Stacey Solomon announces she is pregnant with fifth child

Television presenter and popular social media star Stacey Solomon has announced she is expecting her fifth child. The 33-year-old announced the news by sharing a video on her Instagram page.

In it, Solomon shows partner Joe Swash a pregnancy test, as the former EastEnders star says "you're joking". A smiling Swash then calls it the "best news ever".

The couple already has two children, son Rex, three, and daughter Rose, 14 months. Stacey also has two older sons from previous relationships; Leighton, 10, who she shares with ex Aaron Barnham, and Zach, 14, whose father is Dean Cox. While Joe shares his oldest child Harry, 13, with ex Emma Sophocleous.

Sharing the news on Instagram, Stacey captioned: "So grateful & can not believe I’m saying this… Another little pickle is on the way…

"A HUGE surprise, but one that we are so thankful for. To the moon & back bub @realjoeswashy," she added.

The Loose Women panellist and former soap star met while filming for the tenth series of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! in 2010. Both Swash and Solomon won their series of the show.
