In the video, the former EastEnders actor held out a ring to Stacey and said ‘Stacey Solomon’ before the overwhelmed presenter asked ‘are you joking me?’.  

As Joe continued his intimate proposal, Stacey modestly hid her face in her coat as she began to well up during the touching moment.

After saying yes, Stacey slipped on the engagement ring and her three children – Rex, one, Zachary, 12, and Leighton, eight – cheer off-camera. 

The loved-up pair met on the set for I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! when the artist was crowned Queen of the Jungle and the former EastEnders star hosted spin-off series Extra Camp in 2010, a year after he took home the title.

The duo confirmed their relationship in January 2016, with the auburn-haired beauty stating at the time: ‘It’s going really well… we’re having fun, spending time together and getting to know each other.’

They announced they were expecting their first child together in February 2019, and welcomed baby Rex three months later.
