STACEY Solomon’s fans flooded Joe Swash with panicked messages after she disappeared from Instagram.
Stacey, 31, has been missing from the platform where she promotes crafts and shares glimpses of her family life every day.
And Joe said her absence from Instagram led her followers to contact him, as he updated them on Stacey with a photo of her snoozing with their baby Rex.
The 38-year-old said: “I just sat here and had a look at my inbox for the first time ever and there’s about a thousand million messages asking about this one! So here she is! Safe and sound and catching flies!”
The popular presenter – who boasts 3.8million Instagram followers – has been forced to send her phone for repair and could be without it until Saturday.
Stacey has been known to quit Instagram in the past when she’s been hounded by trolls or needs a break from work, but Stacey explained this time it was because her phone needed some urgent TLC.
Announcing her break from sharing hilarious videos and sweet snaps to fans, Stacey said: “I’m off to work and I’m handing my phone in for repair.
“I’ve been putting it off for AGES because I hate being without my phone and without guys.
“It may not be back until Saturday so if I don’t get to come on here until then I just wanted to say…”
Joe spoke to The Sun this week about life in lockdown with Stacey and admitted the couple struggled and had “ups and downs” but it made them “stronger than ever”.
In an exclusive interview with The Sun he said: “At the beginning of lockdown, it was a slight learning process about how we are going to do this.
“We had our moments, we had our ups and downs, but we found our groove and we work well as a team.
“We’ve got kids so we made it work. I think we’re definitely stronger on the other side of it thankfully.”
Family is everything to Joe, who sadly lost his dad Ricky from an undiagnosed heart condition when he was just 11 years old.
He’s now a father to 13-year-old Harry from a previous relationship and shares toddler Rex with Stacey – and her two boys Leighton and Zachary in their happily blended family.
And by this time next year there could be another Solomon-Swash baby on the way as Joe reveals they’re going to try for another.
