Stacey Solomon's reported plans to start a relationship podcast might not sit well with husband, Joe Swash, according to an insider.

Joe, 42, is reportedly "sceptical" about Stacey's plans to launch a podcast offering advice on family and love life, similar to Abbey Clancy and Peter Crouch's The Therapy Crouch.

An insider told Heat that Stacey, 34, wants to spend more time at home and with Joe, but there are worries that the project might demand too much from him by requiring the couple to share "intimate details".

The source revealed: "Stacey is keen to do more projects from home and spend time with Joe, so she's considering teaming up with him to do a relationship podcast similar to Abbey and Pete's but not as racy."

They added: "She wants it to be more relatable with tips for other couples on how to juggle your family and romantic life. But some people are worried it'll put too much pressure on them and open them up to scrutiny," reports the Express.

The insider later shared: "Things are so good with Joe at the moment; they're worried something like this could upset the balance.

"Joe is so easy-going and always supports Stacey whatever she does - but revealing intimate details about their marriage could be asking too much of him."

It's been reported that Stacey has a "lot of big ideas" but doesn't necessarily consider "what could go wrong", and Joe is uncertain whether the podcast would "pan out".

The source hinted that the new podcast could be "another time-consuming project" for the busy mum-of-five, sparking rumours about whether Stacey really needs more on her already full "plate".

Friends of the couple are suggesting they should "hold something back" from the public eye, especially since Stacey is known for sharing so much of her life with her fans.

While Joe seems happy to "let Stacey do whatever she wants", there's chatter among their circle that this move might make it seem like she's the one making all the decisions.

Nonetheless, Stacey is excited about the idea of a podcast, believing her followers would love to hear more from Joe, whose "cheeky persona" she adores, and she's convinced they'd relish the couple discussing "relatable" subjects.
