STACEY Solomon has admitted she ‘can’t bear to look at’ Joe Swash, as she dishes new details on their marriage.
The TV personality, 36, first met the former Eastenders actor, 43, as she appeared on the tenth series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here, which saw her crowned Queen of the Jungle back in 2010, while Joe hosted the show’s spin-off.
But the couple, who went public with their relationship in 2016 before getting married in 2022, seem to be at odds with each other according to Stacey, who revealed they row ‘all the time’.
The mum-of-five, who rose to fame after finishing third on The X Factor back in 2009, made the admissions during a recent interview, where she opened up about her home life.
“How can you not fall out with your husband?”, Stacey told Good Housekeeping UK.
“That’s a pipe dream! We don’t have a house full of staff, although we do have help. My mum will put a wash on; Dad looks after the kids.

“Joe and I argue all the time over the stuff that’s got to be done. I feel like we’re in that era: five kids, three of whom are young, so everything’s a kerfuffle.”
The star, who also opened fans up to her home life on her BBC reality series Stacey and Joe, didn’t shy away from admitting that things between her and her hubby can get difficult.
But Stacey explained that despite their clashes, the couple continue to gravitate towards each other – as they prepare to celebrate their ten-year anniversary next year.
“[Joe and I] got together because we like each other”, she continued.”
“We have the same morals and values, so even if we do have a couple of months of, ‘F***king hell, I can’t even look at you right now,’ we’ll eventually remember why we got together in the first place.”
She also revealed her industry struggles in the interview, admitting she suffers from anxiety despite feeling like a “powerful woman”.
The star, who appears on the glossy mags’ January cover, attributed her anxiousness to a lack of control in the showbiz industry, despite her “ambitious” nature, which can be a “daunting” feeling.
But Stacey, who also discussed how people “label me as stupid”, says she is “much better at being able to feel in control”, as she experiences continued success with her work ventures.
Aside from her TV work, Stacey is also a spokesperson for a number of brands through lucrative endorsement deals.
Though this has led to fans accusing her of transforming her Instagram into “constant selling for Amazon”.
One fan voiced her verdict on the star’s money-making posts on Mumsnet.
“Her Instagram has become completely extraordinary recently – it’s constant selling for Amazon,” they wrote.
“One day it’s random Christmas decs, the next day it’s Oura rings. She was trying to flog a jetwash earlier this week!
“She used to do crafty bits and easy recipes and show us lots of pics of her ducks and nice kitchen.
“But now it’s just incessant flogging of c**p!”
The person went on to say they’d noticed that every thing Stacey “shills” seems to “follow a certain pattern”.
They said she begins by using an item while chatting, adding: “Item is front and centre but never mentioned”.
“Shortly after comes an update ‘so many of you are asking….here’s the amazon link’,” they added.
“Last night she was wittering on about making an Amazon storefront to load all her tat onto, whatever that is.”
The person concluded by writing: “The formula is incessant.
