STACEY Solomon has spoken out about the future of her family reality show after it was revealed she had “regrets” over filming it.
The star, 35, broke her silence just minutes before the finale episode of Stacey & Joe aired on BBC One.
Stacey told her fans she was about to tune in to the final instalment after putting hers and husband Joe Swash‘s youngest children, daughters Belle and Rose, to bed.
The mum-of-five also thanked viewers for their “amazing feedback” on the six-part fly-on-the-wall series.
In a video on Instagram, Stacey said: “I’m just sitting down, the girls have gone to bed and I’m getting ready to watch our show.
“I’ve just realised it’s the last episode tonight it’s gone so quickly I feel like it was only yesterday we were pooing ourselves about it coming out on the telly and now it’s at the end.

“But I just wanted to come on here quickly and say your messages and all of the things I get tagged in and all the comments and everything about the show have been so lovely. The feedback has been really amazing.”
She added: “I’ve enjoyed watching it back and then hearing from you and getting your feedback and stuff so I just wanted to say thank you, thanks for watching it.
“I’m so glad you enjoyed it that’s all we ever wanted was to make people smile and enjoy watching it so thank you. Enjoy the last episode!”
Despite Stacey’s comments, the star has found herself facing a backlash after putting herself and her family on the small screen.
The series saw her balancing a booming career, including a new perfume range, while juggling parenthood with hers and Joe’s kids Rex, five, Rose, three, and Belle, two, plus her sons Zachary, 17, and Leighton, 12, from previous relationships.
But while showing the positives, it has also highlighted the spats Stacey has with Joe.
Last November, the couple were pictured during a tense tow in the street and it later emerged the fallout was sparked while filming Stacey & Joe.
The couple had just shot scenes in a counselling session and Stacey was left in tears.
She had booked the couples therapy session to support Joe, 43, following his ADHD diagnosis.
Joe had told the counsellor: “All I’m hearing is that I’m this huge problem in Stacey’s perfect life.
“I don’t hear no positive stuff about me.”
Viewers also watched Stacey grow increasingly irritated by Joe’s inability to carry out basic household tasks.
In one episode, he threw bleach into the washing machine to whiten his T-shirts.
Joe also raised eyebrows when he was shown returning home from a fishing trip five hours late, leaving Stacey to juggle their kids and an important work meeting.
Stacey & Joe has also been panned for sailing close to the wind on BBC advertising rules after the couple openly promoted everything from haircare ranges to their Instagram accounts on the show.
This week, a source close to the couple told The Sun: “Stacey is regretting signing up to do the show.
“She’s not used to the backlash they are getting as everything she touches normally turns to gold.”
Despite this, The Sun previously confirmed Stacey & Joe will be returning to the BBC for a second series.
On Tuesday night, fans were also treated to a “coming soon” teaser at the end of the episode.
In already recorded footage, Stacey and Joe were shown on a romantic country mini break, along with a trip to a theme park with their kids and on a big family skiing holiday.
The BBC is yet to confirm when the second series of Stacey & Joe will air.
