Stacey broke down in tears as she discussed the happy news with her fellow Loose Women panelists on Friday with Joe firmly by her side.
"Im really chuffed," Joe told them. "It’s just nice to have the secret out, we’re so excited… so now it’s nice that we can breathe a little bit and let people know."
Stacey added, "Joe doesn’t often get emotional, so there’s something nice about everything he says… I know he’s about to cry!
“I don’t know what to say. I’m almost coming to terms with it, it’s such a massive thing and I can’t believe it’s happening to us,” she said, before she began to cry.
Stacey and Joe have been dating since 2016, and they took their relationship to the next level when they moved in together just before Christmas.
