TV personality Stacey Solomon had initially planned to celebrate Valentine’s Day with her family in Switzerland,
but a surprising turn of events led them to an unexpected yet magical night in Paris instead.
The Loose Women star, who shares a blended family with husband Joe Swash, took to Instagram to share their spontaneous adventure, much to the delight of her fans.
A Valentine’s Day Detour to Paris
Stacey, 34, had announced that the family would be marking the occasion in Switzerland. However, a missed train altered their plans, resulting in a last-minute overnight stay in Paris.
Despite the unplanned detour, the family made the most of their time in the French capital.
Sharing the experience with her followers, Stacey posted a heartwarming update featuring snaps of the family at the Eiffel Tower. In her caption, she wrote:
“Happy Valentine’s Day from the very unexpected Eiffel Tower […] We missed our train to Switzerland, so it was a night in Paris instead.”
Rather than seeing the change in plans as a setback, Stacey embraced the moment with enthusiasm, adding:
“So we came to the Eiffel Tower because why not? The boys thought it was the best mistake that ever happened—they’ve always wanted to see it.”
The family’s positive outlook on the situation resonated with fans, who flooded the comments with messages of support. One follower wrote, “Everything happens for a reason, and if you’ve had fun, then life is good. Enjoy, guys!” Another fan humorously pointed out how quickly Stacey’s son Leighton has grown, commenting, “Erm ok, when did Leighton grow that tall?”
A Blended Family Adventure
Stacey and Joe’s blended family includes their five children: Zachary, 16, Leighton, 12, Rex, five, Rose, three, and one-year-old Belle. While Stacey shares Zachary and Leighton with previous partners, she and Joe have three children together. Additionally, Joe has a son, Harry, from a previous relationship.
The family resides in their Essex home, known as Pickle Cottage, which has become a staple in Stacey’s social media updates. Their spontaneous Parisian adventure once again showcased their strong family bond and their ability to find joy in unexpected moments.
Exciting New Reality Show: ‘Stacey & Joe’
Beyond their family adventures, Stacey and Joe are preparing for another major milestone: the launch of their upcoming BBC reality series, Stacey & Joe. The fly-on-the-wall documentary, set to premiere in Spring 2025, will give viewers a candid look into their lives, from parenting and work to the everyday chaos of raising a large family.
Announcing the series on Instagram, the couple shared their excitement and nervousness about opening up their lives to the public in a whole new way. Their post read:
“A new year. A very new adventure. Coming Spring 2025. We’ve been so nervous & excited to share this. Here is us. All of us. In 2024, we opened up our home & made a series about our lives, family, work & everything in between. It was a huge leap into the unknown & it’s been an absolute whirlwind making it.”
They went on to explain that they had been contemplating the idea of a documentary for a long time, and with encouragement from fans, they finally decided to take the plunge.
“Last year as a family, we decided to say yes to more & do things we’d never done. We have spoken about making a documentary for a long time, and lots of you have asked too. So here we go—a journey with us every second of the way. Through the laughter, the tears & the craziness… We hope it makes you smile, feel good & hopefully enjoy getting to know us all a little more.”
The announcement was met with enthusiasm, with many fans eager to see a more in-depth look at the couple’s life behind the scenes. Given Stacey’s natural charisma and Joe’s fun-loving personality, the series is expected to be a heartwarming and entertaining watch.
