Stacey Solomon appears to have hidden a few tributes to her and her husband Joe Swash's life in her latest incredible display at their family home. The Loose Women star has become known for her extravagant door displays which change with the seasons and key events throughout the year.
And over the weekend, it was finally time for Stacey and her young family to unveil their autumn 2022 design - and its gorgeous! Taking to Instagram with a string of pictures, the first show Stacey, 33, with Joe, 40, alongside their children Zachary, Leighton, Rex and Rose.
The family all grinned for the camera as they took up a place around the decorated doorway - which featured dozens of mixed-size pumpkins, with autumnal leaves and flowers taking up space in between with the addition of some spooky skeletons to add some Halloween spirit.
Sharing the selection of snaps on Instagram, Stacey told her 5.4m followers: "Halloween At Pickle Cottage. Our favourite family tradition… There’s so many of us now you can’t even see the door. Rose’s face in the last picture is life. Our first Autumn door as husband & wife."
But it was also a bittersweet moment as Stacey remembered her late pet, little dog Theo, who died on Boxing Day last year. "And our first autumn without Theo. To the moon and back Fifi," the mum-of-four sweetly typed. She then continued: "Honestly the front door tradition is and forever will be my favourite This year the big boys wanted a more spooky theme so we got Phill & Grant (the skeletons) involved. Not only are they amazing childcare but they double up as a great front door display too."
Stacey also revealed that part of this year's installation is from her wedding to Joe earlier this year. "The leaves at the top are from our wedding, they’re our eucalyptus stems that our beautiful friend @emlouflowers painted orange and made into a tree which makes me so happy that we kept some wedding door in their too," she explained before adding: "Happy Autumn everyone."
The compliments for the display soon came flooding in with Stacey’s bestie Mrs Hinch writing in the comments section: "Wow wow and wow, Autumn door QUEEN! beautiful darling as always, love you all."
But as well as a hint to her and Joe's special wedding day, fans couldn't help but joke about the names she has given to her larger skeletons, with many realising its a nod to EastEnders' Mitchell brothers - and Joe was once on the BBC One soap playing Mickey Millier from 2003 to 2011. @tony.mattox.3 joked: "@staceysolomon I can see Phil and Grant Mitchell and Wellard the dog but where’s Sharon?"
Others, however, were simply in awe of the whole displaye. @homeorganised_at_no10 said: "I just love your front door traditions will forever make me smile @staceysolomon x Theo is looking over you all." @ms_holly_wood_lifestyle posted: "Love it @staceysolomon !! I’m in awe of you guys." @thedarkehouse added: "Beautiful as always!! Front door goals!!!"
Some also didn't even spot Stacey's elder children, from previous relationships, in the images after she joked about running out of space to fit the whole brood in. @a_sprinkle_of_jo wrote: "Love it so much! Legit didn’t see Zach and Leighton for hot second! Totally camouflaged!" @number13_with_a_view laughed: "Omg I didn't even see the 2 older boys! They blend in! Looks absolutely amazing btw!!"
