Stacey Solomon has revealed interesting insights into life at Pickle Cottage while discussing her popular BBC show, Sort Your Life Out, with professional organizer Dilly Carter. In the show, Stacey assists homeowners in decluttering their belongings alongside Dilly and their team.

During a conversation on their Sort Your Life Out Unpacked podcast, Stacey shared details about family life at her Essex residence with her husband, Joe Swash, their three children – Rex, Rose, and Belle, along with her two older sons – Zachary and Leighton. The discussion revolved around the different organizational styles within the household, with Stacey and Leighton being the more organized members compared to Joe and Zachary, who are more relaxed about tidiness.

Stacey mentioned that Joe appreciates a bit of chaos, in contrast to her preference for organization. She noted that their different approaches stem from their unique ways of thinking and navigating life. When asked if there were items she should discard, Stacey humorously admitted to being a secret hoarder, a sentiment echoed by Dilly, who has encouraged her to part with certain possessions in the past.

The couple acquired their £1.3 million Essex home in 2021 before their wedding the following year. Reflecting on their emotional connection to the property, Stacey recounted moments of overwhelming gratitude upon moving in, expressing astonishment at living in a house like Pickle Cottage, which she never envisioned while growing up in Dagenham and Joe in Islington.

Stacey expressed pride in every aspect of their home, highlighting their journey from humble beginnings to owning a property that exceeded their childhood dreams. She emphasized their appreciation for Pickle Cottage and the surreal feeling of living in such a remarkable house.
