Chynna Phillips's husband Billy Baldwin reveals how he REALLY feels about her publicly sharing their family's 'innermost secrets'

Chynna Phillips's husband Billy Baldwin has revealed how he really feels about her publicly sharing their family's 'innermost secrets' - and he made it clear that he thinks his wife should keep the personal details of their relationship off of the internet.

Chynna, 56, has made a series of shocking admissions about her marriage on her YouTube channel, called California Preachin', in recent weeks - speaking in detail about how her newfound Christian faith caused a serious 'rupture' in their relationship and even admitting that they had secretly separated for six months.

But now, her husband of 28 years, Billy, 61, has weighed in on her extreme honesty, and he told her that 'some stuff' she had talked about was not meant to be shared online.

In a new video uploaded to her channel this week, the actor, who was dressed in costume as a British rocker following an 80s party they had attended, and the former musician spoke about finding a 'balance' that allowed her to continued to be open with her followers, while also 'protecting their family.'

Chynna, 56, has made a series of shocking admissions about her marriage on her YouTube channel, called California Preachin', in recent weeks 

Chynna explained that she sometimes struggled with keeping what she was going through to herself because she felt like she was being 'disingenuous' with her viewers. 

'When I first started California Preachin' I was talking about such raw and honest stuff, and then our family started to explode and got a little crazy,' she said. 

'I feel like I have not been able to be as authentic and forthright because I want to obviously protect our family and I also want to be respectful and it's not appropriate. 

But now, her husband of 28 years, Billy, 61, has weighed in on her extreme honesty, and he told her that 'some stuff' she had talked about was not meant to be shared online

'These are things that I can't talk about on a public platform but at the same time I don't want that to be misconstrued as me being disingenuous. 

'It's been really difficult for me. It's like walking a tightrope because I want to be honest but at the same time I can't. I feel badly about that.'

But Billy told his wife that she shouldn't feel bad about it. He explained: '[Most people] don't get on YouTube and talk about all of their family's innermost secrets publicly to everybody. 

'Some of the stuff you just don't talk about and you take to the grave. It's all about balance. 

'You are very open and people love that about you but that doesn't mean you need to talk about about everything, especially if there's going to be implications for other people.'

Billy suggested that from now on, Chynna should focus on discussing 'what's going on in the world' with her followers, and leave the 'personal stuff' out of her videos

Billy suggested that from now on, Chynna should focus on discussing 'what's going on in the world' with her followers, and leave the 'personal stuff' out of her videos.

'People are interested in hearing about what we're struggling with but let's not cross that boundary, that line of dysfunction and intimacy,' he added. 

'There's stuff we shouldn't share publicly, [your viewers] wouldn't share that kind of stuff and they would agree that we shouldn't.'

Back in January, Chynna, who converted to Christianity in 2022, candidly admitted that her faith had caused a divide between her and Billy in a YouTube video.

She claimed that her religion had sparked a 'power struggle' between her and her husband, who she wed in 1995 and has welcomed three kids with.

She shared, 'I've been with Billy for 32 years and we have an awesome marriage but we definitely had the hardest couple years of our marriage these past couple of years, it has been a real struggle. 

'I think it's because I just took the deep dive into Jesus and I think he didn't quite know what to do with that because it was kind of all Jesus all the time.

'We sort of had a power struggle. The Bible says that [wives] are supposed to submit and [men] are the head and that's all true, but it also says that the man is supposed to treat the wife like the church and all of that so I think that I was just struggling with that.'

At the time, the mom-of-three said she and the actor had 'separated for six months,' but she didn't specify when the break occurred. 

Chynna also said that she and Billy feel like they have very little in common lately. 

'Sometimes he's like, "You're not into the things that I'm into. You're not into politics, you're not into wrestling, you're not into the philanthropy things that I do,"' she continued.

'We did a couple of things together and that was amazing and very fulfilling but we've never really found that one thing that the two of us can latch on to and do together as a team and so I'm praying in 2024 that we're going to find that one thing that the two of us can do together that feels really fulfilling.

The two sat then down for an unflinchingly honest on-screen discussion about their marital problems a few weeks later 

They said the former socialite's dedication to Jesus had become a 'glaring issue' that left Billy questioning whether they were going to 'make it in the long run' 

'I am not 23 years old anymore, I met him when I was 23 and I'm changing. I'm growing, you know? 

'I'm not the same person I was 30 years ago and I refuse to have the same marriage that we had 30 years ago. It's time for us to mature and grow.'

The two sat then down for an unflinchingly honest on-screen discussion about their marital problems a few weeks later, and they said the former socialite's dedication to Jesus had become a 'glaring issue' that left Billy questioning whether they were going to 'make it in the long run.'

'You and I have this sort of systemic problem in our relationship, which we have been very honest about from the beginning, which is that you see your life and the world through a very different lens than I do,' Chynna said to Billy. 

'Sometimes that tends to cause ruptures and little chasms in our relationship, and we are trying our best to navigate those differences.

'The 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. 

'You would never divorce me over it - but [I think you wonder], "Will we be able to stay truly happy and connected and thrive with me being on this Jesus trajectory?"'

Billy admitted that her speaking about their brief split had left him 'uncomfortable' because he 'didn't really want it revealed.' 

He also slammed the media for making it sound worse than it was - and insisted that they had 'worked through it and that everything was now fine.'

'The headlines were suggesting that you were in a very taxing or trying relationship, almost like an abusive situation, for a long time that ultimately resulted in a separation,' he said to Chynna.

'It made me feel bad, like it was implying or suggesting that we've had a bad relationship or that you were in an unhealthy situation.'

Chynna stated that she was 'blindsided' by all the articles that came out following her video, and insisted that despite some of their issues, she 'absolutely still loved' Billy.

'My feelings [towards you] have only grown and increased and intensified over the years. And I mean that with all of my heart,' she concluded. 'I love you with all of my heart.'
