Stacey Solomon says that she and husband Joe Swash have entered a "non-romantic" phase in their relationship, staying firm on their family set-up.

The 33-year-old former X Factor contestant reportedly decided against having another child, citing her inability to handle the responsibilities of welcoming a sixth baby.

The revelation came during a photoshoot at the couple’s Essex home, known as Pickle Cottage, where Stacey and Joe tied the knot in July 2022.

The Loose Women panelist toldOK Magazine: “I think me and Joe are in our non-romantic era.

“It is important just to get time for us, but we’re at that stage in our life where that’s not really possible.

“We recently went to a friend’s wedding and had a night together, which was really lovely, but outside of that it’s once or twice a year that happens.”

It goes without saying that enlarging Stacey’s family was not under consideration.

The mum-of-five said: “We don’t want any more – we cannot cope with it.

“Yeah, we wanted all these kids and we’re so grateful to have them.

“So we will get romantic… but in 20 years’ time.”

The telly personality went on to emphasise her primary focus to maximise her quality time with her family, which includes Joe's 15-year-old son, Harry, from a prior relationship.

Stacey revealed that she had experienced the challenges of living on a limited budget as a single mother.

Considering the ongoing cost-of-living crisis, Stacey acknowledged her desire to ensure affordability for everyone with her ASDA homeware collection, which boasts over 200 pieces.

She said: “My biggest bugbear is that sometimes, when you are really struggling and have to make ends meet, you feel that you have to get the worst version of everything because that’s the cheapest option. It just shouldn’t be like that.

“There are ways of making things that are still responsibly made, that are still beautiful, that still have good materials and are good quality, but are at a decent price.”

The busy mum also admitted that maintaining her household could sometimes pose a challenge.

“Having five kids and two dogs, I get through so much,” she explained.

Stacey continued: “Sometimes it makes me want to cry.

“Hanging washing on the line would be OK if it was just mine and Joe’s, but when you’ve got a big family, it’s relentless and the minute you empty that washing basket, it’s full up again.”
