Joe Swash is crazy about his kids- but he’s respecting their privacy as they get older.
Now that Harry Swash is in his teens, he’s not so keen on appearing in front of the cameras these days. He’s still best pals with his dad though!
Here’s everything you need to know about the adorable family.
Harry Swash
Harry Swash is now 14 years old. And last year, dad Joe gave us a glimpse at just how grown-up his son has become.
In a cute family snap, Joe wrote the caption:
“I can’t believe how big my little boy’s got!
But he’s grown into such a handsome young man.”
The pic soon sparked a huge response from fans with a number noting the similarities between father and son.
“He has your smile Joe!” one told the star, with a second echoing: “Looks so much like you.”

Joe shares Harry with his ex-girlfriend Emma Sophocleous. The pair split shortly after Harry was born.
Speaking on Dave Berry’s podcast in 2020, Joe admitted:
“With my first child, Harry, there was a period where mine and Harry’s mum’s relationship affected my relationship with him.
I didn’t get to see him for a period of time, so I missed out on quite a lot. Now, me and my son Hal, we spend all the time together.
He’s, like, my shadow. I love him, but there was a period where I just couldn’t see this happening in the future. So, I did miss out quite a lot of Hal growing up, as a baby.”
Family Life
Since Joe has moved on with partner Stacey Solomon, his family unit has gone from strength to strength.
Joe plays stepdad to Stacey’s two boys from a previous relationship; Zach and Leighton.
The couple had their first child together in 2019- a son called Rex.
They also welcomed their daughter Rose at the end of 2021.

Kyle Christie: Who is the Geordie Shore star’s partner?
While Joe and Stacey were hoping to be married by now, the couple decided to postpone after the Loose Women star ended up pregnant with Rose.
This was because the couple didn’t want their “little pickle” Rose to be absent from their wedding photos!
Joe and Stacey originally met on I’m a Celeb back in 2010, but they didn’t actually announce that they were together until 2016.
It turned out that the couple were trying to keep things under wraps while they got to know each other’s children.
Everything went well for the family, and after three years of dating, Joe, Stacey and their kids all moved into a beautiful luxury mansion in Essex.
Joe Swash eventually proposed to his long-term girlfriend on Christmas Eve in 2020, in the woods near their idyllic family home. Joe and Stacey often refer to their luxury pad as “Pickle Cottage”, and have spoken about their love for the nature and wildlife on their doorstep!
“It’s my happy place. I lose myself and breathe in every second of it because to me it’s just what life is about.”
Famous Dad
Joe Swash shot to fame when he landed the role of Mickey Miller in EastEnders in 2003, who was initially only a recurring character. But after he received such a positive reception from viewers, producers decided to give him much more screen time.

After leaving EastEnders in 2008, Joe Swash began to hit the celeb TV circuit. He went on to become King of the Jungle in I’m A Celeb, and also managed to win Dancing on Ice shortly afterwards.
He’s also made appearances on everything from Would I Lie to You? to Tipping Point.
