I'm Anna Williamson.

If we haven't met before, I'm a relationship therapist, coach and TV personality, and in this podcast, we're going behind closed doors to explore one of the most complicated, painful and fascinating parts of modern relationships, infidelity, because affairs are everywhere, and yet we rarely talk about them honestly.

From emotional affairs and secret relationships to the devastating aftermath of betrayal, each episode brings you a real-life story told by the people who lived it.

Thank you for having me, Anna.

Hey, I'm your host Ellie Thompson, and today I'm joined by presenter, relationship expert and counsellor Anna Williamson.

Anna is the host of the hugely successful podcast The Affair which takes an honest judgment-free look at infidelity from every side of the story.

Today we're talking about why people have affairs, what infidelity can reveal about a relationship, the impact it has on families and whether it's ever truly possible to rebuild trust afterwards.

It deliberately looks at infidelity without immediately assigning the heroes and the villains.

So what made you want to tackle such a loaded subject and what's been the biggest surprise from the reaction to the podcast so far?
