Chynna Phillips fears ‘triggering’ husband Billy Baldwin

Chynna Phillips admitted she and her husband, Billy Baldwin, entered a rough patch in their marriage while going through a cross-country move back to the West Coast recently.

“[It’s] frustrating because just when I feel like we’re on a roll and things are starting to get better, we start the bickering again,” the singer said in a video on her “California Preachin’” YouTube channel Monday.

“I was really proud of myself because we started arguing this morning, and he was like, ‘What do you want?’ And I was like, ‘I want to communicate properly. I want us to have effective communication.’”

Upon hearing that from his wife, the “Backdraft” star regained “his composure” to have a “normal conversation,” but the tense breakdown made her realize she is always adjusting her behavior to meet his needs.

“Billy’s my life partner. He’s the one I want to have the healthiest relationship with … but sometimes I don’t,” she explained.

“A lot of times I don’t because I don’t want to rock the boat, or I don’t want to put him in a bad mood, or I’m walking on eggshells.”

The Wilson Phillips member, 56, admitted she needs to “learn to trust” her husband of more than 30 years instead of focusing on her fear of his reactions.

“It just comes down to me not wanting to trigger him, but the truth is that me having that fear is keeping us from true intimacy, because it’s preventing me from opening up to him, and I’m trying to guard his feelings, and yet I’m causing more trouble in our marriage by doing that,” she said.

“I’m shooting myself in the foot.”

Phillips revealed in January that she and the “Gossip Girl” actor, 61, had separated for six months after she took a “deep dive into Jesus.”

“I think he didn’t quite know what to do with that because it was kind of all Jesus, all the time,” she said, though she did not specify when the separation took place.

The “Hold On” singer married Baldwin in 1995. She filed for divorce in 2010, but the couple reconciled and she withdrew the filing.
