Stacey Solomon to return to Loose Women after being 'inundated' with other job offers

Stacey Solomon is said to be returning to the Loose Women panel on Wednesday, November 8 after being swamped with numerous other job offers. 

The 34-year-old presenter is said to have shunned a barrage of other opportunities for the ITV daytime show where she was last seen on the screen in 2022 before her maternity leave.

Solomon, who gave birth to her and husband Joe Swash's daughter Belle eight months ago, is said to be "gagging" to return. 

A source told The Sun: "Stacey is juggling work offers and is busier than ever but told her team to prioritise her return to Loose Women.

"For her the show feels like home and she loves all the cast, so is gagging to be back in the fold.

"She's a huge part of the show's future so everyone is so excited to welcome her back."

The Standard has contacted Solomon's representatives for comment. The mother-of-five first joined Loose Women in 2016 and had become a firm fan favourite. 

Back in April she announced that she was going to do a mystery job just two months after welcoming her baby.

She said on social media that she was heading to Paris for the gig, which she gave very little detail about. “I’ve got my first job back next week so I just really want to get into good habits so it’s easier,” she tweeted at the time.

“I’ve got my first day back next week, and it’s like the craziest job ever. I’m going to Paris. What the hell!”

The Sort Out Your Life host said she was stunned at being offered a job in the French city, adding that she “never gets jobs like this”.

“I really can’t stress to you enough how I never get jobs like this,” she continued.

“I get the ‘come and tidy my house’ jobs, which I love by the way, I’m not mocking it. I don’t get the ‘come to Paris’ jobs."
