Joe Swash has opened up about his dream wedding to Stacey Solomon, revealing he ‘struggled’ to contain his emotions.
The 40-year-old and Stacey tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at their Essex home, which they have affectionately dubbed Pickle Cottage, in July.
The couple, whose first dance was to a stripped-back version of Whitney Houston’s Your Love Is My Love, met seven years ago and share five children between them.
Reflecting back on his big day on Friday’s Loose Women, the former Eastenders actor nearly choked back as she spoke about saying ‘I do’ to The X Factor star.
Eliminated Strictly star Kaye Adams remarked the team ‘hadn’t seen Joe’ since the wedding and asked him how it went, to which he replied: ‘It was so nice. It was the most beautiful day.’
Linda Robson interjected: ‘He cried all day, with Joe revealing he ‘really struggled with his emotions’ during the gorgeous event.
He added: ‘I didn’t think I would. I always said when people get married, “Why are they crying?” They’ve already said yes.’

Joe continued: ‘I just felt so lucky that day. I was marrying the most amazing woman, we’ve got the most amazing family.
‘I look back and think it’s been a journey and I’m so lucky to be where I am now. I just felt so blessed on the day.’

Joe revealed there were ‘only 80’ guests at the wedding who had all ‘helped us and molded us into the people we are today.’
‘It was just nice. It was such a nice intimate wedding,’ he added.

Stacey had been drip-feeding details of the ceremony on social media, including sharing the emotional video of the big day.
The clip offers a look at the newlywed’s first dance, the moment Joe got teary-eyed when saying ‘I do’, the cutting of their cake and how Stacey bawled as their sons gave best man speeches.
Loose Women airs from 12.30pm on weekdays on ITV.
