Alex went on to say the duo’s win was “more meaningful” after experiencing “all the lows” during their journey together.
Prior to their win, Alex joined Stacey and Joe in a couple’s version of Loose Women.
During the show, Stacey said she isn’t bothered about her boyfriend dancing with Alex.
When quizzed about how she was feeling about the pair dancing together by Ruth Langsford, she said: “I love that Joe is doing something he loves. His dance partner Alex is so sweet.”
“Alex loves Stacey, there’s no problem there,” Joe added.
