Stacey Solomon backs Joe Swash in savage response over 'unhygienic' toddler lunch
Stacey Solomon fiercely supported husband Joe Swash after the packed lunch he made for their daughter Rose caused some controversy with fans.
Former EastEnders star, Joe, who is married to Loose Women's Stacey, was targeted by internet trolls over a snap he shared of his daughter Rose's packed lunch.
He sparked controversy when he uploaded a picture of a pretty-in-pink lunchbox filled with various goodies, but was heavily criticised by fans in his comments, with some branding it ‘not hygienic’.
The picture showcased a fun assortment of foods neatly organised in different compartments: yogurt tubes, cheese cubes, cucumber and carrot sticks, grapes, ham, and a biscuit all accompanied by his caption: "Rosie's packed lunch for today?”.
At the sight of his unusual food pairing, there was a swift outcry from fans. One chimed in: "Nooo, the biscuit can't be next to the ham." Others swiftly followed in agreement: "What are you doing putting the biscuit on top of cut grapes next to the ham and a soggy biscuit?"
A third advised: "Chop up the ham and put in the space next to the cheese, ya nutter."
However, Stacey has now waded into the conversation, defending their lunchbox choices in Joe's comments section, writing: "Omfg the lunch box police are out in full force today."
Joe, 42 and Stacey, 34, have three children together; four year old son Rex, two-year old Rose, and their youngest, daughter Belle, who was born in February 2023.
Joe is also dad to 16 year old son, Harry, from his previous relationship with ex-fiancée Emma Sophocleous. He is also stepdad to Stacey's elder sons, 15 year old Zachary and 11 year old Leighton, from past relationships.
The family of five might soon become bigger however, as several hints have been dropped about adding another member since baby Belle, one, joined them last year.
Earlier this year while taking part in a Q&A session with her followers, Stacey was asked whether she'd ever consider having a sixth child.
Her response was oozing with maternal love: "I can honestly say, my favourite thing in the world is being a mum. I just get so much joy from watching our little ones grow and getting to be a part of their world. I would love more. Whatever will be will be. But omg I love them (Joe will be off to get a vasectomy when he sees this)."
