Spencer Matthews didn’t set out to make his wife cry — but that’s exactly what happened after he spoke candidly about how much Vogue Williams means to him.
In a rare, unguarded moment shared with fans, the former Made In Chelsea star laid bare his admiration for the woman he calls his partner, his anchor, and his motivation to be better.
Pride, Gratitude and a Public Love Letter
Speaking on The Entrepreneur Experiment podcast in a clip later posted to Instagram, Spencer described Vogue as nothing short of remarkable.
He talked about feeling both “proud” and “privileged” to be married to her, praising her work ethic, resilience and devotion as a mother.
According to Spencer, Vogue somehow manages to balance a demanding career while being fully present for their three children — Theodore, Gigi and Otto — a feat he openly admits he struggles to match.
For him, her ability to do both without dropping the ball is what makes her extraordinary.
Vogue’s Emotional Reaction Says It All
It didn’t take long for Vogue to see the clip — or to react.
In the comments, she admitted the words hit home, confessing they brought her to tears.
Her response was short, heartfelt and full of affection, making it clear that the praise meant as much privately as it did publicly.
Fans Rally Behind the Couple
Followers were quick to pile on the love.
Many applauded Spencer for speaking about his wife with such openness and respect, calling the couple an example of how partnerships should look behind closed doors.
Others joked that everyone should “find a man” who talks about them the way Spencer talks about Vogue.
From Reality TV Excess to Real-Life Consequences
Spencer’s reflection carried extra weight given his past.
During his time on Made In Chelsea, heavy drinking was almost part of the job description, fuelling late nights, wild storylines and public missteps.
Away from the cameras, though, that lifestyle was taking a serious toll.
He has previously explained that many of his early careers — from finance to television — rewarded excess.
Being able to drink heavily wasn’t frowned upon; it was expected.
Over time, that normalisation blurred into something far more dangerous.
The Night That Changed Everything
The turning point came quietly, without drama or an intervention.
Alone one evening, Spencer found himself drinking heavily, struggling to make it to bed.
Waking up the next day, he was struck by the realisation that this version of his life wasn’t sustainable — or something he wanted anymore.
That moment of clarity forced him to confront what he stood to lose, including his marriage, his career and even his life.
Why Vogue Made the Difference
Spencer credits Vogue’s own attitude toward alcohol as a crucial factor in his decision to change.
Because she never relied on drinking, her presence made it easier for him to step back and reassess his habits.
He’s openly admitted that without her influence, his journey away from destructive drinking would have been far harder.
A New Relationship With Alcohol
Today, Spencer doesn’t label himself an alcoholic.
Instead, he describes a hard-earned balance.
Where one drink used to lead to ten and an all-night spiral, he now drinks rarely and intentionally — and often not at all.
For him, the biggest shift isn’t just sobriety, but control.
He no longer feels ruled by alcohol, and he believes that balance has given him a healthier, more grounded life.
Looking Ahead With Perspective
Spencer’s emotional tribute wasn’t just about romance — it was about growth, accountability and gratitude.
By acknowledging how close he came to losing everything, he made his praise for Vogue feel earned, not performative.
As for what’s next, the answer seems simple: family, balance and continuing to show up — both for the woman who stood by him and the life they’ve built together.
