Stacey Solomon was ready to head back home after a whirlwind trip to Miami with Olivia Attwood and Rochelle Humes. The TV presenter, 36, flew out with her two sons, Zachary, 18, and Leighton, 13, and sister Gemma for the PR branded holiday with Space NK.
Taking to Instagram on Monday, Stacey said she couldn't wait to be reunited with her husband Joe Swash, 44, and their children: Rex, six, Rose, four, and Belle, three. Ignoring ongoing questions about their marriage, Stacey shared a boat snap on her Instagram stories and wrote: 'Time to go back and get ready to go home. I can't wait to get back to Joe, Rex, Rose and Belle.'
The TV favourite revealed she had stayed an extra day in Miami so they could visit Sandspur Island, a popular viewing spot for raccoons. In the photo, Stacey cut a casual figure in black sportswear and rocked a baseball cap.
Stacey and Joe's marriage has become a talking point recently after it was revealed they are yet to formally register their union. Just hours after the revelation emerged, Stacey was photographed wearing her engagement ring but no wedding band. However, a source told Daily Mail: 'They have six kids. If you look back at when they actually got married, it was just like a whirlwind, baby after baby. They just haven't got round to it yet.'
Stacey kept her followers updated on her trip to Miami with her sons. Sharing a photo of herself and her sons at the airport at the start of the trip, she said: 'The next few days are going to be magic. I was invited on the most incredible trip thanks to Jinny & the @spacenk team. I'm so lucky to have been asked & I'm so grateful... It genuinely doesn't feel real! I'll never take this for granted it's just not real! I decided to book Zach & Leighton to come out with me because, with the little pickles, we don't get to hang out just us a lot, & I miss them. So I'm so excited to spend some special time with my big boys & some amazing people in MIAMI! I mean WHAT IN THE WORLD....'
She added: 'Here we go boys. I'll bring you all with me. Thank you all for supporting me which is the only reason I even get asked on these type of incredible things. I'm so grateful for you guys.'
The fun-filled holiday came after filming for their family reality TV show was paused, with claims tensions at home had put the shooting schedule into a tailspin. The Daily Mail revealed the crew were booked back in December to start filming but tensions at Pickle Cottage became increasingly difficult to manage behind the cameras, with an insider revealing 'there have been problems between Stacey and Joe.' It resumed late last month and Stacey was spotted shooting scenes for Stacey & Joe at Scotts Tulip Farm in Brentwood, a stone's throw from her £1.2 million home Pickle Cottage. The BBC announced it has given season three the green light and will continue to follow the couple's blended family as they go about their day-to-day lives.
