After quietly sharing joyful family news this Christmas, the couple are opening their doors once again, inviting cameras back into Pickle Cottage for a brand-new documentary series that promises to be their most honest yet. With five children, two dogs, and even a flock of beloved pet ducks, Stacey and Joe say they’re ready to let fans see the real story behind the festive smiles — the chaos, the laughter, the late nights… and the love they’re working hard to protect.
Joe agrees, laughing that their idea of date night these days often involves folding laundry together after the kids are asleep. But he insists those quiet moments matter just as much as grand gestures.
“We’re trying to bring back the little things,” he says. “A cup of tea together before the madness starts, a hug in the kitchen, reminding each other why we fell in love in the first place.”

The couple say the new documentary isn’t just about their household — it’s about connection. By opening up their world, they hope to draw their family closer to viewers who see a little of themselves in the bedtime battles, the noisy breakfasts and the moments of calm that come when the house finally falls quiet.
As Stacey puts it: “If people watch and feel less alone in their own crazy family lives, then it’s all worth it.”
This Christmas may have begun with a simple announcement, but for Stacey and Joe, it marks the start of a new chapter — one built on honesty, romance, and the beautiful, unpredictable magic of family life.
