STACEY Solomon and Joe Swash have transformed their home into a magical Christmas grotto with three trees, dozens of presents and a hot chocolate station.

Stacey, 31, started decorating her Essex pad earlier this month to put a smile on her three son’s faces considering what an awful year we’ve all had.

But Loose Women presenter Stacey, 32, and Dancing On Ice winner Joe, 38, have ramped up the festivities since Tier 4 restrictions were announced on Saturday evening.

Today, the loved-up couple prepared a sweet feast for ther brood that included a chocolate station complete with candy canes, marshmallows and sprinkles.

Not only that, Stacey decorated fairy cakes using ice cream cones to transform the small cakes into Christmas Norms.

Stacey managed to gather the boys, baby Rex, Leighton and Zachary for a group photo.

The trip sported matching red jumpers, also seen on Stacey and Joe in videos on Instagram.

Later, Stacey told fans: “The boys are back on their PlayStations, shock horror, but they did make some Norm cupcakes.

“Now I’m going to lay the Christmas table. I know nobody is coming for Christmas dinner but I still love laying it even if it’s just for us.”

On Sunday Stacey dressed two Christmas trees and put them in her bedroom.

When Joe spotted them, he shouted: “What the hell Stace? What is this doing in the room for? Why have we got all these trees in here?!”

At the start of December Stacey opened up about the “heartache” of the year as she unveiled a stunning Christmas makeover at her home.

 

She said: “So I just wanted to say… It’s been really awful for so many over the past months and is still so hard for lots… I’m so sorry for all those who have struggled and for all of the heartache and loss of this year.

“I’m so thankful for you all. Every single message, bit of kindness, the laughs and the tears.

“You made this year such a special one for us so far, and we couldn’t have done some days without you .

“Love you to the moon and back. from Me, Joe and ALL of our boys .”
