Vogue Williams Shares Awkward Hiking Encounter During Howth Visit

Podcaster and business owner Vogue Williams recently shared an awkward moment from a hike in Howth with her sister, revealing that she greeted three people on the trail who did not return her hello. The candid anecdote came during a recent interview where Williams discussed her connection to the area, her Irish upbringing and her ongoing ties to Howth despite living in London with her husband Spencer Matthews and their children.

Williams, who hosts the podcast My Therapist Ghosted Me and founded Bare By Vogue, frequently returns to Howth, where she spent her childhood. She owns a home in the area that her family uses during visits to Ireland. According to Williams, she makes it a point to walk the iconic Howth Cliff Walk whenever she is in the country, describing it as a “gorgeous spot” especially when the sun is shining.

The Howth Cliff Walk, a popular 6km loop trail offering panoramic views of Dublin Bay, has featured regularly in Williams’ social media updates. Past visits have included walks with her husband Spencer Matthews and friend Megan, during which they have taken selfies at the cliff tops and shared videos of her DJ sets at Howth Yacht Club, where her family has “crashed the stage” during performances.

While Williams did not specify the exact date of the recent hike with her sister, her pattern of returning to Howth several times a year aligns with her ongoing connection to the locality. She continues to visit despite her primary residence being in the UK, where she lives with Matthews and their three children—Theo, Gigi, and Otto—and another child on the way.

The story reflects Williams’ broader public persona as someone who blends celebrity life with relatable, everyday moments. Her openness about personal experiences—from pregnancy loss to parenting—has resonated with audiences through her podcast and media appearances.

As of her most recent visit documented in May 2024, Williams was seen enjoying the scenic walk with Spencer and Megan, wearing a hoodie from her podcast merchandise line and joking about the chilly weather. She continues to highlight Howth not only as a place of natural beauty but as well as a meaningful part of her personal history.
