It was later reported Stacey “feared she could lose it all” following the outburst.
But the mum-of-five has brushed all of that off to reveal the latest addition to the £1.2million Essex property she shares with husband Joe Swash and the kids.
In a new clip on Instagram, she told fans: “Ages ago I was like, ‘I’m going to get bees’. But I thought I’m not getting bees unless I really study it properly and learn everything about it.
“So I found this incredible lady called Helen who does beekeeping courses, there’s a theory and a practical.
“I booked myself in for the course. Teddy got really sick and I said to the lady, ‘my dog’s not very well, I can’t leave him for too long, can we do some of the course at my house?’
“And she said ‘we can do the theory at your house then you can come and do the practical where I’ve got my hive’.”
But Stacey explained that, while at Pickle Cottage, her plumber Mark told them he’d just driven past a hive of bees, adding: “Helen was like, ‘let’s go get them, that could be your colony’.”
Despite Stacey’s protests that she “wasn’t ready”, Helen pushed on and they went to collect the bees to bring them back to Pickle Cottage.
Stacey then proudly showed off the hive, adding: “I have my very own Pickle Cottage bee hive and it’s the best thing ever.”
Other animals who call the property home include four ducks – Daisy, Delilah, Daphne and Delphine – and dogs Teddy and Peanut.
After her TV Bafta rant, insiders told how Stacey was “upset” and didn’t want to come across as “ungrateful”.
A source told OK! Magazine: “The negative comments really upset her, she takes them to heart, she never wants to be seen as ungrateful, because she’s not.
“She’s a really hard worker and gives her all to everything, so it’s devastating when it doesn’t pay off, and it understandably makes her worry.”
They added: “The fear of ‘Could I lose it all too? Could it all be over?’ is always there to some extent.”
