Joe Swash says ‘I’m done’ as Stacey Solomon’s festive prank goes hilariously wrong

Joe Swash has declared that he is “done” with Stacey Solomon’s festive pranks, after the Loose Women star posted a mischievous Christmas video to her Instagram.

The 34-year-old Sort Your Life Out star revealed that her family are taking part in Elf on the Shelf this year.

The popular Christmas tradition sees parents and kids adopt a ‘scout elf’ magically sent by Santa to keep an eye on the children’s behaviour and report back to the North Pole each night.

Every morning the elf then returns to a different spot in the house, ensuring kids make the ‘good list.’ The mum-of-five has shared a video with her 5.8 million social media followers, where their red-headed family elf named ‘Joe’ could be seen sneakily drawing a moustache on the ‘real’ Joe Swash as he took a nap on the sofa.


The couple's little one, Rex, giggled in delight as Joe woke up to discover Stacey had used the elf as a way to cover him in marker.

The EastEnders star then took to his own social media to address his 1.9 million followers about the prank. In a clip, the former EastEnders actor began: “The elf has done me up like an absolute kipper. “I can’t get this stuff off,” he said.

While attempting to rub the marker moustache off, Joe continued: “It is completely stuck in my beard. The worst thing was I’ve just had to go and do the school run. And the teacher looked at me and didn’t say anything.”

The ex-"I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!" star added that the teacher knew right away that he’d been a victim of the Elf on the Shelf trend.


He added “What am I going to do?” Over the top of the video, he wrote: “Hope you see this @StaceySolomon. I’m done with this elf sh**.”

Joe later announced that he would be getting some “payback” on his other half as he joked about putting the felt elf in a blender. In overlay text, he wrote: “What do you think?? too much?”

Stacey Solomon took to Instagram on Saturday to share an adorable video of herself and her family buying a huge Christmas tree.

The mummy influencer shares Rex, three, Rose, one, and baby Belle, nine months, with Joe. She also has sons Zachary, 14, and Leighton, 11, from previous relationships. In her new video, the whole family went to a Christmas tree farm together to pick out one for their home, Pickle Cottage.


They all wrapped up for the day out and were seen walking through a massive array of Christmas trees.

When Stacey found the perfect tree, Joe could be heard in the background saying: "Stace, look at the size of it! It's about 12ft high." She captioned her post: "Come with us to get our Christmas tree. Why are we the actual Griswolds though?

"This is my first 'Come With Me' so let me know if you like it and I'll post more, if not I'll delete it and stick to the crafts. Happy Saturday, everyone."
