STACEY Solomon's new reality show portrays the highs and lows of her marriage with Joe Swash and their family life with five kids.
Viewers have already seen the ex EastEnders actor, 43, break down in a candid chat with his wife, 35, while discussing the challenges he’s faced with ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder).
Stacey previously confessed viewers would see “domestics” between her and Joe.
And this proved to be true, as the pair were seen clashing on screen over parenting issues.
Yet although their wider family will also feature, with Stacey seen clashing with eldest son Zach, 17, after he swore at her in one Stacey and Joe episode, one key figure will be missing.
Stacey's mum Fiona prefers a life out of the limelight, and therefore will not feature with her daughter and grandkids.
The pair's close relationship away from the TV cameras recently came under the spotlight.
Stacey regularly thanks her doting mum for helping with the babysitting and around Pickle Cottage on her social media.
Stacey's two eldest sons Zachary, 16 and Leighton, 12 are from former relationships while she shares trio Rex, five, Rose, three, and Belle, two with BBC star Joe.
While the kids often feature on Stacey's Instagram grid, her proud mum prefers to stay out of the limelight, and has banned her famous daughter from posting her.
Despite this – the pair share a very close relationship, with Fiona present at every single one of Stacey's five births.
Recently, Stacey & Joe show fans were left baffled when one other star "went missing."
MUM'S THE WORD
Joe Swash breaks down in tears during heartbreaking chat with Stacey Solomon on new reality show
When the pair appeared on Loose Women together in a very rare appearance in 2017, they got emotional and shared hugs as they opened up about Stacey's "difficult" teens.
"I got to a stage where I thought, 'What have I done, I must have been a terrible mother'," Fiona said of her daughter's teen pregnancy with eldest son Leighton.
"It wasn't just Stacey, I have another daughter. Both my girls went through teenage years, it really was… tearaways.
"Stacey was the one who always got into trouble and always got caught. She bunked off school and got detention.

The former X Factor star also displayed their relationship when she told fans she was struggling to be apart from her mum during the coronavirus pandemic.
“She's usually here most days helping me with the boys when I'm working," she told her followers at the time.
“I spoke to her earlier and for some reason it made my tummy flip a bit. I couldn't have raised my pickles without her.
"She knows how to make me feel like everything is going to be OK, I miss her cuddles and just her kindness."
Stacey's dad sometimes makes a rare appearance on her social media page.
