Vogue Williams has opened up about her marriage to Brian McFadden, saying she knew on the morning of her wedding she was making a mistake.
The presenter, 39, has just released her autobiography Big Mouth - and in it, she goes in to detail about her relationship with the Westlife singer, 45, in a chapter entitled Big Wedding Small Marriage.
“The morning of the wedding I felt very stressed and so anxious because deep down I knew I had made a mistake,” Williams wrote.
“After the wedding I tried to make things work.”
She added: “The relationship wasn’t all terrible, we did have some great times too, and for the most part he was good fun to be around.
“But he was not husband material.
“It was me who called it in the end. I couldn’t keep trying, it felt pointless…
“I’m not here to throw anyone under the bus but there are things that went on in our relationship that will never be forgiven.”
The pair married in Italy in 2015, but the pair split up three years later.
Now, Williams is married to former Made in Chelsea star Spencer Matthews, 36. They share three children Theodore, six, Gigi, four, and Otto, three.
Speaking about the book with the Irish Independent, Williams added that she didn’t want to cover her relationship with McFadden in a “nasty way”.
“I have respect for everybody that I’ve been with,” she said.
“Things don’t always work out. I think had I written this book 10 years ago, I probably would have been different, but I’ve matured now.”
“You can accept that things don’t work out as they are, and I wanted to cover that, but not in a nasty way. And I just felt like I had to be really fair in what I thought went on.
“I didn’t include absolutely everything, because I don’t think that I needed to.”
She also told RTE that she doesn’t regret the relationship, which happened shortly after her dad had passed away.
“I was certainly very young, my dad had just died,” she said.
“I'd come out of a really long-term relationship. I met him and we went to Australia and I used it as an escape to get away from the sadness I was surrounded with.
“But I genuinely don't regret it. Everything you do in life, it brings you to where you are.”
