We all know eating disorders like to destroy things.

They destroy physical health, mental wellbeing, career scope, educational paths, memories and moments….and relationships too.

Today’s episode sees us chatting with Vicki and Rich, who give us a candid insight into what life is like for couples navigating eating disorder distress and recovery.

Rich speaks openly about how he learned to understand the impact anorexia and bulimia were having on the woman he loved, and he reveals how his own health and resilience suffered in his effort to be the tower of strength to his wife.

Vicki tells of the manipulation with which the eating disorder continued to try to come between her and her husband – but how the couple ultimately united in their desire to call an end to the illness once and for all.
