Stacey and Joe are parents to Rose, 14 months, and Rex, three, while she also shares son Leighton, 10, with ex-partner Aaron Barham, and eldest Zachery, 14, with Dean Cox.

Joe is also a father to son Harry, 15, who he shares with his ex-fiancée Emma Sophocleous.

Speaking on Lorraine earlier this month, Stacey said they are so ‘grateful they get the chance’ to extend their brood.

She said: ‘Nearly there now, very soon. It was a surprise but we’re so grateful that we get the chance to do it again.’ 

When asked how she keeps her busy home life balanced, Stacey added: ‘We do our best, nothing I do is perfect and sorted. I’m grateful just to be alive so I’m always really happy.’
