She said: "Joe, I know it’s not easy & blended families are complicated to say the least… but you make it all seem effortless. You’re the most incredible husband, father and father figure to ALL of our children and I feel every emotion raising our family with you.

"Everyone else comes first and nothing is ever too much especially grateful for how much time you’ve taken off recently to take over at home while I’m here there and everywhere. As hard as it is leaving some days knowing you’re there giving them every bit of love they could ever need makes it easier. To the moon and back Joe."

Stacey shared snaps with her own dad, David, as she also issued a heartfelt tribute to him. She said: "Dad not a day goes by that I don’t need you and you’re always there. No matter what. What a privilege it is to have you in our lives."

Fans flooded the comments to issue messages of support after the update.

Gemma said: "Ah lovely photo hope you all had a lovely day "

Nikki added: "You are a gorgeous family thank you for all your posts you truly are amazing "

Babita commented: "Gorgeous photo, hope you all had a fab Fathers Day."
