Stacey Solomon has posted a rare picture of her husband Joe Swash on social media, appearing to dismiss ongoing speculation about their relationship. The image comes after fans noticed she had been seen without her wedding ring and had omitted Joe from a birthday tribute to her son Zach.
The speculation began when Stacey criticised items Joe was selling on his TikTok shop, joking that they looked like 'c**p' and calling him a 'k**b' in separate videos. She was then photographed on several occasions without her wedding ring, prompting concern among followers.
Concerns grew when Stacey failed to mention Joe in a birthday post for Zach, while Joe shared his own message separately. In the four photographs she posted, her wedding ring hand was deliberately tucked out of sight in her pocket, with her right arm draped over her son.
However, Joe was present for Zach's birthday celebrations, taking the teenager, along with Stacey's half-brother Josh and son Rex, to Wembley for the Carabao Cup final. Arsenal, Joe's team, suffered a 2-0 defeat to Manchester City. Stacey documented the outing, writing on her Instagram Story: 'Zachary's birthday present was a ticket for the football so the boys are absolutely buzzing.'
Addressing the rumours during an appearance on This Morning, Stacey said: 'There's a new rumour each week. I'm terrible. I don't read any of that stuff.' She added, jokingly: 'Have I not been wearing my ring? I probably took it off to go to the toilet or something, I don't know!'
The couple, who began dating in 2016 after meeting on the I'm A Celebrity spin-off show, have faced similar speculation before, with Stacey sharing a Mother's Day picture without her ring while Joe posted a smiling family photo on his own account.
