Stacey Solomon hailed a 'legend' as she emerges from first flight as a family of seven wearing matching outfits

Fans shared in Stacey Solomon's excitement as she jetted off to Abu Dhabi with her husband Joe Swash and her five children. The Loose Women star and her family were rocking matching grey tracksuits as they jetted off for their first time as a family of seven.

Stacey, who gave birth to her second daughter Belle with Joe in February, was beaming in snaps shared on her Instagram as they went on their 'first adventure' together. The doting mum held adorable Belle in a picture taken at Heathrow Airport as she posed with Joe, 41, who held aloft their older daughter Rose, who they welcomed in October 2021.

Their son Rex, three, sported a cream outfit which matched perfectly with his mum's bum bag worn with a cropped grey sweatshirt and joggers. Former EastEnders actor Joe and her older sons Leighton, 10, and Zachary, 15, all wore similar outfits to the Sort Your Life Out presenter, 33.
