TV star Spencer Matthews <\/a>has revealed how his his wife Vogue Williams<\/a> would have left him if he continued boozing to excess. The 37-year-old, who married Vogue in 2018, admits there was a “divide in the relationship” when he kept drinking throughout his wife’s last pregnancy<\/a>. He says: “I was very aware that if I carried on with my drinking and bad habits, that she would get bored, and she would leave me. And I knew that, and she never made that a thing. She never sat me down and gave me some kind of ultimatum or anything like that. But I could feel it. I could feel that she was a bit disappointed in me.<\/p>\n

“There was one too many times where it was just like – what? And yes, I think the light was shone on my boozing when she fell pregnant with our firstborn, Theodore. He made a big difference, I think, to our relationship, obviously, because I think what felt like joint fun became solo fun quite quickly because, obviously, she stopped drinking completely. And I just didn\u2019t, I carried on, and it created this kind of divide in the relationship, but also made me realise, you know, maybe my drinking habits are not normal.”<\/p>\n

Speaking on the On the Mend with Matt Willis podcast, Spencer says that Vogue picked up on his solo drinking. He admits: “And to begin with, I would say, like, darling, we\u2019re watching a film, like, of course it\u2019s, like, normal to have a few glasses of red wine. Like, we\u2019re at home chilling. And she\u2019s like, \u201cYou\u2019re drinking on your own\u201d. And I\u2019d be like, \u201cYeah, because you\u2019re pregnant?\u201d. And she\u2019d be like, \u201cWell, because I\u2019m not drinking, do you have to, do you have to drink?\u201d. And we\u2019d have the odd chat like that. And you kind of eventually, you just begin to think, why am I drinking on my own? And you begin to question stuff, perhaps for the first time.”<\/p>\n

He also opened up about he used to sink 10 pints of Guinness a day working as a broker. He admitted: “My initiation was to drink ten pints of Guinness every day for the first month that I was there – ten pints of Guinness. I gained like two and a half stone and was just pissed for a month, like, like ten pints. It\u2019s a huge, it\u2019s a huge amount of liquid, right? Of Guinness. And it was, yeah, every single day I basically was made – well, not made, like I really enjoyed it, right? I had like five pints of Guinness at lunch and then five pints of Guinness after work. And yes, you know, I\u2019d fall asleep on the Tube on my way home and wake up in, you know, Heathrow or wherever it was at the end of the Central line.”<\/p>\n
