Stacey Solomon has opened up about her frustration that her husband, Joe Swash, makes her appear 'cold as ice' due to his emotional nature. The couple appeared on the BBC's Mr and Mrs quiz show, where a clip posted on YouTube showed them answering questions about each other.
During the game, they were asked who was more likely to cry during a film, and both pointed to Joe. Stacey explained, 'I don't cry and I really struggle to cry. And sometimes, Joe really shows me up with his level of emotion.' She added, 'When you've got a crying husband, everyone thinks you're cold as ice. They think I'm the ice queen.'
Stacey recalled their wedding day, saying Joe was sobbing while she struggled to match his emotion. 'I was trying to match his level of emotion, and I couldn't cry,' she said. Joe joked he was crying because he was 'trying to get out of there,' but Stacey imitated his tearful reaction, saying he was 'so glad' to have met her.
The couple, who married in 2022, also bickered about crying during childbirth. Stacey noted Joe 'shows me up in front of everyone' when their babies are born, while Joe defended himself, saying crying is 'appropriate' at such times. Stacey retorted, 'I pushed it out.'
This comes after Stacey confessed on her Sort Your Life Out podcast that everyone on set is 'broken' by the end of the seven-day filming schedule. She imitated a viewer asking if they really complete the declutter in a week, confirming they do because legally they must, adding, 'At the end of that week, I always think...everyone is broken.'
