Stacey Solomon is soon set to tie the knot with EastEnders fiancé Joe Swash.
The couple, who share kids Rex and Rose together, will get married at their £1.2m Pickle Cottage home before the end of the month. They plan to carry out their nuptials in the gardens of their luxurious property.
Loose Women star Stacey, 32, and 40-year-old Joe's wedding was initially postponed due to the Coronavirus pandemic. They later pushed it back after Stacey fell pregnant with Rose as they wanted all of their children to see them walk down the aisle.

Stacey and Joe are one of the nation's favourite celebrity couples and have built a happy family home for themselves. As well as the two children that they share Stacey is also mum to Zachary and Leighton and Joe has Harry from previous relationships. While Stacey now seems blissfully happy, the star has had her fair share of ups and downs in the romance department, reported The Mirror.
Stacey first rose to fame on The X Factor as a single teenage mum back in 2009. She fell pregnant with her son Zachary when she was just 17. She met his dad, Dean Cox, at college where they were studying performing arts.
Not much is known about Stacey and Dean's relationship, other than them being childhood sweethearts. Stacey has previously spoken about the shame she felt giving birth as a young mum.
She told the Loose Women panel in 2018: "I always felt the stigma of being a young mum and any of those doubts that me alone wasn't enough for my child came from within rather than from anybody else. I felt that I personally attacked myself and and didn't believe in myself enough to raise children. I was more conscious of people thinking 'look at that kid with a kid'."
Stacey started dating Aaron Barnham around the same time she appeared on the ITV talent show. The pair got engaged in 2011. Stacey gave birth to their son Leighton in 2012, but Aaron and Stacey called it quits on their relationship two years later.
At the time of the split, a spokesperson for Stacey said: "It's with regret that I can confirm that Stacey's relationship with Aaron has unfortunately come to an end. Her priority is her two children. She thanks her fans for their support at this time."
Following her split from Aaron, Stacey started dating Stephen Gilchrist Glover, better known as Jackass' Steve-O. The pair started dating in 2015 after they met on the set of Channel 4's The Jump.
They were together for just a few months before deciding to call it quits on their relationship. Speculation at the time pointed towards distance being the culprit.
Stacey first met her current fiancé Joe Swash back in 2010, when Stacey was crowned queen of the jungle on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! Joe, who had won the show in 2018, was hosting the ITV2 spin-off, and the pair became friends, although romance didn’t blossom as Stacey was in a relationship at the time.
They became an item in 2016, enjoying on a family holiday with Stacey's sons shortly after going public. They went from strength to strength, presenting I'm A Celebrity: Extra Camp together and moving in together in 2018.
The couple had their first baby together, son Rex, in 2019. Joe went on to propose to Stacey in December 2020, with the couple buying Pickle Cottage in March 2021 and welcomed baby Rose in November of the same year.
