Stacey Solomon addresses 'complicated blended families' in poignant message to Joe Swash

Stacey Solomon has addressed 'complicated' blended families in a message to her husband Joe Swash. The mum-of-five, 33, shared a series of sweet snaps to mark Father's Day yesterday (June 18) as she posed in the mirror alongside her dad, Joe and their three children.

Stacey, who has two sons Leighton and Zac from previous relationships, celebrated the special day with her son Rex and daughters Rose and Belle, each of whom she shares with former EastEnders actor Joe, who also has his son Harry from a former relationship.

Whilst sharing an adorable photo album with her 5.7 million Instagram followers, the Loose Women star opened up about life as a 'blended' family.

Taking to social media, Stacey shared how it can be 'complicated' but that Joe, 41, does it 'effortlessly'.

Sharing mirror selfies featuring her children and her dad, Stacey wrote: "My dad, their Dad, Our hero’s. Happy Fathers Day, Dad & Daddy! I know you both didn’t get enough time with your own father’s but oh my goodness I know they are looking down on you both so bloody proud of the fathers you have become.

"Dad not a day goes by that I don’t need you and you’re always there. No matter what. What a privilege it is to have you in our lives. Joe, I know it’s not easy & blended families are complicated to say the least… but you make it all seem effortless."

She added: "You’re the most incredible husband, father and father figure to ALL of our children and I feel every emotion raising our family with you.

"Everyone else comes first and nothing is ever too much. especially grateful for how much time you’ve taken off recently to take over at home while I’m here there and everywhere. As hard as it is leaving some days knowing you’re there giving them every bit of love they could ever need makes it easier.

"Too the moon and back Joe. To the moon and back dad. Thinking of anyone struggling today… lots & lots of love. P.S Rose’s sassy side eye in every picture we ever take."
