Vogue Williams has said she is still “living inside” a baby bubble with her newborn son Remy, after her husband Spencer Matthews spoke about feeling lonely and sleeping separately from her following the birth.
The presenter shared photographs of Remy at home, including one of the baby asleep on her chest as she smiled for the camera while relaxing in bed.
She also posted an image of her son wearing a blue knitted outfit and matching hat, alongside a photograph of her older children Theodore, eight, Gigi, six, and Otto, four, playing together.
“Still very much living inside my bubble and loving it…” Williams wrote.
Remy was born earlier this month, joining the couple’s three older children. Matthews later discussed the demands of becoming parents of four during an episode of his friend Jamie Laing’s Newly Parents podcast.
Matthews said the family were living in a rented house while building work was taking place, describing their situation as a “lovely bubble with three other young kids” but adding that it felt “a bit disturbed” because there was so much going on.
“Vogue and I both in our own ways feel a bit lonely at the moment,” he said, explaining that he had been sleeping in the spare room because broken sleep for both parents was “unhelpful to the rest of the family flow”.
He said he missed spending one-to-one time with his wife, with the couple sometimes having only an hour together in the evening before going to bed separately.
“I don’t really like sleeping separately to her. We like being next to each other,” Matthews said. “At the moment it feels a bit fractured. It sort of feels like you’ve fallen out because you’re staying in [another] room.”
He also reflected on how their lives had changed since becoming parents, saying: “Eight years ago we had no kids, now we have four kids.”
Matthews said he takes responsibility for the older children in the mornings, preparing breakfast and doing the school run with help from their nanny, while Williams focuses on feeding Remy and catching up on sleep after night feeds.
Although he admitted that the busy mornings could test his patience, Matthews said Williams had “the hardest job”, adding that he would “really struggle with having the baby on me all of the time”.
