Vogue Williams issued deadline after 'disagreement' with Spencer Matthews over family

by · Irish Mirror

Vogue Williams has opened up about the slight difference of opinion with hubby Spencer Matthews regarding expanding their brood. Chatting with Closer UK, the 39-year-old broadcaster confessed she initially set herself a deadline to decide by the end of summer but is still on the fence.

She said: "I had a timer on myself thinking, 'I'll decide at the end of summer', and now it's the end of the summer and I still really just don't know."

Vogue added that while Spencer is keen on a fourth child straight away, she's worried about the practical side of things, stating: "Spencer would, straight away, but I think of the logistics, whereas he doesn't. I don't want to have a child when I'm 40, because I feel like I'm going to start getting tired. That's when I want to go into my granny era."

Also weighing in on her lifestyle choices, Vogue revealed how Dr Chris van Tulleken's book on ultra-processed foods has made an impact, even though she still indulges occasionally: "I definitely eat ultra-processed food because I love sweets – but if you can try to avoid it as much as possible, it's the easiest way to stay healthy."

Earlier this season, Dr Chris joined Spencer on his pod to delve into UPFs, their effect on health, and their ubiquity—even in something as innocuous as a chicken wrap—something Spencer found quite eye-opening.

Dr Chris openly shared his lack of surprise, pointing out that a simple store-purchased chicken wrap might pack "35 to 45 ingredients."

Speaking on his own efforts to dodge ultra-processed foods (UPFs), Dr Chris revealed he's attempted to scrap as many as possible from his diet.

He drew parallels between his dietary adjustments and those who follow strict dietary guidelines for ethical or religious reasons, saying: "While I continued to eat moderate processed food. I now think I eat none. My mum made a potato salad the other day and I don't know if she used store-bought mayonnaise. I don't police it that thoroughly."

Furthermore, he commented on the practical challenges: "But my experience is you eat none, as a vegan would eat no meat, or as someone of Jewish or Muslim faith would eat no pork if they observe that rule."

He highlighted the obstacles faced when on the go: "The opportunities for actually eating are quite small, if you're at a service station, good luck to you. There's just a load of my day where I just don't eat."
