The pair met in 2010 when Stacey appeared on I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! and Joe was hosting the spin off show after being crowned King of the Jungle two years earlier.
They immediately became friends, but six years later when Stacey returned as a guest on Extra Camp, Joe decided he wanted to give things a go romantically.
Speaking to The Sun Joe said he invited her up to his hotel room before she returned home – but he said it all went “horribly wrong” from there.
The star explained that when he opened the door to Stacey he kissed her straight away.
But he told the publication: “She didn’t kiss me back. It was totally mortifying.”
Luckily, the awkward start wasn’t enough to put Stacey off as Joe told the publication that the duo continued speaking on the phone and as soon as he returned to the UK he went straight to her house from the airport.
Despite a hectic meeting with all Stacey’s family there at the same time, the pair kickstarted their romance and have been head-over-heels for one another ever since.
Joe and Stacey tied the knot in July this year shortly after welcoming two children together alongside three children from previous relationships.
The pair live together with their family in their home which they have named Pickle Cottage, which fans of Stacey’s will see regularly on her Instagram thanks to her many DIY projects.
The happy couple shared snippets from their big day with their Instagram followers as Stacey declared it was “the most special day”.
She said: “Every second of the day was so special and I can’t wait to share with you so many moments I’m so excited to re-live. Walking down the aisle, our first dance, the speeches our boys made.”
Stacey has shared a number of clips and snaps from their big day on Instagram from family snaps to sweet couple photos.
