Stacey Solomon was left fuming as she shared the rude nickname that her husband Joe Swash has for her on her new Channel 4 show, Stacey Solomon’s Renovation Rescues

Stacey Solomon revealed her husband’s cheeky nickname for her on her latest Channel 4 television gig, Stacey Solomon’s Renovation Rescues.

The multi-talented star had been happily showcasing her impressive DIY skills to her Instagram followers ever since they became proud owners of Pickle Cottage in March 2021. Her blossoming passion for organisation and creativity has attracted a slew of TV offers. Following the popular show Sort Your Life Out, she has now bravely taken centre stage – hosting her own home-makeover programme for Channel 4.

The revelation about Joe’s rather insulting sobriquet came about during filming at their beloved Pickle Cottage. Joe casually appeared on the scene, along with their adorable trio of kiddiwinks. The 34-year-old Loose Women panellist was chatting to the cameras about dreams of converting their garage into a personal fitness space.

With understandable worries about losing his precious fishing gear storage, Joe popped in to get an idea about her renovation plans. The lively conversation veered towards sharing the space, when Stacey explained her idea of creating a partition wall that would respect their separate interests.

However, the former EastEnders actor didn’t exactly share her enthusiasm about the space-sharing agreement; leading Stacey to hilariously reveal to the crew that “Joe call’s me Donald Trump because he says I’m forever building walls.”

Meanwhile, according to the Daily Star, tears were shed as the bubbly Essex girl guided emotional homeowners Caroline and Erik through a stressful renovation process in Enfield. The hapless couple had hoped to transform their humble bungalow into a dream home but wept over some expensive setbacks.

The couple were considering re-mortgaging their house and borrowing money from family to complete the project, until their saviour Stacey arrived with some cost-saving ideas.

Stacey, a mother of five, was hands-on as she assisted them in panelling a feature wall and secret door, saving them from spending £6,000 on bi-fold doors. She also persuaded them to retain light-restoring windows in the hallway to keep it bright, which saved even more money.

Caroline and Erik, who had been brought to tears at the beginning of the programme, were left beaming by the end. They had initially been quoted £65,000 to finish the rebuild, but ended up coming in £5,000 under budget thanks to Stacey’s assistance.
