Vogue Williams shares update on baby plans with Spencer in 'chaotic' admission
Vogue Williams has shared an honest four-word update on her potential future baby plans with Spencer Matthews as she spoke candidly about the "chaos" at home. In a recent interview, the Portmarnock-born podcaster opened up about her home life with former Made in Chelsea star Spencer and their three young children, Theodore, Gigi, and Otto. In an admission that will strike a chord with many parents, Vogue detailed how she and Spencer have "brilliant" and "funny" children, but also conceded they're "really hard work sometimes". When it comes to adding a fourth to their family, however, it seems that the 39-year-old is unsure.

In fact, she even summed up her outlook with a four-word comment. Vogue told Heat magazine: "Maybe, I don't know. If we had one more, it would be great; if we had no more, it would also be great. Our kids are so brilliant; they're so funny."

We love the noise and them running around having fun." Vogue, who was previously married to Westlife star Brian McFadden, encountered Spencer on The Jump in 2017, and the pair tied the knot in 2018. It follows reports that Vogue had previously changed her baby plans. The Irish star revealed that she'd decided before Christmas that she was happy with keeping things as they were with three children. Indeed, she seemed to confirm this by planning to donate all the old baby clothes that she has stored away. Speaking to Netmums podcast hosts Wendy Golledge and Alison Perry, Vogue said she was "100 percent decided". At the time, Vogue admitted that she "couldn't have been more sure" and had been preparing to "get rid of everything". She added that she was even set on giving "everything away".

Despite this, one specific thing seemed to change her mind. She said: "I can't fully make that decision, but I'm not a good pregnant person, I feel so so sick. The thought of that is really difficult, because I literally had to sleep sitting up because I would just feel so ill the whole time." Weighing in on the topic with OK! Magazine last year, Spencer detailed how there were "no immediate plans", but it was something that "feels like the best idea ever" on some days and not on others. He also mentioned "juggling" three school drop-offs and pondering if there's "room for another", adding that they "couldn't be more fortunate" with their family and feel "completely delighted".

Charles Spencer's estranged wife and new girlfriend embroiled in bitter $2.6M legal clash
Charles Spencer, the younger brother of the late Princess Diana, is stuck in the middle of a bitter legal spat between his estranged wife and his much-younger new girlfriend. Countess Karen Spencer, 52, who was married to Earl Spencer, 60, from 2011 to 2024, was slapped with a $2.6 million lawsuit by his new flame, Professor Catrine Jarman. The High Court suit, filed against Lady Spencer in October 2024, alleged that she had 'misused' private medical information. 4 Charles Spencer, the younger brother of the late Princess Diana, is stuck in the middle of a bitter legal spat between his estranged wife and his much-younger new BVLGARI and EJAF Jarman, 42, claims that she was forced to reveal her multiple sclerosis diagnosis in a high-profile interview in a desperate bid to silence online gossip — adding that she had 'worked very hard' to keep her health battle under wraps up until that point, GB News reports. The aristocrat's new flame, whom he met in 2021, further claimed she had kept her MS diagnosis hidden from those nearest and dearest to her, including the Earl himself. In her filing, Jarman said she decided to reveal her health condition in an interview with the Daily Mail after becoming concerned about 'loss of autonomy and control' over her own medical history. 4 Countess Karen Spencer, 52, was married to Earl Spencer, 60, from 2011 to 2024. WireImage Lady Spencer, for her part, countered the claim, saying that her estranged husband's new girlfriend's decision to go public with her medical information was 'hopelessly inconsistent' with her legal case. 'Deliberately disclosing the fact that she has MS to the world in a manner calculated to give it maximum publicity is not only entirely inconsistent with any claim to privacy, but it also nullifies the ostensible purpose of these proceedings,' her legal team said in response. On Monday, the women reached an agreement on future estimated legal costs, which are upward of $2.6 million. 4 The Earl (left) and Jarman (middle) have an 18-year age gap between them. The Post has reached out to reps for Earl Spencer for comment. The 9th Earl Spencer announced he was divorcing Karen, his third wife, in June 2024. Follow along with The Post's live blog on everything you need to know about the British royal family. Charles met the Canadian social entrepreneur and philanthropist on a blind date in Los Angeles in 2010. They tied the knot the following year at Althorp, the Spencer family's ancestral home and the final resting place of Princess Diana, who died in 1997. 4 In High Court suit, filed in October 2024, Jarman alleged that Lady Spencer had 'misused' private medical information.

