
Despite the ups and downs, Phillips credited open communication and faith for weathering them through the storm.
โThe Christianity aspect has been sort of a glaring issue for a while because [religion] has sort of overtaken my life in many ways. It has perhaps even made you question whether you and I can really make it in the long run,โ she said to Baldwin in a separate video shared in February.
Baldwin responded, โBut I still absolutely love you, absolutely adore you, and completely support you. Thatโs why Iโm sitting here now. Thatโs why we go to church together. Thatโs why we pray together. Thatโs why we talk about faith together, Thatโs why I do this stuff for you โฆ Itโs because Iโm a supportive, loving husband who adores his wife and wants to spend the rest of my life with you, no question.โ
