Joe is also the father of son Harry, 15, who he shares with his ex-fiancée Emma Sophocleous.

Elsewhere on the show, she discussed how she keeps her own house tidy while helping other families on her TV series Sort Your Life Out.

Stacey revealed: ‘I have very tidy corners. I can’t do it all at once. It’s impossible unless you have a week off. I do one closet at a time.

‘my eldest [child] is happy to live in a pigsty. My medium is very controlled and cannot function if things are not in the right place. The smallest ones I have to sing the housekeeping song.

Not everyone wants to be nice and tidy, that’s how I function, people ask how I keep things organized – I couldn’t have them if I wasn’t organized.

‘Joe is the opposite, he lives a mess he understands. He really goes out of his way to bless you. He is the most amazing father and husband.’
