Stacey Solomon was left fuming after Joe Swash let slip one of the major details of their wedding live on Loose Women.
The couple were discussing their upcoming ceremony while hosting a special edition of the ITV daytime show alongside Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes when Joe blurted out the date he and Stacey are getting married.
The awkward blunder came when the former EastEnders actor asked his wife-to-be if they were allowed to reveal when they’re tying the knot.
“You wouldn't know the date even if you were allowed to say,” Stacey told him.
Clearly wanting to prove a point, Joe clapped back, “Yes, the date is going to be the last Sunday in July,” leaving a gobsmacked Stacey in shock.
She fumed, “Oh my God, why did I bring you here?" as she shook her head and sarcastically added, “Fantastic. Good God!"
