Spencer Matthews successfully finished running 30 marathons in 30 days across the Jordanian desert.

The celebrity, aged 36, gained popularity on the TV show Made In Chelsea after growing up in a wealthy family thanks to his father David, who is a very successful hotel owner worth £2 billion.

Spencer's journey for charity in Jordan was a very eye-opening and humbling adventure. It was a stark contrast to his usual life of luxury, where he had to go without running water, toilets, or electricity. The only food available was chicken and pitta breads, making his experience even more challenging.

In this interview with MailOnline, he discusses the difficult truth of living in the Jordanian desert while undertaking his huge task...

I bathed in unclean water every few days, there were no restrooms, we slept on the floor, and I ate only pita bread to survive: Spencer Matthews shared the challenges of completing 30 marathons in the desert in a recent interview with MailOnline.

We didn't have a steady supply of food and almost never had cold water to drink. When it's 44 degrees and you're extremely thirsty, room temperature water just isn't satisfying. I'm not even going to mention the meals, because somehow, I managed to avoid getting sick.

Spencer finished running 30 marathons in 30 consecutive days across the challenging Jordanian desert last Tuesday.

The entire journey was one of the most unforgettable moments in my life. Finding solace in suffering can be a deeply transformative experience.

Some individuals might see this and be amazed by the idea of running 30 desert marathons in 30 days back-to-back. However, we found it quite amusing on Tuesday evening because we are currently staying in a hotel.

In the end, my body performed better than I thought it would. I dedicated a lot of time to preparing for this challenge.

This challenge was extremely risky, it was one-of-a-kind and had never been attempted before.

I'm not unhappy about where I live, but it did add another layer of difficulty to an already challenging situation.

There were no facilities for water or bathroom use. The conditions were very basic. We slept on the bare ground without any comforts.

We didn't have easy access to normal meals and hardly ever had cold water to drink. When it's 44 degrees and you're thirsty, warm water just doesn't do the trick. I'm not even going to complain about the food because thankfully, I didn't get sick.

Participating in a month-long ultramarathon without getting sick is very uncommon. I am grateful for my good health during this event. During the 30 days, my diet consisted mainly of hummus, rice, chicken, and pita bread.

It was a test, and personally, it was a very humbling experience. It has opened my eyes to the simple everyday luxuries we often overlook, such as being able to use the bathroom whenever we need to, wash our hands, and live in a clean environment.

The TV personality, who is 36 years old, became famous on the show Made In Chelsea because of his wealthy background. His father, David, is a successful hotel owner worth $2.6 billion.

There was no consistent electricity available. We often overlook these basic necessities. When my phone died, I was without power for two days.

I went several days without bathing, and when I finally did, it was by using a hose or tap to pour warm water over myself while lying on the concrete floor. The water was likely dirty, but I also shaved my head during this time.

When you were feeling refreshed and energized, passing by a faucet in the UK may not have meant much to you. But for us, it was a lifesaver.

There wasn't a reliable electricity source. It's easy to overlook these basic necessities. When my phone died, I was without power for two days.

I was looking forward to reaching a town soon in order to recharge my device. That's what actually happened.

Spencer's exciting adventure in the desert involved him running more than 42.2km, or 26.2 miles, each day.

The TV host confesses that he feels proud of himself after finishing the massive trip, where he traveled 786 miles in extremely hot weather reaching up to 38 degrees.

Spencer struggled with alcohol addiction for many years after becoming famous on E4 reality show Made In Chelsea, which made it difficult for him to feel proud and fulfilled.

Running such a long distance of almost 1,300 kilometers will definitely result in some discomfort and minor injuries. I was amazed by the resilience of the human body and my own capacity for healing.

During previous long runs, if I injured my knee, I would just take a few days off to recover. But this time, I couldn't do that.

I experienced discomfort in my ligaments, joints, both knees, and tendons. I underwent a tendon endoscopy in my right foot, and at one point, it felt like both my Achilles tendons had ruptured, although they had not actually done so.

I had a major tumble on the final day of my adventure, but fortunately it happened on the last day. I was sprinting through extremely rugged terrain at a fast pace.

I fell really hard and didn't even notice until I had tumbled down the rough slope. I was fortunate that I didn't injure myself.

I was moving quickly when it happened, and there was a sudden collision. I was fortunate not to have injured my ankle or anything serious, and I was able to keep going.

I didn't think about the upcoming challenge while I was working on this, because every day felt like a new obstacle.

Finishing the race has marked the end of this challenge, but it also signifies the beginning of a brand new chapter in my life.

I must admit, it may sound exaggerated, but I excel at this and have a passion for it.

I don't think I will be making many more 30-day records in the future because our kids are still very young and being away from them for a whole month is tough.

I want to give a huge shoutout to Vogue for taking care of our kids while I was off pursuing my dream. They really held down the fort!

Spencer has been gathering funds for Global's Make Some Noise charity, which helps support various other charities such as the Childhood Tumour Trust, Suicide&Co, as well as education charities ATF and Playskill.
