Spencer, 34, has teamed up with Disney+ to film himself trying to find Michael – after months of therapy.

He says: “It was important for me to get my head around the fact I might come face to face with my brother’s frozen body.

“I knew it was going to be a gut-wrenching and emotional journey.”

The ex-Made In Chelsea star, brother James, 47, and his wife Pippa Middleton, 39, have raised funds for the Michael Matthews Foundation.

Spencer’s Big Fish podcast is out every Wednesday on Global Player and other good podcast apps.
