Stacey Solomon praised for 'real' bikini snap four months after giving birth

Stacey Solomon has been praised by fans for sharing a 'honest' swim suit snap four months after giving birth.

The mum-of-five, 33, welcomed her daughter Belle in February and enjoyed the glorious weather at the weekend with the tot and her siblings, Rex, three and Rose, one.

Stacey, who was also joined by her husband Joe Swash, stunned in the summery snap in which she sported a cream bikini.

Wearing her blonde hair loose, the Sort Your Life Out star was showered with compliments for posting 'real' photos in a world filled with filters.

One said: ""I love how open about your body you are- a REAL image, from a REAL person. It’s so refreshing and it makes us all feel ‘normal’!! X."

While another gushed: "Stacey you are beautiful inside and out."

When captioning the snaps in which she's seen splashing around in the inviting looking pool, Stacey told fans how grateful she was for everything she had, admitting at times she felt like an 'imposter'.

"Always feel so grateful," she wrote. "I’ll never take for granted how lucky we are. My full on imposter syndrome will always keep me in check [laughing emoji].

"I’m always forcing my friends, family, and just the local village really, over here just incase one day Ashton Kutcher jumps out of a bush and tells us we’ve all been Punk’d and it’s not really our pool [laughing emoji] Happy Sunday Everyone [black heart emoji]."

Stacey's fans told the proud mum she deserved everything she had, with one saying: "You’ve worked hard and deserve everything you have , never feel an imposter xx."

The DIY guru is often candid on Instagram and recently opened up about feeling anxious at 4.30am after getting her period.

Stacey shared: "I woke up so early (4.30am) feeling SO anxious. I came on yesterday & it's my first period in over a year so it's thrown me right out!

"Everyone was sleeping so I decided to try & do things to set me up for work today. Forced myself to gym, made myself lunch, washed my hair & got ready to go..."

The star then said: "To anyone having a low day, you're amazing & everything is temporary, you've got this."

In May, Stacey opened up about feeling lonely after her son Leighton went on a school trip for a week.

Sharing a photo of the teenager getting on a coach, she shared: "Because it's Leighton's last year of primary school, his year has gone away for the week," Stacey penned alongside the snap.

"I'm so excited for him but I already miss him."
