đź’” Estranged Relationship with Twin Brother Luke
One of the most heartbreaking aspects of Matt Goss’s personal life is his estranged relationship with his twin brother and former bandmate, Luke Goss. Despite the global success of Bros, Matt and Luke are currently not on speaking terms, something that has deeply saddened Matt.
In a recent interview, Matt opened up about the painful rift between them. He described Luke as "the love of my life and my best mate," and expressed his confusion and sadness over their current estrangement. The brothers’ relationship once formed the backbone of Bros, with their undeniable chemistry propelling the band to stardom. However, personal differences and misunderstandings have since torn them apart.

In interviews, Matt has reflected on two significant events that have had a lasting impact on his emotional well-being: the tragic loss of their sister Carolyn in a car accident when they were just 18, and the death of their mother in 2014.
The death of his mother, in particular, deeply affected Matt. He described how it led him to experience PTSD and left him with a sense of grief that he still grapples with today. In a poignant interview, he explained that he has never truly healed from the loss, acknowledging that the pain still lingers, even after all these years. Despite this, Matt has continued to push forward with his music, using it as a form of therapy to cope with the emotional weight of these losses.
For Matt, these personal challenges have shaped the way he views the world and his music. His songs, both old and new, carry with them the echoes of his past struggles, but also a sense of hope.
