Stacey Solomon and Joe Swash enjoy NTAs red carpet

Joe Swash and Stacey Solomon are parents to six children between them, and now the EastEnders actor has shared how he’s ruled out expanding their brood, despite protests from his wife.

EastEnders star Joe described how he has been “fighting a losing battle” to get Stacey on board with his plans, as she can only last “three or four years” before wanting another baby.

The couple are already parents to son Rex, 4, daughter Rose, 23 months, and Belle, but Joe is also dad to son Harry, 16, from a previous relationship, while Stacey shares sons Leighton, 11, and Zachary, 15, with former partners.

“We love our family unit and all our kids. But we’ve got to put a cap in it somewhere. I think six is a good number. I think the snip could be on the cards,” he laughed.

“I’m trying to fight it, but it’s a losing battle – Stacey keeps telling me it’s reversible, and that’s a big hint,” he added to Closer magazine.

Joe and Stacey first began dating in 2015, after meeting in Australia while filming ITV2’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here spin-off show, and after four years together, they welcomed their first child, son Rex.

Since then, they’ve expanded their family with daughter Rose and baby Belle.

Earlier this year, Joe said he and Stacey were “addicted” to having babies, but admitted it was hard finding time for each other when they had so many kids to take care of.

We’re at number six now,” he told OK! back in July.

“The baby bit goes so fast, and then before you know it, they’re toddlers – then you yearn for babies again.”

Joe previously said he would “never say never” to the possibility of more children.

However, the actor also told The Mirror that “it is exhausting” raising so many children.

He added: “Me and Stacey have been tired for so long now that it’s become the norm.”

He went on to give an insight into their parenting and how the couple make sure to alternate their work commitments so one of them is always home with the kids.

“It’s difficult, but we’ve both got to work. It is what it is, but we wouldn’t change it.

“There’s so much love in this house for all these kids. We think we’re really lucky.”

It comes after Stacey recently revealed she was in the “non-romantic” phase of her relationship with Joe.
