Stacey Solomon posts sweet video of her son Rex excitedly screaming as he spots dad Joe Swash on DOI

Stacey Solomon shared an adorable video of her son Rex screaming with excitement as he watched his dad Joe Swash appeared on Dancing On Ice on Sunday.

The Loose Women panellist, 31, watched the premiere of the ITV show’s latest season on the TV at home, supporting her fiancé, 38, as he made a cameo appearance.

But Rex, 20 months, showed he was his dad’s biggest fan as the star – who took home the crown last year – popped up onscreen, screaming: ‘Daddy!’

As actor Joe glided across the ice rink to share details of the £120,000 prize draw with the audience, Stacey asked her son: ‘Who’s there?’

Without hesitation, the adorable toddler smiled broadly as he replied: ‘It’s daddy!’

Hours later, Stacey had the opportunity to dote on her husband-to-be once he returned home, sharing a snap of them posing together before bed. 

The day before, Stacey revealed her heartstrings were pulled as Joe pulled their son Rex around in a sleigh, which he and his late father used when he was a child.

Stacey became emotional over the sweet moment as they all played together in the snow near their Essex home.

‘My heart,’ Stacey captioned the Instagram post of Joe and Rex, before adding: ‘His sleigh is Joe’s childhood sleigh from when he was seven. His dad used to pull him around in it.’ 

Unfortunately Joe’s father, a London cab driver, passed away in hospital when he was 11 due to Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome.

Stacey revealed the trio spent the whole morning in the woods and her son was ‘confused’ by the snow, but nevertheless loved riding in their bright red sledge.

‘He loved it so much we didn’t want to come home,’ Stacey penned on her Instagram Story as she shared a video of her actor beau pulling Rex along.

‘So we stayed until we were soaked and now we are on our way home, excited to get the fire on. Happy Saturday.’

Stacey also joked that her ‘snowball backfired,’ because there wasn’t enough snow to form the mass. 

She was seen sporting a cosy denim jacket with faux fur cuffs and sheepskin boots as she jumped in the sledge with her son.

The mother-of-three plaited her auburn tresses and enhanced her visage with a slick of make-up.

Rex bundled up warm in a red padded jacket, khaki trousers and a cream hat. 

Stacey also co-parents Zachary, 12, with her former partner Dean Cox and Leighton, eight, with her ex-fiancé Aaron Barham. Meanwhile, Joe is also father to Harry, 13, with his ex Emma Sophocleous.

Last week, she hit back at a troll as she was criticised for having three different fathers to her three different boys.

As she took to Instagram to post her usual content, Stacey interrupted her stories to hit back at the message, which read: ‘It must be very sad having three different dads for your boys. Always apart. Oh well, I suppose you’re happy about it.’

The unkind comment was sparked when Stacey revealed that her boys had decided to stay at their dads’ houses to continue their homeschooling, as the UK is in lockdown and most schools remain closed to children. 

Stacey wrote: ‘I’m really missing the big pickles today. They wanted to stay at their dads’ and because they are doing school from home they can…

‘I do get sad when they don’t want to come home but I know how happy it will make their dads and I never want to stop them from having the chance to make memories with their family. But oh my gosh I miss them.

‘It’s lovely for a couple of days, less mess, less noise but they the house just feels so empty and Rex looks for them everywhere’. (sic)

Once Stacey had spotted the critical comment, she said: ‘Woah there Wilma! Its far too early for that kind of judgement and of course I’m happy about it, they’re the best thing to ever happen to me regardless of how they happened to me.’

She then wrote over the top of the video: ‘Never let anyone make you feel like you’re not good enough just because things just happen to work out differently from the “norm”. Keep doing you the best way you know how…

‘Unconditional love from anywhere in different shapes and sizes is all they’ll need.’
