Stacey Solomon fans say baby Belle is 'the double' of Joe Swash in sweet update

Stacey Solomon fans have all been left saying the same thing after the star shared a beautiful picture of her new baby.

The 33 -year-old star and husband Joe Swash welcomed baby Belle earlier this month, just weeks after making the surprise announcement to fans that she was expecting The tiny tot is Stacey and Joe's third child together along with three-year-old Rex and one-year-old Rose, while Stacey is also a proud mum to sons Zachary, 14, and Leighton, 10, from previous relationships and Joe is also dad to son Harry.

Stacey has shared regular updates with her Instagram followers since the birth of her new baby, including the heart-melting moment where daughter Rose met her little sister for the first time. And the most recent snap showed two-week-old Belle with her eyes open, sporting a healthy head of dark hair as Stacey gushed about the "most special two weeks" with her little one.

"Oh hello beautiful Belle," Stacey wrote alongside the adorable photos. "The most special two weeks of you Belle... today all the boys went back to school and Belle had lots of awake time.

"I think she was wondering where all the noise and craziness had gone," the mum-of-five joked. She added: "I love these days when they start to open their eyes more and really look around and begin to show you little bits of who they are and the adventures to come."

And several fans were quick to point out the same thing when they saw the snaps - saying that little Belle is the spitting image of her dad. "Such a cutie," one person wrote. "She's a female version of Joe!"

Another said: "She is the double of Joe!"

Presenter Gaby Roslin commented: "She looks just like her daddy."

"Aww she's so cute!" someone else said. "I can see such a mix of Joe and Rex in her little eyes."

Last week, Stacey earned praise from fellow mums for showing off her post-partum baby bump in a sweet photo cradling tiny Belle. "I love that I still have our bump too," she wrote. "The best memory of growing you and the perfect little ledge to sleep you on."

"I just wanted to say thank you for showing and celebrating your post-birth baby bump," one fan commented. "When I had my baby, no one had told me, and certainly no TV or film had showed me, that you still have a bump afterwards! Thank you for being such a viable and beautiful role-model!"

Another praised: "Beautiful. Love that you not afraid to show mums have a bump after birth too."

"Thanks for posting this with your bump still," someone else wrote. "I'm 10 days postpartum and have mine too, so seeing I'm not alone is reassuring."

"Love that you are proud of your body!" another fan said. "It is incredible what our body can do."
