Yahoo News Joe Swash and Stacey Solomon in surprising admission about their married life
Bantering back and forth on Celebrity Gogglebox, Joe Swash, 42, teased his partner Stacey Solomon, 34, recalling: "We used to have pillow talk, didn't we?" To which Stacey cheekily said: "We used to sleep in bed together, do you remember that? Before we had three kids in four years! " The couple shared how having Rex, age five, Rose, age two, and Belle of 15 months - along with Stacey's sons Leighton, 12, and Zachary, 16, and Joe's son Harry, 16, - has inevitably impacted their bedtime routines.
In a more heartfelt moment Stacey said during her appearance on the Glad We Had This Chat podcast with host Caroline Hirons: "I'm a phenomenal mum. I'm done with mum guilt. If you're the mum who loves to be out at work, and I'm the mum who's like, oh, I love playing at home. They're both good mums. I don't understand why one is better than the other in my opinion."
She went on to discuss future possibilities too: "Whatever phase of life I'm at, I might be this mum right now. But in two years time, if, let's say, I've decided to stay at home and never work again, I might be like, I want to go back to work. Does that make me a bad mum? No, no, it makes me a human that my children can see that I am still a human being. Not just mum. I'm not a mythical creature with no feelings and no ambitions."

The Loose Women panellist was then asked if she has ever thought about having more children and failed to give a definitive answer but explained that Belle was a complete surprise anyway. She said: "Oh, no. I have. I have and I haven't [thought about more kids.] But even we were shocked at Belle because we weren't planning to have another baby. We were definitely planning a break."
"Rex and Rose were only a couple of years apart and Rose was like six months old. But yeah, well, apparently you only need to have sex once and you'll get pregnant." For the latest TV & Showbiz news, sign up to our newsletter.
