Stacey Solomon stuns fans as she reveals HUGE 12ft Christmas tree which she calls ‘Leaning Tower of Pisa’
STACEY Solomon stunned fans as she revealed her huge 12ft Christmas tree – which she dubbed the ‘Leaning Tower of Pisa’.
Presenter Stacey, 34, brought her Instagram followers along as she went to a local farm with her blended family.
She even hilariously tied up her husband Joe Swash, 41, and one of her children in netting meant for the trees.
Former EastEnders actor Joe fumed, “Babe, look at the size of it. Stace, it’s about 12 foot high!” but Stacey insisted it was the one she wanted.
When they got their latest purchase home, though, the clan realised it was too tall for Pickle Cottage’s ceilings, joking it was “on the wonk”.
The Loose Women panellist wrote in her caption, “Come With Us to get our Christmas Tree. Why are we the actual Griswolds though?
“This is first “come with Me” so let me know if you like it & I’ll post more if not I’ll delete it & stick to the crafts. Happy Saturday Everyone…”
In a previous post, Stacey reflected on how much her life has changed in the last five years as she shared a festive snap of her front door.
Stacey posed alongside her husband Joe and her kids Zachary, 15, Leighton, 10, Rex, four, 23-month-old Rose and six-month-old Belle from their £1.2m Essex mansion.
She captioned the post: “Hello December. Had to take our annual door photo. Then I went down a rabbit hole looking at our old Christmas door photos.
The Bake Off host then listed some of her biggest milestones, from getting engaged in 2020 to celebrating her first Christmas as a wife last year.
She added: “They’ve all changed so much. Honestly I’m so glad every year we do this.
“Because so much changes in a year the last 5 years have changed for us dramatically It’s been the most magical whirlwind.”
Many fans were thrilled to see how far Stacey has come in the last few years.
One wrote: “What a throwback! Lovey to see all these photos! And the family growing bigger each year, beautiful memories.”
Another said: “I’ve no idea why but this made me feel emotional – you adorable bunch.”
This year, Stacey has gone for a traditional theme and decorated Pickle Cottage in reds, golds and greens.
Standing guard in front of the door are her two giant Nutcrackers, which she made herself with plastic tubing and spray paint.
Stacey had also placed her ‘Christmas bells’ and massive baubles outside, which she whipped up from her children’s old space hoppers.
The rest of her decorations are made up from lashings of fir garlands, red baubles and festive foliage.
Her first two Christmas door photographs were taken outside Joe and Stacey’s old house when Rex was just a baby.
The coupled sold that humble property in 2021 and bought Pickle Cottage for a cool £1.2million.
Stacey and Joe have been busy renovating their ‘forever home’ for the past two years, while expanding their family at the same time.
