The former 'X Factor' singer began dating the 34-year-old hunk late last year and has admitted their first lip-locking session didn't go completely according to plan.

Speaking on 'Loose Women' on Wednesday (06.07.16) the 26-year-old beauty said: "My first kiss with Joe was probably my most awkward kiss of all time in my whole entire life.

"He came to say goodbye to me as I was leaving to go home and shut the door, but I am very prude and not very forward...

"Then before the door could shut [stuck his foot in the door]. He pushed it open and walked straight up to me and kissed me and I just froze. I was so shocked that he kissed me and that he liked me and then he went."

But, rather than making up for the embarrassing incident, Stacey made it worse by hopping on a plane for 24 hours from Australia, leaving Joe to think she wasn't interested.

Meanwhile, despite the rocky start, the couple are getting on really well now and are thoroughly enjoying their romance.

She gushed "It's going really, really well. I feel really lucky."

And it seems their relationship is going from strength-to-strength as Stacey recently admitted she'd love to have children with the former 'EastEnders' star.

She said: "I'd really, really, really love more children."

However, the singer feels her decision to have a little one with the Joe will be frowned upon because she already has two children; sons Zachary, eight, and Leighton, four, from two previous relationships.

She explained at the time: "I want more children but society makes me feel as though, I have two children from two previous relationships, I can't have another child with someone else because of what people will think ... Now that my life is so open, I can imagine the comments."

Joe also has eight-year-old son Harry from his relationship with his ex-fiancée Emma Sophocleous.
