Adding more glitz to the glamorous occasion are ‘ Tamzin Outhwaite dancing with Nikita Kuzmin and intrepid explorer from Race Across The World, Billy Monger, who’s paired with Nadiya Bychkova.
Vogue gushed about her Strictly stint, saying: “I’m so excited to join the Strictly family! Carlos would have more of a chance of winning a Nobel prize than turning me into a good dancer but I am determined to try my very best! I’m loving it so far, bring on the Ballroom floor.”
However, in an unforeseen setback, Carlos Gu was sidelined by an injury, prompting Gorka Marquez to step in.

In an official statement, a spokesperson announced: “Unfortunately, professional dancer, Carlos Gu, has sustained an ankle injury so is unable to participate in the Christmas Special alongside contestant Vogue Williams. Fellow professional dancer, Gorka Marquez will be stepping in for him and dancing with Vogue. We all wish him a speedy recovery.”
Beyond the glamour of Strictly, Vogue shares her life with Made In Chelsea stalwart Spencer Matthews. She was also previous in a relationship with Brian McFadden, to whom she was wed from 2012 to 2017 before they parted ways
Together, Vogue and Spencer Matthews are parents to three kids – Theodore at six years old, four year old Gigi, and Otto, their two year old. Speaking to Hello! magazine, Vogue shared insights into her home life: “I always try to teach my kids manners, to be polite and to talk to our neighbours. I tell them to make sure they stop and just say ‘Hello’, or ‘How are you? ‘ or ‘How was your day?’

“Seeing them after school, just little things like that. Because I think they make such a difference by just being polite and respectful. It can change someone’s day and it’s great when someone shows you they’re actually interested in what you did today.”
Spencer and Vogue may often be separated due to their individual work commitments but they always make time to each other.
She said: “I usually cook him something [nice] or I do most of the organising of everything in our lives. I think everyone thinks he and I work together all the time. We actually don’t; we’re separate for most of our day. So at night, we come home, we’ll have dinner together, and then we both have our set jobs to make each other’s lives a bit easier.
