Vogue Williams wears a cut-out bikini as she packs on the PDA and frolics in the sea with shirtless husband Spencer Matthews on holiday in Spain
The couple, who have been enjoying a beach holiday with their children, frolicked in the sea during their trip.
Vogue looked incredible in a black bikini with cut-out sections while Spencer went shirtless in a pair of colourful swimming shorts.
The holiday comes after Vogue revealed in May that she often feels 'mum guilt' when she is away from her children working.
The Irish star shares her children, Theodore, six, Gigi, four, and Otto, three with Spencer.
Speaking on The Life of Bryony podcast, she said that like many mums, she has put pressure on herself to 'do and be everything'.
'I suffer from mum guilt all the time', Vogue admitted.
'I feel guilty when I am working, and I feel guilty when I am with my kids. I worry when I spend more time with one of them and not the others.
'I spend a lot of time with Theodore and Gigi because I take them places – so I have to create time to spend with Otto on his own.
'I think as women we put so much pressure on ourselves to be able to do and be everything. Going out there and working should be great for your children to see.
'Whether you're a working mum or staying at home, I think you're always going to feel some level of guilt. When realistically, you can't do it all.'
Speculating about why Vogue was putting so much pressure on herself as a parent, host Bryony Gordon, 45, admitted that her attitude may reflect the beliefs of a generation.
She said: 'Women of our generation were brought up with that notion – that you can have it all.
'Even the question itself – you see these high-profile women always get asked that question. No one is asking that question of men.
'I don't want to have it all – I don't need to be everything to everyone.'
'Everyone just has to accept that sometimes, laundry is a nightmare, and we might forget to reply to an email or several.'
Vogue jokingly responded: 'I have 364 unread WhatsApps – It's terrible!'
Both Vogue and Spencer are known for their dedication to health and fitness, especially Spencer, who turned his life around after struggling with alcohol abuse during his time on Made in Chelsea.
The star also battled an addiction to steroids, the use resulted in his removal from ITV show I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! in 2015.
Spencer is now the founder and Chief Business Officer of CleanCo Non-alcoholic Spirits, which he founded soon after eldest son Theo's birth.
His eldest brother is married to Pippa Middleton, and his parents are the Laird and Lady of Glen Affric, a 10,000-acre estate in the Highlands of Scotland.
Appearing on an installment of the Mail's 'The Life of Bryony' podcast, Vogue recently admitted she 'thought her life was over' after divorcing Westlife singer Brian McFadden.
In a candid conversation with Mail columnist Bryony Gordon, 'relationship girl' Vogue reflected on her love life ahead of turning forty.
She remembered feeling as though she had 'ruined her life' in 2017 after her divorce aged 31 from Westlife singer Brian McFadden.
'I am excited at turning forty', Vogue told the podcast. 'When you are 19 or 20, you think that 40-year-olds are really old and battered. Then you actually get there and you think, this is a really nice moment.
'In your thirties, you are still trying to figure stuff out. I remember being divorced at 31 and thinking, I've ruined my life. I am never going to have kids, I am never going to do what I always wanted to do.
'Then you see how your life actually starts to unfold – that's why it feels exciting to move into your forties.'

Mystery as Tasha Ghouri completely ignores her Celeb SAS stint after quitting show
TASHA Ghouri sparked a mystery by completely ignoring her Celebrity SAS stint - after quitting the show. Former Love Island star Tasha, 26, signed up for the gruelling Channel 4 show's latest series. 3 3 She was among multiple famous faces who bowed out in the early stages. While the series launched on August 3, Tasha has yet to acknowledge her involvement. She followed Louie Spence, Hannah Spearitt and Chloe Burrows in leaving the course. It came as the Directing Staff (DS) honed in on her as the group climbed up a hill. They told her to "dig deep" as the reality TV favourite lagged behind. But an exhausted and struggling Tasha soon held up her arm band. She told the shocked DS: "I'm not mentally here. I'm not mentally here to do this." After heading down the hill, the reality star reunited with Chloe and they discussed their sudden exits from the course. Tasha said: "You have to be so mentally strong to do this." Chloe replied: "And physically." Celeb SAS Who Dares Wins full line up revealed with ex Premier League footballer, pop icon and THREE Love Islanders Last year, Tasha took part in Strictly Come Dancing - and had a much longer stint. Partnered with Aljaž Škorjanec, they reached the final, but fell short to Chris McCausland and Dianne Buswell. Meanwhile, Louis, 56, revealed the real reason he withdrew from the challenging course. He shared: 'I felt like a granddad in a school. "On SAS I couldn't high kick my way out of trouble.' 'If they asked me to go in the I'm A Celeb jungle, that would be better, darling – that's a bit like Big Brother. "You sit around and do nothing but eat kangaroo balls. "It's more entertainment than anything else.'

