The Voice UK's Anne-Marie opens up on anxiety struggle in candid on-camera discussion

Anne-Marie has bravely opened up on her struggle with anxiety in a candid chat wit The Voice colleague Will.I.Am, with the touching moment going out on air as the ITV show continued on Saturday night.

Anne-Marie, who has had massive hits in the charts with the likes of Ciao Adios, 2002 and Rockabye, is hoping to extend her winning streak on the talent programme, having had a very successful start to life as a coach last year. She and Will.I.Am were seen chatting on screen as The Voice returned from an ad break, with Will.I.Am seeming both shocked and impressed by Anne- Marie's workload as he remarked: "You had four singles out last year, an album, you were on The Voice and you wrote a book?"

Anne-Marie replied: "During the process of the album I started doing therapy and, during the process of the album, I wrote about about it." Will.I.Am then asked: "Do you struggle with anxiety?" to which Anne-Marie told him: "Yeah I do, that's why I went to therapy," before the Black Eyed Peas star admitted it was something he also battles, adding: "There's a lot of folks that struggle with that."
