"She's a much stronger person than I am and she's really been amazing throughout it and we're one of the lucky couples because for us it's brought us even closer together and we do have three other children as well and that's helped us.
"The youngest one wasn't affected at all by it, but the older two still talk about it a lot. It's a highly complex thing that none of us should ever have to go through."
Despite the pair coming to the other side of the tragedy stronger, Barlow admits there were moments when he feared for their relationship.
"We had a worrying statistic when it happened to us, something like 95 per cent of couples split up when something like that happens to them," he explained.
"There was definitely a point where I wondered if we'd ever be back to where we were before but I think we have got there," he continued.
To navigate the pain of his loss, the singer says he turns towards music. ?
"I've got lots of music that keeps her alive for me on a nightly basis," he explains.
"When I see audiences singing along, that's the life for me.
"That's what she brought and it's here in front of me and it happens a few times a week on stage and that's the way I keep her close to me."