Picasso or Goya: who created Spain's most important painting?
The Regency artist Sir Thomas Lawrence deemed Velázquez's Las Meninas to represent 'the true philosophy of the art' of painting. A spirited public debate about who created the most important Spanish painting, however, has pitted Goya against Picasso, contrasting two visions of the country. The debate started when Arturo Pérez-Reverte, the combative bestselling novelist, challenged the assertion made by Miguel Ángel Cajigal, an art critic, that Picasso's Guernica was Spain's most significant work. Cajigal, who made the declaration during a radio broadcast, supports the broadly-held consensus that Picasso's 1937 work, which depicts the bombing of the Basque town of Guernica during the Spanish civil war, is the most internationally acclaimed owing to its status as the world's most powerful anti-war painting. But Perez-Reverte, a former war correspondent and creator of the swashbuckling Captain Alatriste series of novels, strongly disagreed, stating on social media that the claim 'had left me in shock'. He then posted an image of Goya's Duel with Cudgels, an 1820s work in which two men, up to their knees in mud, club each other. 'Picasso painted Guernica, but Goya painted our soul,' he wrote, prompting a long riposte from Cajigal and thousands of comments from the public, as well as media headlines about the ensuing public debate about national art. The novelist's characterisation of Duel with Cudgels echoes the description of it as 'symbolically embodying the irrationality of fratricidal violence' by Madrid's Prado Museum, where it is housed. The work has been judged as presaging the civil war of 1936 to 1939 and in recent years it has been used as an allegory for Spain's deeply polarised politics, which appears increasingly coarse and senseless. The museum interprets it as an allegory of Spain's internal conflict during the restoration under Ferdinand VII, a vivid portrayal of internal divisions. The mural paintings were among those that decorated the house known as Quinta del Sordo, where Goya lived and have come to be known as the Black Paintings, in part because of their sombre subject matter. X-rays have shown that the two fighters were not originally sunk into the ground up to their knees but stood on a grassy meadow. 'It's Spanish to the hilt,' stated Pérez-Reverte. Some Spaniards agreed with him and many argued for works by Velázquez, Sorolla and El Greco. But others backed Cajigal, with one commenting: 'It's amazing for its technique, the symbolism of the figures and colour as well as for what it represents as a story. No one is going to deny that.' The art critic pointed out that the image of Guernica adorns the UN headquarters in New York and its pre-eminent importance is underscored by numerous prestigious scholars. 'I have been teaching Spanish art classes to students from the United States for almost 20 years,' he said. 'The only painting they always know is Guernica. And then, Goya and El Greco.' Picasso's masterpiece, inspired by the devastating 1937 air raid by Nazi Germany's Condor Legion on Guernica at the behest of General Franco, was first shown at the world fair in Paris the same year. Picasso had been commissioned by the Republican government to produce a work to boost awareness of the war and raise funds. • Guernica to be declared first 'place of memory' under Spanish Civil War legislation When the Second World War broke out he decided that the painting should remain in New York for safekeeping. In 1958 he extended the loan for an indefinite period, until such time as democracy had been restored in Spain. It arrived home in 1981. The debate about which painting best defines Spain has divided broadly into those that view Guernica as the painting of a modern democratic Spain that once lived under dictatorship, and those that deem Goya's work to be no less tragic, a self‑portrait of country mired in its own history. A social media user commented: 'Guernica speaks to the world; but Goya shows what Spain inflicts on itself.'
