hey’ve already got their hands full with one-year-old son Theodore, but infatuated parents Spencer Matthews and Vogue Williams – who have their own E4 reality show – have both hinted that adding to their family is high on the agenda for 2020. “Theodore is the best thing that’s happened to us – and me,” Spencer tells Closer. “I couldn’t love him more, so having more children would be wonderful. It [more children] is certainly something we are considering. I don’t want to advertise that we’re trying, but we are keen for more kids. Unfortunately, we can’t pick and choose when that happens, but we are keen for our family to grow. I would love a family full of children.” And wife Vogue, 34, who has been vocal on their TV show about wanting more kids, agrees with Spencer, saying, “I don’t know when, but it will happen – definitely.”

SECOND WEDDING
Spencer, 31, and Vogue first tied the knot in June 2018 in front of a handful of immediate family members in Scotland. But the couple did it all over again in London this year, organising a wedding party for friends, which they filmed for the second series of their reality show, Spencer, Vogue And Wedding Two. The former Made In Chelsea star has admitted their first wedding “wasn’t great”, with Vogue agreeing he “missed a lot” because he was drunk. She also said she didn’t have “much fun” because she was pregnant. 44

Spencer is a reformed character since meeting Vogue in 2017 on C4 ski show The Jump, where their friendship turned to romance. He was known as a lothario and the bad boy of Chelsea, but gave up alcohol in 2018 during Vogue’s pregnancy, putting the wild parties on hold to focus on family time and his new business venture, Clean Liquor. Spencer and Vogue even had a date night to celebrate his “soberversary”, while pals Millie Mackintosh and Hugo Taylor, who recently announced they were expecting, babysat for Theodore. “Drinking full-strength alcohol, for me, I have no interest in at all,” Spencer reveals. “It’s just not a part of my life any more – it didn’t suit me, and my life is so much better for it that it’s not even comparable. “I am a different person. I wouldn’t even The pair met on The Jump in 2017

be friends with myself a year and a half ago. My New Year’s resolution was to work hard, keep my head down, and focus on the business, and all will be well.” FAMILY TIME
After a busy year as a working mum, Vogue – who was previously married to Westlife star Brian McFadden – is ready for a relaxing break with Spencer and Theodore in the sunshine. She says, “We’re going to St Barths [in the Caribbean] with Spenny’s side, and I can’t wait. It breaks up the winter nicely. We’re going to be chilled out with the family.” Spencer is also excited to spend time with the Matthews family, which includes elder brother James, his wife Pippa Middleton, and their one-year-old son Arthur. He says, “I’m really looking forward to it because it [St Barths] is like home to me.” And with more TV shows in the pipeline, the couple are making the most of their downtime before a busy 2020. Vogue says, “I have a new show coming out with the BBC. It’s very exciting, it’s all go, go, go.” By Maisie Bovingdon ● The Clean Liquor Co’s low alcohol gin is available now at Cleanliquor.com
