Stacey Solomon compared her family to the Brady Bunch in a humorous new post on Instagram.
The 33-year-old welcomed her fifth child and third with husband Joe Swash last month, and joked about her growing brood as she shared new photos of herself with the kids on Monday.
In the pictures posted, Solomon was seen cradling her three-week-old daughter Belle, while surrounded by her sons Zach, 14, Leighton, 10, her husband Swash and their daughter Rose, 15 months.
The couple’s son Rex, three, was also seen making an animated appearance in the background of the family photo.
“My whole heart is bursting. Feeling like the actual Brady Bunch,” Solomon captioned.
“Happy Sunday from our crazy family to yours. And yes, I washed my hair today so I told everyone to find something purple and mark the occasion with a family photo.”
The Brady Bunch was a hit US sitcom that ran from 1969 to 1974 and followed a large blended family with six children.
Solomon shares her eldest two sons with respective ex-partners Dean Cox and Aaron Barham, while Swash, 41, has a 15-year-old son shared with ex-fiancée Emma Sophocleous.
The couple, who married last July, previously admitted that they’ve had to work hard at navigating their own blended family after six years together.
Speaking on the Rob Beckett and Josh Widdicombe’s Parenting Hell podcast last year, Solomon said: “The blended family situation has been a rocky road.
“That has never been easy. We have always had to work really hard to make sure everyone feels secure.”
It appears though that the Solomon/Swash family are in the best place together, following the arrival of their latest family member.
Solomon shared a sweet clip of big brother Rex stroking and holding his baby sister Belle, as he was seen in another photo enjoying quality time with his younger sisters.
Speaking on her children’s bond last week, Solomon wrote on Instagram: “My heart. Belle & Rose forever & always…These days watching them all fall in love are my favourite.
“Rex used to love to cuddle Rose like this when she was tiny and want to sleep next to her 𥹠So seeing Rose now cuddling her little sister is bringing back the bestest memories and adding new ones that I just never ever ever want to forget xx”.
