The BBC have renewed Stacey Solomon and Joe Swash’s fly-on-the-wall TV series for a third season.
EastEnders star Joe, 44, and Sort Your Life Out host Stacey, 36, have cashed in on their family brand and have already filmed two seasons of their reality TV show, Stacey And Joe.
And now the Beeb has given season three the green light and will continue to follow the couple’s blended family as they go about their day-to-day lives.
It followed their lives at Pickle Cottage with their children; Rex, six, Rose, four, and Belle, three. Stacey is also mum to Zachary, 18, and Leighton, 13, from previous relationships, while Joe has another son, Harry, who he had with an ex in 2007.
The second season, which featured six episodes, saw baby Belle’s first day of nursery, Zach’s 17th birthday and family skiing lessons.
The third series is believed to follow Joe’s efforts to build a fishing lake at their lavish countryside property.
The Daily Mail has contacted the BBC for a comment.
Stacey and Joe told the BBC: ‘If you watched the first series, you’ll know we’ve been talking about the lakes for ages… it feels a bit surreal to finally see it coming to life.
‘With the juggle of family life thrown in, we’re learning as we go, so we’ll be just as surprised as everyone else to see how it all unfolds!
‘A huge thank you to everyone who has watched Stacey & Joe so far. We’re so grateful and can’t wait for you to see this next series.’
Their show renewal comes after the couple’s battle rumours over their marriage, with Stacey recently forced to defend their relationship.
Their wedding was celebrated with family and celebrity friends at their £1.2million home.
Choosing to enjoy an intimate ceremony at their home, the couple chose not to televise their wedding or sign up for any magazine shoots.
Instead of selling images or profiting financially from the day, when posting on social media the couple asked outlets to donate to bereaved children’s charity Grief Encounter.
But there was one thing that Stacey and Joe’s wedding was not… legally binding.
The couple tied the knot at their Essex home, Pickle Cottage, back in July 2022 but they have still never made the marriage official.
At the time, Stacey said they were planning to register their marriage, but three and a half years on, TV’s golden couple have still not made their union official.
The bombshell comes just two weeks after the television personality was quizzed about her relationship with Joe, 44, having been spotted without her wedding ring.
A source told The Sun: ‘They always intended to do the legal part, but with six kids and busy diaries just haven’t got round to it, life has got in the way.
‘Stacey and Joe obviously knew that their garden wedding wasn’t legal and were upfront about that.’
The news might come as a surprise to fans, who watched the couple on their BBC reality show, Stacey & Joe.
Stacey also has lucrative family fashion ranges with Asda and Primark.
An insider said: ‘It will certainly raise eyebrows with firms and even TV execs that they’ve invested in a perfect picture that’s all a sham.’
