Jamie Laing has opened up about his tense relationship with former Spencer Matthews co-star Spencer Matthews. The former pals have reportedly been feuding in recent years, with many speculated reasons flying about.
The once best pals have had tension since Jamie married Sophie Habboo. Spencer was surprisingly not invited to the duo's first wedding in the UK in 2023. Then, at the Spanish ceremony, Spencer reportedly acted in a bd manner. It's claimed that Spencer was also unimpressed with Jamie's charity run, with extreme athletic stunts said to have been Spencer's "thing."
Despite that, Jamie raised millions for Comic Relief thanks to his efforts. Now, after being asked about their friendship, Jamie made a candid five-word confession.
Speaking to You Magazine, Jamie called his fellow TV star "hard to get along with" as he candidly opened up on their friendship. "Look, what can I say? I love Spencer, I really love him so much, and I don’t think he’d mind me saying this… um… look, Spencer’s a hard person to be friends with," he said.
"We were thick as thieves for a long time, but I think what happens is family and life. From my side, I have no jealousy towards him whatsoever. I only love and adore him more than anything in the entire world. I still consider him one of my closest friends, and I’m godfather to his daughter. But, yeah… I mean… You would have to ask him."
Jamie reiterated his adoration for his once best pal before again adding it would have to be Spencer who answered why they are no longer as close as they once were.

The reality TV star also recently opened up on how he and his wifebroke Buckingham Palace ruleswith a cheeky Meghan Markle-inspired twerk. The moment left King Charles laughing with an awkward etiquette blunder.
Shortly before attending the annual King's Trust Awards in June, the duo admitted that an initial faux-pas from Sophie, 30, prompted a subsequent photo in which the monarch appears to laugh at the couple.
In the image, which sparked a social media storm, the pair appeared to poke fun at Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's notorious pregnancy twerk video during their trip to the Palace.
The moment raised eyebrows after they cheekily filmed themselves on the Grand Staircase at the Palace, which has been traversed by Kings and Queens, Princes and Princesses.
While the moment of Sophie and Jamie filming was a breach in protocol, palace aides fortunately found the funny side. On its official Instagram account 'theroyalfamily' replied to Jamie's post, adding: 'We see you' accompanied by a pair of eyes and a wink emojis.
The King's Trust entered the conversation in the spirit of the occasion with the quip: 'All of our attendees are very well behaved.'
