Stacey Solomon calls out Joe Swash after 'uncomfortable' moment with Spice Girl
Stacey Solomon and Joe Swash will give fans even more of an insight into their marriage and family life in their brand new BBC reality show, Stacey and Joe
Stacey Solomon said she had to put a stop to a certain aspect of Joe Swash's behaviour, following an awkward moment with Spice Girls star Emma Bunton.
In a joint chat on the NewlyWeds podcast, the 35-year-old said her husband "kisses his family on the lips", something she's had to adjust to over the years.

"I don't snog them or anything, I'd kiss both of you on the lips," he told hosts Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo, defending his ways.
Stacey went on to say: "He kisses everyone on the lips by the way, we did have to nip it in the bud really early on because we were at Loose Women and Emma Bunton was on as a guest, and he went up to her and planted one on her."
In an attempt to defend himself further, Joe, 43, said he knew the Spice Girl well enough to kiss her, to which his wife replied: "I can just about draw the line at your sisters right, but Emma Bunton is a hard no! You can't snog Emma Bunton!"

"It's not a snog, it's just a slightly uncomfortable peck," he hit back, laughing.
Not having none of it however, Stacey replied: "It's too much."

Previously opening up about Joe's behaviour, the Sort Your Life Out star said she's been reassured that his ways are just friendly, not flirty.
"After that I realised it wasn't any flirting to be worried about, if that makes sense," she previously told her Loose Women co-stars.
Joe and Stacey met following her stint on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! in 2010, which she won.

At the time, her now husband was presenting the programme's spin-off show alongside the late Caroline Flack.
Fast forward the years and the pair are now married and have three children together; Rex, five, Rose, three and two-year-old Belle.

Stacey also has two teenage sons, Zachary and Leighton, from previous relationships, while Joe additionally has a teenage son named Harry.
The couple say their older children are who persuaded them to film their new reality series titled Stacey and Joe.
In the documentary, fans will get a candid insight into the family's chaotic everyday lives at Pickle Cottage, often seen on Stacey's Instagram.

Discussing their new project, Joe said: "Over the years, weâve been asked a lot to do a show like this, but getting the opportunity to work with the BBC and Optomen felt properly exciting.
"There will be the normal madness of a family with lots of kids, plenty of animals and two busy parents. Here we go!â.
Stacey and Joe airs tonight at 8pm on BBC One.
