Billy Baldwin moved into a guesthouse located 50 yards away from wife Chynna Phillips, as the couple navigates ongoing marriage struggles after more than 30 years together.
The couple, who married in 1995 and share three adult children named Jameson, Vance, and Brooke, discussed their relationship in an Instagram video posted on Saturday, November 7. Phillips and Baldwin are promoting their upcoming YouTube series titled Holding On,
which is scheduled to premiere on November 17.
In the promotional footage for their new series, the couple detailed their different communication styles and emotional needs. Baldwin described himself as intense and focused on getting things done, while Phillips said she prefers a more relaxed approach to life. Baldwin also remarked in the video footage that sometimes his communication style causes Phillips to have a nervous breakdown.
Phillips offered a blunt assessment of their relationship prior to the living arrangement change. Literally our marriage was going down like the Titanic, and Billy moved 50 yards away from me in the guesthouse, and so far, so good. It’s kind of working. I’m not really sure what’s going to come of it, but hey, I’m not fighting it,
Phillips said.
Phillips also questioned the traditional expectation of sharing a roof, asking in the footage, Where in the Bible does it say I have to live under the same roof as my husband?
This is not the first time the couple has lived in separate residences. Back in November 2024, Phillips stayed in Santa Barbara while Baldwin lived in Beverly Hills. At that time, Phillips described a sort of allergy to one another
while emphasizing that they did not want to separate permanently.
By January 2025, the pair had moved back in together before shifting to their current arrangement with Baldwin residing in the nearby guesthouse. Phillips noted that working through their issues in real time for the camera has proved to be a cathartic experience.

The new YouTube series titled Holding On
is scheduled to launch on November 17.
