Stacey Solomon fans praise 'brave' bikini post as new mum shows off cellulite

Stacey Solomon fans praised an "inspirational" photo of her post-baby body which proudly showed off her cellulite and "tummy ledge".

The mum-of-three shared an adorable snap on Instagram of herself cradling her new baby Rex as she waded in the sea on holiday.

The Loose Women presenter beamed in a black bikini as she showed off her cellulite and "back bumps", declaring that she "loves her body".

In a caption shared with her two million followers, Stacey said: "I love my body. Every bit of it. Even the bits that society says shouldn’t be there.

"Because EVERY bit of it came together to make him. And Zachary. And Leighton. Cellulite is beautiful, back bumps add character and tummy ledges are great for resting a baby on."

Fans were quick to heap praise on the 29-year-old mum, praising her for being an "inspiration for all women".

Nadine Thompson-Brooks commented: "You are amazing, I love your body positivity - if we were all like you and celebrated and lifted each other we'd be unstoppable. Gorgeous inside and out."

Johanna Dees said: "I actually love you. I waste far too much of my life hating my body - which has grown and birthed twin boys and a beautiful girl. I need to remind myself that my body is not gross, it’s amazing. Instagram needs more people like you."

Instagram user tanyapg27 said: "The positivity you send out to women is inspiring. You are one beautiful role model."

Lau.e.morris commented: "More women like you please! Inspiration to all women."

Gatleyx said: "You are an absolute inspiration. Makes me feel so much better seeing your posts! Makes a lonely judgey [sic] world feel that little bit less lonely."

Stacey , who is also mum to Zachary, 11, and Leighton, nine, looked beautiful in the candid snap as she wraped her arms around little Rex on a family holiday with boyfriend Joe Swash.

Rex is the couple's first child together, with Stacey also being mum to two children from previous relationships and Joe having a son.

The couple welcomes baby Rex in May, with Stacey sharing regular posts about how her body has changed since giving birth.
