JOE Swash was seen reuniting with his children after three weeks away in a sweet video shared by wife Stacey Solomon.
Actor Joe, 40, had been in South Africa filming the I’m a Celebrity All Stars spin-off show.
And it was obvious the family were happy to have him back, with Loose Woman panellist Stacey, 32, posting a clip of him with their son Rex, three, and daughter Rose, who turns one next month.
Stacey, who is also mum to Zach, 14, and Leighton, 10, from previous relationships, shared an adorable snap of her, Joe, Rex and Rose beaming the camera.
She captioned it: “ Daddy’s Home And mum’s arms have never felt so free .
“I know it’s only been a few weeks but oh my goodness we missed you Joe Joe!

“Time to catch up on some much needed wees alone & cuddles with my stubbley spider legs .
“Happy Wednesday everyone P.S I can’t get over how much Rex looks like Joe in this picture is it just me? or are they actual twins? .”
Earlier this week Stacey was left frustrated when Joe’s flight home from South Africa was delayed.
“Fuming! Joe’s flight home has been cancelled. Can’t believe I’ve just shaved my legs. What a waster,” she said.
“Might have to wear a skirt on the school run tomorrow, just so I someone can appreciate the effort.”
The Sun revealed that former EastEnders star Joe was off filming the new spin-off series.
Joe won the 2008 series and hosted the ITV2 sister show for ten years from 2009.
He joined the likes of Myleene Klass, Jordan Banjo and Paul Burrell in Kruger National Park for the pre-recorded series which will air next year.
A source said: “Joe was always on the producers’ hit list as he was such an iconic winner. But they had to iron out the timings and came to a conclusion that worked.
“He has flown out there and can’t wait to give a good account of himself for a second time on the show.”
