Stacey Solomon

STACEY Solomon has shared an insight into her daughter Belle’s third birthday celebrations.

Marking her youngest’s special day, mum-of-five Stacey, 36, pulled out all of the stops with plenty of sweet treats and decorations.

Hosting a home party for the youngster, there was a three-tiered pink castle birthday cake, a mini donut wall, a stacked fruit cake, an afternoon tea spread of fancies and smaller cakes and a selection of sweet and savoury snacks.

Belle, who Stacey shares with husband Joe Swash, also had a giant balloon in the shape of the number 3, a giant teddy bear balloon and a number of pastel decorations.

Sharing pictures from the celebrations, Stacey gushed on her Instagram page: “Birthday Belle. And just like that our littlest pickle is THREE. Time is a thief.

“Happy birthday darling girl. The most confident, hilarious, sweet, strong, happy little pickle. “

She continued: “The smallest but definitely the most mighty! If you ever wondered who the boss of pickle cottage is, she’s right here.

“To the moon and back beautiful Belle. And here’s to 3 years of me not being pregnant”.

Following the celebrations, Stacey’s husband Joe took Belle and her sister Rose, four, on a day out to further mark the big day.

Alongside their youngest girls, Stacey and Joe are parents to six-year-old son Rex.

Their blended family of six also includes Stacey’s sons Zach and Leighton, from previous relationships, and Joe’s son Harry, whom he shares with ex Emma Sophocleous.

Stacey and Joe gave fans a much closer look into family life last year with their eponymous TV show, a fly-on-the-wall look into their family life with their five kids. 

The series followed Stacey as she battled being a mum with her busy working life.

It also highlighted the spats Joe and Stacey have, which didn’t go unnoticed with fans. 

And following its popularity, the show is set to return for a third series, which is thought to air in late 2026.

It’s not known whether filming has begun yet, or whether fans will get to see milestones such as Belle’s birthday in the upcoming episodes.

JOE Swash and stepson Zach put on a dapper display as they posed for snaps before attending the TV Choice Awards tonight. 

Zach, 17 – the eldest child of 44-year-old Joe’s wife Stacey Solomon – scrubbed up in a navy suit, white shirt and striped tie. 

While the former EastEnders star opted for a black suit which he teamed with a low-cut black T-shirt. 

He captioned his upload: “Zach & Me off to represent the Solomon Swash’s tonight at the @tvchoicemagazine awards. 

“Proud to be your +1 Zachy. Love you boy.”

But eagle-eyed fans were quick to notice Joe was trying his best to minimize the height difference between him and Zach – by standing on his tip toes.

NO JOE-KE!

One wrote: “The tiptoes haha love your relationship with all the kids.”

Another said: “Joe on his tippy toes.”

Someone else wrote: “Joe on your tip toes is cracking me.”

And a fourth added: “Love how Joe is trying to be taller than Zach.”

Stacey is also mum to 13-year-old Leighton from a previous relationship while she and Joe share Rex, six, Rose, four, and Belle, two.

Joe is dad so son Harry, 18, from his relationship with ex Emma Sophocleous.

Last month The Sun told how Stacey is desperate to get fans back on side after a flood of negative backlash over her ‘out of touch’ posts.

A source revealed: “The bottom line is Stacey is no longer relatable. 

“People think she flaunts her wealth and moans all the time – now Stacey’s being advised to rein it in and shut her mouth or risk ruining everything she’s worked so hard for.

“The plan is for Stacey to go back to basics and remember who her audience is. No more bragging about expensive holidays and keeping in mind not everybody is in her position.”
