Stacey Solomon was emotional as she shared a montage of precious video clips from her family Abu Dhabi family holiday. The 33-year-old Loose Women panellist was crying as she discovered that her dad David had been capturing candid moments from her treasured time with her five children.
The TV favourite explained that she was in tears to realise that this means her dad still takes videos of his daughter the way she does of her own children. "I’m crying," she told her Instagram followers.
"So turns out my dad still takes videos of me the way I do of my babies. I hardly ever get videos of me like this. It’s usually pictures I force Joe to take so they know I was actually there.

"My camera roll mostly looks like I just popped in with a selfie or in the mirror video… I can’t tell you how emotional I feel right now. One day in years to come please g-d the pickles will have these to watch & remember the special times we had."
Stacey, who was recently hailed inspirational over a recent post from the trip as she posed in a bikini with two-month-old daughter Belle saying "I'm grateful for my body", wrote about the videos of herself being a mum: " I don’t care about the angles, my hair, my face, my body or the fact I’m mostly sun creaming everyone half the time I’m just so grateful to have these… forever and always Dad…"
Her friend Sophie Hinchliffe praised: "Absolutely Everything." And Francesca Banjo said: "Dads are the best what precious memories."
emshelx gasped: "Oh I love these candid videos memories forever!" honestmum said: "So cute of your Daddy. So many beautiful memories you have forever x" And adamgreensmith applauded: "We all need a Stacey’s Dad in our life x"
Stacey, her husband Joe Swash, 41, and her brood were joined by her dad on the holiday. Yesterday (Saturday April 8) she posted an adorable snap from her holiday collection of her eldest child Zachary, 15, cradling her youngest Belle, who was born in February, in a hammock on the beach.
She explained to her Instagram followers why the picture was so poignant. "My biggest and littlest," she typed. "One day not too far away Zachy will probably go on holisay with his mates instead of us and that makes my heart ache." She added about her first child: "He's so helpful and kind and such joy to be around. To the moon and back Zachy."
