Vogue on marriage split heartache: ‘Everything I wanted is gone’

Jan 8, 2016

It's been seven months since Vogue Williams and Brian McFadden announced their split, and though things might seem to be going well for the model, she's admitted it's been an uphill struggle.

Speaking in the new issue of VIP magazine, the 29-year-old admitted that the end of her marriage also meant the end – at least temporarily – of many of her aspirations for the future.

"My head's all over the place. I feel like I don't have a goal," she admitted. "Everything that I wanted is sort of gone."

Like any woman in the midst of a break-up, Vogue says she's had to get used to life as a single woman again.

"I wanted to be married and I wanted to have kids for so long and now that's sort of gone, and I'm like, 'What do I do now?' I'm trying to figure out where I'm going with my life and that causes a lot of anxiety."

Despite having what has seemed like one of the most amicable celebrity break-ups we've seen in recent years, the Dublin born model says it hasn't all been rosy.

"It's not as easy as it looks and we do have our problems. But I would rather not put it out there. I just think it looks bad for everyone involved.

"Brian has two kids, I get on very well with them and I'd hate for them to see us publicly bash each other."

Vogue and Brian reportedly met for Christmas at her family home, and even exchanged gifts, as she revealed on social media earlier this month.

"How amazing is this sketch I got done for Brian for Christmas…I like giving presents someone can have forever," she wrote alongside this sketch of her ex and the former couple's shared dog Winston.
