The updates kept coming as Stacey posted a heartwarming clip of her son Leighton teaching little Rex to swim, which she dubbed her "favourite video of the day." During lockdown, Stacey has been flaunting her DIY prowess, keeping fans abuzz with home makeover tales. Two bathrooms in her abode have undergone enchanting transformations into mermaid and dinosaur sanctums. The Solomon-Swash residence, affectionately termed Pickle Cottage, boasts an impressive 2.5-acre plot. For Joe's landmark 40th, Stacey outdid herself by crafting a bespoke 'den,' adorned with his TV memorabilia, a pool table and an inspirational quote across a wooden beam: 'We don't stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing'. The cosy and chic aesthetic continues seamlessly into their kitchen, featuring a stunning stone wall. Adding to the family charm, the Solomon homestead also houses a few furry friends. Just last week, Stacey took to Instagram to update fans on Teddy, the family pooch, following his grooming session at Hopefield Animal Sanctuary. Despite facing mobility issues, Teddy is spirited thanks to ongoing physiotherapy, with Stacey sharing: "Happy Tuesday. While I was working yesterday Teddy went with Leanne from @hopefieldanimalsanctuary and had a hair cut and groom, he's so happy. He's doing so well with his physio and just being the amazing boy even though he can't use his legs anymore." The ex-X Factor sensation is a proud pet mum to two dogs, Teddy and Peanut, and a flock of five ducks. Teddy is a sprightly Cocker Spaniel, while Peanut is a charming Dachshund. Recently, the family home has been chirping with joy as they welcomed four new chicks. The ITV darling is also a doting mum to her brood of five: Zachary, 18, Leighton, 12, Rex, 5, Rose, 3 and Belle 2. Her first son, Zachary, was born when she was just 17, fathered by her childhood love Dean Cox. Her second son, Leighton, was born to her then-fiancé Aaron Barnham.
