Reality television star Spencer Matthews has publicly expressed his disappointment after being noticeably absent from Jamie Laing's recent ultra-marathon fundraising challenge. The former Made in Chelsea co-star revealed he was not invited to participate in the gruelling event, which featured a host of other celebrities.
Matthews, known for his own extreme physical challenges and fitness prowess, confessed his surprise at the omission. He suggested that there may have been a deliberate decision to exclude him from the line-up, despite his close association with Laing during their time on the hit E4 show.
A Challenge Fraught with Tension
The ultra-marathon, organised by Laing's candy brand, Candy Kittens, was designed to push participants to their limits while raising money for charity. The event saw a number of famous faces, including other reality TV personalities, come together to support the cause.
"It's a shame," Matthews was quoted as saying. "I consider myself more than capable of taking on such a challenge and would have been a strong contender. I'm not sure why the invitation didn't come my way."
History on the King's Road
The two men share a long history, having been central figures in the early series of Made in Chelsea, which documented the lives of wealthy young socialites in West London. Their friendship, along with those of the entire group, has been played out in the public eye for over a decade.
This recent incident has led to speculation among fans about the current state of their relationship. While no explicit falling out has been confirmed, the lack of an invitation speaks volumes to many observers of the London social scene.
Whether this is a simple oversight or a sign of a deeper rift remains to be seen. For now, Spencer Matthews is left on the sidelines, watching a major charitable challenge unfold without him.
