Stacey Solomon has reflected on the struggles of solo parenting while husband Joe Swash works away for a few days. The Loose Women panellist welcomed her second daughter into the world just three-and-a-half weeks ago and has admitted that she is "trying not to be hard on herself" as she looks after her newborn alongside her other young children.
Fans were delighted last year when the Sort Your Life Out host debuted her baby bump, announcing that her and hubby Joe were expecting their third child together. The Manchester Evening News reports that she was already eight months pregnant when she shared the news with the world after finding out "late" herself.
And baby Belle was born just before Valentine's Day, with Stacey saying she "literally flew" into the world at their family home, lovingly dubbed Pickle Cottage. Following the home-birth, the X-Factor star has been sharing little updates as she navigates her life as a mum-of-five- Stacey shares 16-month-old Rose and Rex, three with I'm A Celebrity winner Joe and also has two sons, Zachary and Leighton from previous relationships.
