Stacey Solomon's Date Night Gatecrashed by Ex Dean Cox

Stacey Solomon and Joe Swash's rare child-free date at the British Grand Prix took an unexpected turn when Stacey's ex-boyfriend Dean Cox and his wife joined them, along with her father Dave. The Sort Your Life Out star, 36, had arranged babysitters for her children and was looking forward to quality time with her husband, but the romantic plans were gatecrashed by her 'baby daddy'.

In a video shared on social media, Stacey joked about the situation, saying: 'Do you know who's really important to bring on a date day with your husband? Your last baby daddy and his wife - Zach's dad, Zach's stepmum, my dad, are all on this date with us.' She added: 'It's not a date day without bringing your dad! This is Dave's lifelong dream so we couldn't not come on the date without him but now Joe feels like the third wheel.' Joe jokingly referred to himself as a 'gooseberry'.

Before the event, Stacey shared loved-up snaps with Joe and wrote: 'Mum & dad date day with you doesn't matter what they say, to the moon and back. A rare day for us.
