A new series about former X Factor contestant Stacey Solomon and actor Joe Swash will air on the BBC, giving viewers an insight into the couple’s life together.

The series, Stacey And Joe, will follow the couple and children Zach (Solomon’s first son with ex-boyfriend Dean Cox), Leighton (Solomon’s son with ex-fiance Aaron Barnham), Rex, Rose and Belle, as well as their four ducks and two dogs, during their day-to-day life at their Pickle Cottage home in Essex.

Airing on BBC One, the series aims to show how the pair balance family life with their work schedules and passion projects such as building a two-acre fishing lake.

Speaking about the show, Solomon, 35, said: “2024 was the year me and Joe pushed ourselves out of our comfort zones.

“We took on different projects and tried new things. It’s been so amazing and nerve-wracking all at the same time, and we just want to keep doing that in 2025, starting with Stacey And Joe.

“Working with the BBC and Optomen (the show’s producers) on Sort Your Life Out has been a dream come true, so this team just made sense.

“We’ve loved showing a different side to our family’s fun and chaos. We can’t wait for you to join us at Pickle Cottage this year.”

What to expect from Stacey And Joe series

The series was filmed during the summer and autumn of 2024 and shows the couple as they celebrate their second wedding anniversary, revealing how they met and fell in love.

The series also follows 16-year-old Zach as he waits for his GCSE results and Solomon winning at the National Television Awards.

Swash, 42, added: “We’ve been doing our best to keep this under wraps but we’re so glad we can finally tell all of you about Stacey And Joe.

“Over the years, we’ve been asked a lot to do a show like this but getting the opportunity to work with the BBC and Optomen felt properly exciting.

“There will be the normal madness of a family with lots of kids, plenty of animals and two busy parents. Here we go.”
