Vogue Williams made an awkward admission about her marriage to Brian McFadden. The Irish podcaster and television star began dating the Westlife singer in 2011.
The couple tied the knot on September 2, 2012, in Florence, Italy. However just three years later the pair announced they were going their separate ways.
Vogue has since married former Made in Chelsea star Spencer Matthews, with the pair going on to share three children together. The 40-year-old recently took part in I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!.
On the Shagged, Married, Annoyed podcast, Vogue admits she “made a mistake” by not asking former contestants how difficult the show would be. She says campmates would regularly find themselves singing or making up games to pass the time.
She said: “You are filmed the whole day and I love being around people, I don’t spend time on my own, I can’t bear it, so it was fine, but they were very singy.”

Podcast host Chris Ramsay went on to express his dismay at people bringing guitars to parties. He said: “When I’m at a gathering and some f*****g t**t gets an acoustic guitar out, I want to wrap it around their head.”
It prompted Vogue to reply: “Honestly, that is the worst. I can’t.
“I used to be married to a singer and I’d be like….I’m just not a singy person because I’m s***e at it. I’m a really bad singer, I’m not a good dancer, and there was a lot of singing and dancing so I found that hard.”
Vogue has previously revealed she felt “humiliated” when she split from 45-year-old Brian. Although she admits she “knew it was coming” for almost a year before the couple decided to part ways.

Speaking to Closer magazine, she said: “I wanted to be married with kids by the time I was 30. Fair play to anyone who managed to do that, but then when it didn’t happen for me, I was like I’m divorced at 31, this is way off plan.
“Not only was I really humiliated by that whole situation, and upset, I knew when it was coming for like a year, so it was more embarrassment by the time it happened.”
Vogue and Brian’s divorce was finalised in 2017. Shortly after she met Spencer while preparing to film The Jump on Channel 4.
Initially she “didn’t fancy” Spencer, admitting she would have swiped past him on an app. While discussing the topic of dating apps on her Vogue and Amber podcast, she said: “You’re just judging someone completely on the way they look.
“And I always say this, Spencer is obviously gorgeous, but he wouldn’t have been my type when we met. And I would have swiped past him on a dating app.
“And then we met, and we were mad about each other because we just loved each other’s personalities. So, I think trying to meet somebody in real life, although it can be hard, can be a really amazing thing.”
Vogue and Spencer’s relationship quickly blossomed after they met and in June 2018 they tied the knot at Spencer’s 10,000 acre family estate in Scotland.
