Now that you've brought up the personal problems of former Busted star Matt Jay, a story that's been doing the rounds for a few days, but we've yet to report on here in the CMU Daily. According to the Mirror's 3am girls, Jay has cut off contact with former bandmate James Bourne while he undergoes treatment at the Priory for his drink problem.
A
"close pal" of Jay's told the tabloid: "Matt's phone is turned off and no one can get hold of him. Obviously,
James is really worried about him but Matt's therapists think isolation is for the best. The only person he has allowed to visit him is [on / off girlfriend] Emma. Contrary to what has been reported, it was Em who dropped him off at the clinic and she'll pick him up when he's finished there."
Another source told the paper that Jay's drinking got more intense after the sudden break up of the band: "Matt probably took the break up of the band the hardest. He was left with too much time on his hands and lots of mates who wanted to drag him to the nearest bar."
If you ask me, what that boy needs is a West End musical to occupy all that spare time.
