Phil Collins on Piers Morgan Uncensored: The 7 Biggest Revelations
Collins said drop foot, five knee operations and sudden deafness have kept him from playing drums for about 15 years.
On Friday, 75-year-old music legend Phil Collins appeared on Piers Morgan Uncensored, where he disclosed, "I regret my marriages falling apart." The appearance coincides with his November Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction.
Collins married three times, resulting in five children including Lily and Simon. He said his marriage to Jill Tavelman ended "because I wasn't there," as Genesis toured constantly throughout the late 1970s.
Due to chronic health issues including sudden deafness and drop foot, Collins remains unable to play drums. He has not performed on the instrument in 15 years, struggling to hold the stick properly.
Repairing past fractures, Collins now shares a group chat with his five children and recently enjoyed a "moving" dinner with them last Christmas. They interact "like a real family," he said.
Having made amends with Paul McCartney after years of public speculation, Collins currently focuses on his health. He remains active in public discourse, expressing "99% of the time" support for Morgan's show.
