Stacey Solomon and Joe Swash series for BBC One

Stacey & Joe, is a fly-on-the-wall reality series with Solomon and Swash…

Through social media, millions of followers have seen glimpses of their life at home, but this is the first time they are throwing open their doors to invite viewers into the heart of Pickle Cottage.

Joe Swash:

“We’ve been doing our best to keep this under wraps… But we’re so glad we can finally tell all of you about ‘Stacey & Joe’! Over the years, we’ve been asked a lot to do a show like this, but getting the opportunity to work with the BBC and Optomen felt properly exciting. There will be the normal madness of a family with lots of kids, plenty of animals and two busy parents. Here we go!”

In this six-part series, cameras follow the lives of Stacey and Joe, their children, four ducks and two dogs. With exclusive behind the scenes access, viewers are given a refreshing, honest take on their modern ‘blended family’. Raising their ‘pickles’, Zach, Leighton, Rex, Rose and Belle who are aged between 16 and one, is no mean feat especially combined with busy work schedules and ambitious passion projects like building a two-acre fishing lake.

Filmed during the summer and autumn of 2024, the series shows the couple as they celebrate their second wedding anniversary, revealing how they met and fell in love. Cameras follow 16-year-old Zach as he waits nervously for his GCSE results, and the programme watches on as Stacey wins big at the National Television Awards.

Can a much-needed summer holiday in Turkey bring some harmony to the couple as they face their busiest year ever and with Joe spending more time at home over the last 18 months, Stacey is adamant she wants to spend more time with the children. The series ends with the family all together as they prepare for a festive Pickle Cottage Christmas.

Stacey Solomon:

“2024 was the year me and Joe pushed ourselves out of our comfort zones. We took on different projects and tried new things. It’s been so amazing and nerve-wracking all at the same time… And we just want to keep doing that in 2025, starting with ‘Stacey & Joe’! Working with the BBC and Optomen on Sort Your Life Out has been a dream come true, so this team just made sense. We’ve loved showing a different side to our family’s fun and chaos. We can’t wait for you to join us at Pickle Cottage this year.”

Stacey & Joe will air on BBC One