He shares four kids with his first wife, Victoria Lockwood, and two with his second wife, Caroline Freud. In November 2024, Spencer opened up about his relationship with Jarman, saying he 'wasn't even thinking romance' when the pair had met.

Give your kids an immersive dino experience as Jurassic Earth comes to Scotland
The show stars a giant T-Rex, triceratops, brontosaurus, and other lifelike dinosaurs like spinosaurs, velociraptors, and baby dinos As Glasgow continues to embrace dinosaur fever this summer, a prehistoric spectacle is gearing up to storm into Braehead Arena for the September weekend, promising a jaw-dropping experience for families. The hit show Jurassic Earth is set to take over the arena on Friday, September 27, bringing lifelike animatronic dinosaurs to the stage for a thrilling 75-minute interactive adventure, Glasgow Live reports. Two performances will take place on the day, at 12 noon and 3pm, with tickets now available through the Braehead Arena website. Featuring an extraordinary cast of creatures, the show includes a 22-foot-long, 14-foot-tall walking Tyrannosaurus Rex, reportedly the largest in the world, alongside an 18-foot triceratops, a towering 26-foot brontosaurus, and a range of other species. Dinosaur fans can also expect to meet characters like Spencer and Stevo the spinosaurs, Rocky and Richie the velociraptors, Dash the carnotaurus, Tank the triceratops and a host of baby dinosaurs. The show promises up-close encounters, audience participation, songs, dances and even dinosaur ranger training for the younger crowd. Russ Smith, CEO of Braehead Arena, said the upcoming event is a perfect fit for the venue's future vision. 'We have big plans here at Braehead Arena so what better way to kick them off than with the biggest show of all – literally,' he said. 'These dinosaurs are incredible, I saw the show with my kids and they loved it so it was something I definitely wanted to bring to the arena. 'Apparently space is sometimes an issue for the larger dinos so this is the perfect venue – we certainly don't have any concerns on that front so let's go BIG. 'We want to be everything to everyone here at Braehead Arena, so this amazing modern marvel of a show is perfect for us… you'll have a roaring good time.' At the centre of the action is Ranger Danger, the audience's guide through the experience. Children will take part in a special training session to prepare them in case of an unexpected dinosaur escape, all part of the immersive fun. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Piers Morgan's ex wife 'fighting for her life' following freak accident
Piers Morgan's son Spencer shared an update from hospital Piers Morgan 's wife was left fighting for her life following a freak accident. The former couple's son Spencer posted photos from hospital of himself alongside his mum. Sharing with his followers what happened to his mum, Spencer explained how she had a freak accident several months ago, writes The Mirror. He wrote on Instagram: "Seven months ago our mum was involved in a freak accident which left her fighting for her life… We were told on more than one occasion that there was little hope if any but against all odds she hung on in there and thanks to the two heroic surgeons in the third pic and countless others at @chelwestft she left hospital today after 218 days on the ward.' He went on: "The staff labelled her a minor miracle but they are the miracle workers. My family are eternally grateful for their incredible work. Never give up." However, he didn't explain exactly what happened. In the photos, Marion could be seen in a green dress as she stood in between two of her children, Spencer and Bertie, in a hospital ward. In another she stood between doctors. Spencer also shared the moment that she left hospital to nurses clapping her as she walked through the ward doors. And another snap showed Marion walking out of hospital main doors while using a crutch and having her son at her side. Many of Spencer's followers and friends flocked to the comments to send Marion well wishes. Among those sending their best wishes was Denise Welch, who simply sent five red love heart emojis. Piers' former Good Morning Britain co-presenter Susanna Reid also commented: "The best news," along with a love heart emoji. And George Lineker, son of former Match of the Day host Gary Lineker, penned: "Buzzing for you all." Marion and Piers were married between 1991 and 2008. They share sons Albert, Stanley, and Spencer together. After they split, Piers went on to marry Celia Walden and they welcomed daughter Elise in 2011. Despite their split, Piers remained fiercely protective of his ex wife. Speaking to the Daily Mail in 2009, he explained their divorce had been a "pretty horrendous experience". "The day Marion and I got divorced, I said, 'You know what? We can both go away feeling awful about this, but let's never mention it again'," he said. He also admitted his ex had supported his Good Morning Britain exit. And he added of their good terms: "I don't regret it because these things happen, but I'm pleased that we've stayed good friends, because it's important for your kids. "I produced three fantastic children with my ex-wife. The best advice I ever got was to speak to them every day - that's when you need your ex to be very accommodating. "I've spoken to my kids, with just a handful of exceptions, every day in the last nine years." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!
