Stacey Solomon couldn't wipe the smile off her face as she jetted off on her hen do. The Loose Women star has been getting her home in order ahead of taking a few days away from her fiance Joe Swash and four children.
Her own getaway comes a couple of weeks after former EastEnders star Joe headed on his own stag do in Ibiza alongside comedian Rob Beckett, former BBC soap co-star Dean Gaffney and Stacey's dad David Solomon. And things got off to an interesting start for Stacey.
The 32-year-old was forced to dress up as a giant pickle by her Maid of Honour, sister Jemma, and her hens because the mum-of-four is always talking about her kids, who she affectionately calls her 'pickles.' Stacey had her classic bride-to-be white outfit covered with the huge green costume as she walked through departures to catch their flight.
Meanwhile, her hens had come equipped with masks of Joe's face - just so she doesn't forget who she is marrying later this month at their dream family home, Pickle Cottage.
But after all the airport shenanigans, Stacey and her nearest and dearest landed in a currently undisclosed, but sunny, location. Taking to Inastagram, Stacey was able to ditch her pickle costume and stunned in a white ensemble.
