Stacey Solomon has introduced two delightful new additions to her family at Pickle Cottage: a pair of adorable ducklings. The popular TV personality and mother of five shared the exciting news on Instagram, asking her fans for help in naming the new arrivals.
New Ducklings at Pickle Cottage
At 34, Stacey Solomon, known for her role in Sort Your Life Out, already has a bustling household. Alongside her five children and two dogs, she also cares for her husband, Joe Swash. The latest members of her family, two fluffy yellow ducklings, were a gift from an unexpected source: The Apprentice star Luisa Zissman.
In her social media post, Stacey shared a heartwarming video of the ducklings snuggled up with her children, Rex, three, and Rose, two. She captioned the video, “Welcome to Pickle Cottage, Little Ones. We are so excited to love you & we hope you love living here & being a part of our crazy family. We have no idea what to call our new babies yet, so any suggestions are welcome. Honestly wanted to make our garden home to ducklings for so long.”
Luisa Zissman’s Contribution
Stacey credited Luisa Zissman for providing the ducklings, expressing her gratitude by saying, “Thanks for giving us the opportunity to raise your hatchlings.” Luisa, who also appeared in Stacey’s Instagram post, has been sharing her own experiences raising ducks on her social media, documenting the fledglings’ progress as they learn to fly.
Fans’ Name Suggestions
Following the announcement, Stacey’s fans were quick to offer name suggestions for the ducklings. Some of the popular ideas included “Chick” and “Duck” from the TV show Friends, “Pickle and Percy,” and “Donald and Daisy.”
Family Life at Pickle Cottage
Stacey and Joe’s family life is as lively as ever. Along with their five children, including baby Belle, one, the couple has decided against having more kids. Despite Stacey joking about potentially having triplets in a recent Instagram post, she has made it clear they are not planning to expand their family further.
Last year, Stacey discussed the possibility of more children in an interview with The Mirror, saying, “We don’t want any more, we cannot cope with it. We wanted all these kids and we’re so grateful to have them. So we will get romantic… but in 20 years’ time!”
Joe also confirmed their decision during an appearance on The Netmums Podcast, saying, “Before you know it, you’ve got six! This is it, I’m pretty sure that this is it. We can’t go there again which is really sad, we love kids, we love the baby stage, and the toddler stage, and the baby stage goes by really fast, so it is a little bit sad but I think this will be it.”
Conclusion
Stacey Solomon’s family continues to grow in the most unexpected ways. With the recent addition of the two ducklings, her home at Pickle Cottage is filled with even more love and excitement. Fans eagerly await the names Stacey will choose for her newest family members, adding to the joyful chaos of her vibrant household.
