“Amy and I are separated,” Matt says in the clip obtained by RadarOnline.com.

“Last year it was long, long and tough. Amy and I had a lot of tensions. Right around Thanksgiving I moved over to the bridal house for a little bit, we’ll try that. Amy and I stuck it out for years when maybe we shouldn’t have.”

Revealing that they weren’t always happy, Matt explains his drastic measures.

“I never quite felt quite at home in my own home. Something needed to change, we needed to trying something differ,” so he chose a “trial separation,” which was not the choice his wife would have made.
