Stacey Solomon 'cries' over her dad and fiancé Joe Swash on Father's Day

Stacey Solomon admitted to being emotional as she marked Father's Day on Sunday. The Loose Women star took to Instagram as she celebrated her own dad, David, and her fiancé Joe Swash with whom she shares her two younger children, two-year-old Rex, and eight-month-old Rose.

Before the big day itself, Stacey helped Joe's son Harry, who he shares from a previous relationship, prepare a homemade gift for his dad. The pair worked on making a table out of firewood, which 15-year-old Harry had set aside for the special gift. Taking to her Instagram story, the 32-year-old showed the teen sanding down the wood, drilling holes for the table legs and painting the top.

She told fans: "So, me and Harry have spent the evening working on a special Father's Day present for Joe. Joe saved this wood slice from the fire wood because he loved it so much. So Harry wanted to make him a little side table." Stacey then showed off the result of his work and said she would add a finishing touch to it.

She wrote: "It's amazing Harry, dad is going to love it. I am going to stay up until it's dry and put some wood seal on it for him." She cheekily added that she hid Joe from their stories - so the thoughtful present should come as a surprise to him today."

Stacey has since shared a heart-melting video of Joe receiving his gift alongside a proud Harry, who Joe shares with ex-fiancée Emma Sophocleous. The former EastEnders actor could be seen in the video, posted to Stacey's millions of Instagram followers, pulling a cloth to unveil the handmade wooden table, resulting in a massive smile sweeping across his face.

He then took a closer look and placed the table on the floor before embracing his eldest child. "@realjoeswashy loved his table," she wrote alongside the video which she set to emotional Beyonce tack, 'Daddy'.

Stacey also shared a photo of Joe and Harry alongside Rex, baby Rose and her dad as they posed for the sweet snap around the table which looked prepped for a big breakfast. "Dad, who we look up to no matter how tall we grow," the mum-of-four wrote across the family image.

She then added: "The way dad loves Joe actually makes me cry," as fans could see her dad smiling looking at his future son-in-law who had grandson Rex on his knee.

Stacey is also mother to Zach, 13, whom she shares with ex-boyfriend Dean Cox. Stacey welcomed Zach when she was 17 years old - just one year before she shot to fame on The X Factor. The Sort Your Life Out presenter also shares ten-year-old son Leighton with ex-fiancé Aaron Barnham, whom she split with in 2014.
