Vogue Williams and husband Spencer Matthews confess what Irish traditions they disagree with

Vogue Williams and husband Spencer Matthews have confessed what traditions in Ireland they don't agree with and it's something “Irish people aren't ready to hear”.

The power couple took to their podcast to discuss what traditions they think are annoying in a controversial episode. Made In Chelsea star, Spencer, 34, wasn’t long to kick it off by saying that Irish people “don't have to thank the bus driver” when getting off the bus.

Dublin native, 36, Vogue actually agreed and said: “They're doing you a favour, they're giving you a lift”.

Spencer then criticised the long standing tradition of the Irish goodbye, he said: “Leaving a party without saying goodbye is rude. Vogue disagreed, saying: "It's absolutely not rude. Saying goodbye is actually incredibly self-indulgent. Nobody cares if you're leaving a party. Just leave.”

She added: “Irish goodbye. You'll never feel better than when you just ditch people and then the next day you wake up and you're grand and they're like, ‘Ugh we got in at 3am’. It's the best thing.”

Spencer bluntly admitted that “Irish butter is not the only butter out there”, but headstrong Vogue disagreed and said that it's the best butter in the world.

She refused to criticise one of our nation's beloved products and confessed: “Okay, this is where I have to strongly disagree with that point. I'm not saying there are no other butters out there, of course, there are, but if you ever see Irish butter, it's more yellow than any other butter because the cows eat the green grass in Ireland and it's more delicious.

“Spenny, that is one of them that I'm not giving away. Irish butter is the best butter of all the butters. Let's agree to disagree. You can bring your own butter to Ireland, because you're not eating our butter anymore.”

Spencer replied: "Fine, I don't want your butter."
