HIS HUMBLE BEGINNINGS
Spencer was born in Melbourne, Australia, and grew up with two older brothers and a younger sister. His three siblings are all doctors. Meanwhile, Spencer went to a private school.
During that time, he was interested in auditioning for the Australian soap "Neighbours." In 1994, Spencer made his debut on the show, playing Billy Kennedy, one of three children of Susan and Karl Kennedy.
Eventually, the family joined Ramsay Street, and Spencer stayed for five years. In 1999, he announced his departure from the show. However, the actor later admitted that he felt "bored" while performing on the soap.

RAISING TO STARDOM
Spencer started to build a solid career when he joined the cast of "House" as Dr. Robert Chase in 2004. In an interview, he said that the script appealed to him because it was dark and he comes from a medical background.
Yet, according to several fans, Matt's ongoing health issues may lead to an exit.
The last episode of "House" aired in 2012, and since then, Spencer has starred in the popular series "Chicago Fire," playing Matthew Casey. As for the actor, he's glad to be settled in. Spencer also said:
"When you do a show like this, it's hard to tell how much it's you that's changed, and how much your character's changed, and where the line is."
Last April, it was reported that the recent developments regarding Spencer's character caused concern among fans. In the recent episodes, Matthew has been suffering from some health troubles.
"
" usually keeps cast departure details quiet, and Matthew's departure has not been addressed publicly. Yet, according to several fans, Matthew's ongoing health issues may lead to an exit.
A MARRIED MAN
Spencer, who was nominated for "Choice TV Breakout Performance – Male" at the 2005 Teen Choice Awards, formally became a married man in June 2020 after tying the knot with longtime girlfriend, Kali Woodruff.
Although there was a COVID-19 surge, changes of venue, a puff of Saharan dust, and a raging storm, the wedding went on as planned, and he's a fortunate man, the actor said in an interview.
