Stacey Solomon teases first look inside wedding as she prepares to marry Joe Swash at their £1.2m home

Stacey Solomon has given fans a first glimpse at what they can expect from her wedding later this month. The Loose Women panellist is set to marry her fiancé Joe Swash on July 25, as Joe accidentally revealed the date of their ceremony whilst live on TV.

The pair met for the first time on the set of I'm A Celebrity back in 2010. Stacey, 33, was crowned 'queen of the jungle' after participating in the show, and former winner Joe, 40, was there to watch her victory.

After winning I'm A Celeb himself two years earlier in 2008, Joe went on to present the show’s spin-off programme Extra Camp. Fast forward 11 years and the couple are now happily engaged with two children together, daughter Rose and son Rex.

Along with Stacey's two sons Zachary and Leighton, the blended family all live together in their adorably named home - Pickle Cottage - which is where Stacey and Joe will tie the knot in just a few weeks time.

Joe and Stacey got engaged on Christmas Eve in 2020 during a family woodland walk. They were due to wed last year but their big day was postponed due to the pandemic and because Stacey fell pregnant with Rose, who was born on Stacey's 32nd birthday in October.

The family bought their £1.2 million family home in the countryside in Essex back in March 2021. Ever since then the mum-of-five has been documenting the renovation journey of her 'forever' home with her fans on Instagram.

As the preparations for their wedding are underway, Stacey has teased a first look inside their wedding by sharing a snippet of some of the decorations with her 5.3 million followers.

Photos shared on Stacey's Instagram page reveal a beautiful floral archway hung over one of the doors of Pickle Cottage, featuring white roses and eucalyptus.

Alongside the images which featured Stacey, her sausage dog Peanut and baby daughter Rose, the star wrote: "Wedding door done. This will forever be my favourite door of all time… I can not believe it’s already July. And we are getting married at the end of the month. Happy July Everyone. Love you all. I can’t believe it’s actually happening."

Stacey then went on to explain the special meaning behind the door, " Something old - the horseshoes we found in pickle cottage when we moved in. Something new - the Mr & Mrs sign. Something borrowed - @emlouflowers leant me some of her beautiful white Roses and eucalyptus. Something blue - the sky as we finished it."

Stacey, who hosts the BBC show Sort Your Life Out, previously said her a anxiety was 'through the roof' as she worried about Joe doing 'something silly' on his stag do. She has now shared a collage of screenshots from her loving FaceTime calls with Joe.

She wrote in the caption: "Hope you're having the best time, with your best friends going out until silly o clock in the morning and sleeping until the afternoon. You deserve it. The best dad ever who rarely gets the chance to ever do this because we are raising a family. Go for your life bubs. I love you. Can't wait to marry you."
