Stacey Solomon sparks speculation that she's quit Loose Women

Stacey Solomon does not appear in a group photo of Loose Women panel members, sparking speculation about her future on the show.

ITV has released an image of 18 regulars together ahead of the morning television staple celebrating its 25th anniversary next month.

But one notable absentee was 34-year-old Solomon, who has been a regular panelist on Loose Women since 2016.

Solomon, who first rose to fame as a singer on The X Factor, has made only fleeting appearances on the show recently.

The TV personality recently welcomed her fifth child, a daughter named Belle, which may explain her reduced presence on the show.

A Loose Women spokesperson said: “This September, Loose Women celebrates 25 years on TV!

“To mark the occasion, 18 panellists got together for a stunning Silver Jubilee photoshoot, and to share what the show means to them.

“Here the final image can be seen for the first time.”

Loose Women has a roster of panellists discussing the issues of the day on weekdays from 12.30-1.30pm. The three regular presenters are Ruth Langsford, Christine Lampard, Kaye Adams and Charlene Wright.

A plethora of female celebrities make appearances from time to time and a number of them are in the photo, wearing an aquamarine dress.

Among those present are Christine Lampard, Judi Love, Katie Piper, Kelle Bryan, Frankie Bridge, Dame Kelly Holmes, Charlene White, Sunetra Sarker, and Olivia Attwood-Dack.

Solomon has become a fans’ favourite on Loose Women since her first appearance in 2016 and has also presented the show on occasion.

She has not commented about her absence from the photo and has used recent social media posts to plug her own beauty products.

She previously wrote on Twitter: “Incredibly proud to be a @loosewomen surrounded by intelligent, kind, wise, hilarious women!”
