Stacey Solomon teases Pickle Cottage reality show with Joe Squash could be on the cards

Stacey Solomon has hinted she would be interested in starring in a reality show with fiancé Joe Swash, about their life in Pickle Cottage.

The couple, who have five kids between them, regularly document their life at the Essex home, and the renovations they've completed, with Stacey, 32, showing off her craft work.

Fans of the pair had reason to hope they might see more of the couples antics last week, when The X Factor star retweeted a comment from a follower, who was keen to a reality show focussed on the family.

The tweet read: "I just want TV commissioners to know that I WOULD watch an hour length documentary every night about Stacey Solomon & Joe Swash's life at Pickle Cottage. Even if- no, especially if- it featured what Stacey cleaned or upcycled that day."

Stacey's hint comes after it was reported that the couple have been approached for a show, centred on their humble abode.

An insider told Heat: “Fans love seeing what her and the family get up to and are always begging for more when she puts up videos and pictures on her Instagram.

“Stacey is keener than Joe, but knows she can win him round.

“She’s so grateful for all the opportunities that have come her way, which have mainly been because of her Insta family, and would love to show even more of her home life.”

If a series did happen, it would be the latest in a series of projects for the busy couple.

EastEnders star Joe, 40, recently announced he has created a family friendly cook book, set to be published in October, while Loose Women panellist Stacey has launched her first ever home fragrance with Air Wick and she is the new host for Bake Off: The Professionals.

It has been one year since the family moved into Pickle Cottage, their £1.2million dream home, and Stacey has regularly shared the many renovations and changes the house has undergone since.

New additions include a vintage bathtub in the couple's bedroom, a flower wall nursery for their baby daughter Rose and a dinosaur themed bathroom for son Rex, three.

Last month, I'm a Celeb winner Stacey shared a post on her Instagram, reflecting on the past 12 months.

Sharing a throwback post on Instagram, she told her 5.1 million followers: “On this day one year ago... Me, Joe, Harry, Zach, Leighton, Rex, Theo and Peanut moved into Pickle Cottage.”

Writing over a video of youngest son Rex running around in their huge garden, the mum added: “Never could we ever imagine what an adventure it would be.”

She continued: “It doesn’t feel like a year, it feels like yesterday. We are still as excited & in love with it as we were on this first day.

"13 years of saving and searching to find our Pickle Cottage & it’s been such a privilege to have the chance to bring it back to life."
