Spencer Matthews has revealed that he and his pregnant wife Vogue Williams know the gender of their fourth child - but are keeping it a secret until it is born.

The reality TV stars, who are already parents to sons Theodore and Otto and daughter Gigi, announced they were expecting another baby last month.

Matthews, who was speaking ahead of his latest endurance event, which will see him run all six possible routes up Mount Snowdon in North Wales in a 24-hour period, said the three children "can’t wait for the baby to come".

Asked whether he and Williams know the baby’s gender, Matthews told the Press Association: "We know, but we’re keeping it a surprise."

Describing his three children, he said: "They’re like a little pack of wolves together. You know, they look after each other, they play with each other."

He said Williams is doing "very well", adding: "She is a very strong, awesome woman. She’s carrying it beautifully and looks fantastic."

Williams has previously spoken of experiencing pregnancy loss, including once last year.

Matthews added: "Although we tried very hard to have this fourth kid, it does feel like we’ve been here before a few times.

"Some of the surprises and twists and turns of pregnancy are probably less surprising to us at this stage.

"I think Gigi in particular is going to absolutely adore it. Her favourite toys are all babies."

Matthews’ challenge involves him having to repeatedly ascend and descend the mountain, also known as Yr Wyddfa, over a non-stop 24-hour period.

The 92km route will see him climb the equivalent height of Tanzania’s Mount Kilimanjaro and cover more than two marathons across mountainous terrain.

He said he will have to push through exhaustion and sleep deprivation along with harsh and remote conditions.

He told PA: "There are six possible ways to get up Snowdon. We’re going to try and run all six in a 24-hour period. So it’s going to be quite the day out."

Asked what the appeal was, he said: "My grandmother was Welsh for a start, and I haven’t spent too much time in Wales, but I have been up Snowdon once before and I had an amazing time.

"I’m just drawn to challenges generally, to be honest, but also haven’t done too much with height - with mountain terrain.

"A lot of what I do is flat. So I really wanted to test myself."

He said training to run on mountainous terrain while living in London was "difficult", but he has had experience of running through the night before.

"I have to say, it’s pretty grim," he added.

"Your body’s going to break down. You’re going to get freezing cold. It’s going to be a very difficult thing to manage internal body temperature, especially when you get really depleted and tired."

Matthews has taken on a number of endurance challenges for charity in recent years, including setting a world record by running 30 marathons in 30 days across the Jordanian desert in 2024.

He also completed seven triathlons on seven continents in 21 days in 2025.
