Phillip David Charles Collins, more commonly known as Phil Collins, is an English drummer, singer, songwriter, and actor. He is most known to many of my generation for the Tarzan soundtrack, but he was also a member of the rock band Genesis. He racked up 3 U.K. and 7 U.S. number-one singles in his solo career between 1982-1999. Collins has been out of the public eye for some time, but now he is making headlines again for reasons having to do with his ex-wife, Orianne Cevey. Cevey allegedly had secret wedding in Las Vegas — not to Collins — and Collins is so fed up he's allegedly evicting her as soon as courts open up again post COVID-19.

Whatever happened to Phil Collins?

A sadder story lurks behind why Phil Collins left the spotlight. The rock musician had decades of health issues including crippling nerve damage and alcohol addiction. He had a horrible neck injury where he dislocated the vertebrae in his neck in 2007. The injury caused severe nerve damage in his hands that left him unable to play the drums or piano. He later announced, ''After a successful operation on my neck, my hands still can't function normally. Maybe in a year or so it will change, but for now it is impossible for me to play drums or piano." However, that didn't seem to come to fruition, sadly.

What does Phil Collins look like now?

Phil Collins looks very different now than he did back in the day which could be because of his long-time battle with diabetes. “I have Type 2 Diabetes, and without going into the gory detail I got an abscess on my foot that went septic." A timeline of pictures of the couple from when they began dating all the way to 2018 shows how drastically different the couple looks today.
