Stacey Solomon has fans in tears with sweet happy birthday post to son Zachary

Stacey Solomon has left fans with tears in their eyes after sharing an emotional video for her son Zachary's birthday.

The BBC Sort Your Life Out star was faced with the troublesome task of trying to secure Prime energy drinks for a special gift for her eldest son. Stacey, 33, was thrilled to get her hands on a bottle and later penned: "If you need me I'll be crying looking through all of our home videos of my baby who's now taller than me and growing a beard."

The Loose Women panellist later took to Instagram to share an emotional video of her and her son Zachary, which included throwbacks to her X Factor audition and I'm A Celebrity win. She penned the sweet post: "Look How Far We’ve Come My Baby. 15 Wonderful Years Of You Zachy."

She added: "Thank you for everything Zach. You are all our rock. I cannot even believe how quickly it’s gone and what a kind caring young man you’ve become. I’m so proud of you. To the moon and back always my darling."

The video started with Stacey's audition on the ITV singing competition, where she spoke about her bond with then one-year-old Zachary. She said: "He means everything to me. He's my baby."

In the emotional posts, Stacey attached clips of Zachary playing with his younger siblings - Leighton, Rex, Rose and Belle - as well as his step-dad former EastEnders actor Joe Swash.

Stacey's friends and fans took to the comments of the sweet video, and wished Zachary a happy birthday. Mrs Hinch, whose real name is Sophie Hinchcliffe, penned: "Im gone and incredible beautiful boy inside and out. Your first baby always xxxx happy birthday Zachy."

YouTuber Zoella wrote: "Well this made me cryyyy!! So so lovely." Kate Ferdinand added: "How special, had me in tears."

Vanessa Feltz commented: "Fabulous family."

Fans soon flooded the comments on the emotional video, and said Stacey had them in tears with her beautiful tribute. One wrote: "This is possibly one of the most moving reels like what a climb what a road together oh this is beautiful so very beautiful happy birthday Zach x x x"

"The love you have for your kids is so beautiful! I aim to be a mother like you when I have children," another penned. A third wrote: "Wow got me emotional! We have all watched him grow up with you."

A fourth added: "This is the sweetest ever stop!!! Happy birthday Zachary! Such a wonderful big brother," while someone else echoed: "Oh my god Stacey this should have had a bloody warning, you've got us all sobbing over here."

This comes after Stacey previously admitted she felt 'judged' for being a teen mum at 17-years-old as she reflected on her family on Mother's Day. She explained how the "judgements" and "comments" she received when she was a teenage mum were all incorrect and that she has "never felt so proud".

Stacey wrote: "I’ve been a mum since I was 17 years old. I barely remember life before becoming mum. I do remember all of the looks I’d get & all of the things that people would say when they saw a 'child raising a child'. I can’t believe I am now a mummy of 5. And all I can say is, not one of those judgments or opinions back then were true.

"No matter how real they felt I look at each of them now and I have never felt so proud. They are the kindest most amazing people and I was a part of that Zachy, Leight, Rex, Rose, Belle. You are all my biggest blessings. My greatest achievements."
