In a new podcast, Spencer Matthews bravely discussed overcoming alcohol issues and shared his thoughts on dating I’m A Celeb wife Vogue Williams.
Spencer Matthews has admitted he feared losing his I’m A Celebrity wife Vogue Williams – and explained why they rarely kiss and cuddle in public.
In a wide-ranging interview, TV star and athlete Spencer, 37, spoke about his battle with alcohol with Fearne Cotton this week and his changing life.
Additionally, he frequently received requests to speak with his wife Vogue, who is reportedly entering camp late into the jungle.
Spencer said at his worst, he continued drinking despite his fears that it might compromise their relationship, when he was struggling at the time.
He once said, “I love life as an experience. And I find it fascinating when you experience regret and hostility toward your actions. And I remember one night when I drank a bottle of whiskey to see if friends wanted to come over.
Vogue was away filming something, working, performing really well, and everyone adores and loves me. And I just started to lose like a ***. like I was losing my mind.
“Like, and I was aware that I was going to also lose her. If I let go of her, I let go of her. But I persevered a little.”
Thankfully a kind friend came over and put Spencer to bed before he drank anymore, and these days he has his drinking under control. He trains hard to run marathons and raises money for charity running and competing around the world.
He stated on the podcast Happy Place that “I have a different relationship with it now.” And speaking of shame, which was really interesting, I know that tonight I’ll probably have two or three margaritas and then I’ll stop because I’m aware of what happens if I don’t.
I need to look after my children. I need to start some businesses. No joke is having a hangover with kids.
There was a point in my life where I really felt like I might not be able to do that, and total abstinence may be the only way to go about doing that, which is great.
Spencer stated that he is now able to control his drinking and will continue to do so at times.
He then went on to explain how his wife and Vogue were in some ways antagonistic. She will never sit down and have her own time to read a book if she has a day off. She will also never reorganize the children’s clothing. Then he turned to discuss affection.
He said, “The boys are less affectionate, which is good. They resemble Vogue a little more. Vogue is not a fan of handholdy, kissing, or cuddling, you know.
We are affectionate, but she claims that 20 seconds is probably appropriate for her in the morning while I could hold her for a good few minutes. especially if we haven’t properly cleaned our teeth.
There is a difference between the two, but I love all of my kids equally. My daughter and I share this kinship. It’s fairly common, in my opinion.
In recent months, the relationship has come under scrutiny, particularly since Spencer and the pair stopped producing podcasts together. Vogue insisted that she would truly miss her husband and their children as she entered camp.
Theodore, age six, Gigi, age four, and Otto, age three, are the children of the couple, and it is their departure that preys on her mind more than any other Bushtucker Trial.
She said, “I’m only concerned about missing my family and the kids, and I’m also worried about missing Spencer.”
“I have done all my Christmas shopping. I have done our food shops for the next four weeks. I have organised everything down to a tee because I kind of do all that stuff at home, so I have got everything organised so I do not have to worry when I get back.”
