Throw in their four ducks and two dogs and it promises to be full of “family madness”.
The series will show Zach, 16, waiting for his GCSE results and Stacey beating Jeremy Clarkson and Martin Lewis to win at the National Television Awards for popular TV show, Sort Your Life Out, where she and her team of experts revamp cluttered homes.
Featuring the family’s day-to-day life at Pickle Cottage in Essex, the series will show how the pair balance family life with work schedules and passion projects - including building a two acre fishing lake. Speaking about the show, Stacey, 35, said: “2024 was the year me and Joe pushed ourselves out of our comfort zones.
“We took on different projects and tried new things. It’s been so amazing and nerve-wracking all at the same time, and we just want to keep doing that in 2025, starting with Stacey And Joe.

Joe and Stacey have been together since 2016 and have been married since 2022. The show, filmed during the summer and autumn of 2024, shows them celebrating their second wedding anniversary and revealing how they fell in love.
Joe, 42, who also has a son, Harry, with ex-fiance Emma Sophocleous, said: “We’ve been doing our best to keep this under wraps but we’re so glad we can finally tell all of you about Stacey And Joe.
“Over the years, we’ve 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.”
