Joe Swash has shared a rare picture of his 11-year-old son with girlfriend Stacey Solomon’s two eldest boys a week after being trolled for leaving the trio out of a snap.
The former EastEnders star and the three young boys are all smiling into camera after enjoying a day out together at a water park in Essex, while Stacey stayed at home with their newborn son Rex.
One of his followers replied: “Lovely to see you four together and enjoying each other’s company great picture.”
Joe shares 11-year-old Harry with ex Emma Sophocleous, while Stacey had son Zachary when she was 17 with childhood sweetheart Dean Cox.
Four years later the I’m A Celebrity winner welcomed Leighton with ex-fiance Aaron Barnham.
Last weekend, Joe found himself being trolled for posting a sweet black and white picture of Harry cradling his newborn brother.

The TV star, 37, captioned the photo: “In this picture is my whole world. My two boys.
Soon after Joe posted the snap, some of his followers started to criticise him for failing to mention Stacey and her two boys in the post.
“What about Stacey and her children, aren’t you meant to be family?” one wrote.

A second shared: “That’s lovely but what about Stacey’s boys?” while a third simply asked: “What about Stacey?”
However, plenty of others rushed to the TV star’s defence, with another writing: “These are his biological sons, I’m sure he loves Stacey’s boys as much as his own… Give the bloke a rest.”
“Lots of judgy people here,” a second began. “Joe is allowed to announce that his boys are his world, just like Stacey did on her post. He still loves his stepsons like they are his own and Stacey he will love unconditionally.”
Stacey and Joe welcomed Rex Toby Francis into the world on May 23.
