Dad's brutal take on MIC's infamous bridge scene
4 Mar
Summary
- Mike Thompson believes the iconic bridge breakup scene was staged.
- Spencer Matthews regrets the 'toxic' and 'embarrassing' breakup.
- Louise's father claims he had more 'Spanish archer' moments.
Louise Thompson's father, Mike, has offered a surprising perspective on the well-known Made In Chelsea scene where Spencer Matthews ended their relationship on Putney Bridge. During a recent podcast appearance, Mike Thompson viewed the 2013 clip and declared it appeared 'terribly staged' and not 'spur of the moment.' This observation prompted disbelief from Louise's fiancé, Ryan Libbey, who questioned his viewpoint.
Spencer Matthews himself has since acknowledged the scene, admitting he felt 'embarrassed' by his actions and describing their relationship at the time as 'toxic.' He revealed that producers had instructed him and Louise to meet for the scene the day after they had actually broken up privately. Spencer also reflected on his time on Made In Chelsea, expressing shame over his past behavior and a dislike for reality television.
Spencer Matthews departed Made In Chelsea in 2015, the same year he appeared on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here. He is now married to Vogue Williams and they have three children. Louise Thompson is engaged to Ryan Libbey, and they welcomed their son Leo in 2021.
