In a recent update shared on Instagram on a bustling Tuesday, Spencer Matthews was observed traversing the expansive hallway of their period London residence. Vogue Williams meticulously documented the stripped-down interior, highlighting the vast scope of the project. She enthusiastically commented, "We're visiting the new house. Looking good, it's looking good. Wow there is a lot of work going on." The footage revealed a hive of activity in the sprawling garden, where construction crews, utilizing a digger, were engaged in excavating for what appeared to be a significant basement extension.
When Williams first offered a tour of the property in December of the previous year, prior to the commencement of construction, the house showcased numerous original architectural elements, including elegant fireplaces, intricate cornicing, and classic ceiling roses. At that time, she also indicated their plans to clear a substantial portion of the garden's existing shrubbery, aiming to create a spacious lawn area, ideal for their children's recreational activities.
Navigating the demanding phases of this extensive renovation, coupled with raising their four young children – Theodore, eight, Gigi, six, Otto, four, and the newborn Remy Valentine – has presented unique challenges for the couple. However, Williams recently expressed pride in their ability to manage these multifaceted responsibilities while maintaining a strong relationship. Speaking on her podcast, 'My Therapist Ghosted Me,' she reflected, "I was actually I was thinking about myself and Spencer yesterday and like it's rare to give yourself a compliment. But I was like, 'Spenny, do you know what? I am proud of us. We have navigated having four kids, doing two moves, doing a renovation, and we still f***ing really like each other.'" She added, "Isn't that amazing? We should We should hate each other but we love each other."
Williams also referenced Matthews' prior remarks on Katherine Ryan's podcast, where he candidly stated his belief that his affection for Williams was more overt. Matthews had said, "I think I love her more than she loves me. I think I'm more obvious with my love and affection for her." He admitted that Williams occasionally delivers compliments that deeply resonate with him. Williams, recounting her response to Matthews' public comments, playfully remarked, "I sent it to him and I was like, 'F*** sake, Spencer. Cue all the comments like 'Oh, she only loves you for your money', I'm like 'For f*** sake, Spencer.'" She quipped, "I mean it is true, but you don't have to tell everybody! It's important, somebody always loves somebody else more, and it's only a little bit. I really love him, but like he really loves me." Williams further elaborated, "Someone will always love someone just a little bit more and it doesn't mean that you're not in love with them. I've loved Spenny more than I've ever loved anyone else."
Matthews shared a memorable instance shortly after Remy's birth when Williams offered him heartfelt praise. He described procuring her favorite champagne to celebrate, and noted her kind words regarding his parenting. Matthews acknowledged that while he often expresses his admiration for her, similar affirmations are not always immediately reciprocated. He concluded that, despite occasional imperfections, their relationship is strong, stating, "There's not much about our relationship that I'd change." He added, "But I think we do have a great relationship. I think I'm certainly very lucky to have her as my partner. No one's disputing that."
In addition to their London property, the couple also possesses a family home in Howth, Dublin, acquired in late 2023. However, their ongoing professional obligations necessitate their continued presence in London.
