Stacey Solomon feels 'so lucky' to have pool in heatwave as her children take a dip

Stacey Solomon admitted she feels "so lucky" to have a swimming pool at her home, which she calls Pickle Cottage, during the heatwave.

Loose Women star Stacey, 32, and her two younger children Rex, three, and Rose made a beeline for their swimming pool at the crack of dawn on Monday morning.

As Stacey shared a photo of her son Rex sitting on a slide at the edge of the pool while nine-month-old Rose is sat beside her big brother, she added the time the image was taken at 6.21am.

Stacey shared the photo on her Instagram story and wrote: "Good morning. I've got work later and the boys have got school so we got up bright and early this morning to have some pool time".

Mum-of-four Stacey, who is also mum to Zach and Leighton, added: "Feel so so lucky & grateful to have the pool. Especially in this weather", alongside a praying hands emoji.

"Hope you are ok today it's going to be so hot in some places to look after yourself and the fur babies love you lots", she then ended the message with a black heart emoji.

Later, Loose Women star Stacey shared a sweet video of Rex and her husband-to-be Joe Swash playing around the pool with the slide.

In the sweet clip, little Rex can be seen carefully climbing the stairs of the slide with his 40-year-old dad Joe's help before he slides down into the pool.

Rex can be heard saying to Joe: "Daddy don't push me in," while Joe replies: "Alright."

As Rex lands in the pool he giggles and swims back to the edge while mum Stacey can also be heard laughing from behind the camera.

"Happy Monday," Rex says while his parents copy him.

Stacey and Joe began renovating the pool at the stunning Essex home, which the pair moved into in July last year.

The pool was finally completed in June this year after a series of delays.

As Stacey shared a series of photos to reveal the finished product to her 5.3million followers, she wrote in the caption: "Pickle Cottage Pool done Finally

"It’s been a long, crazy process but it’s finally finished

"So Today was a very exciting day at pickle cottage… I know lots of you ask all the time to see how it’s getting on so I couldn’t not share the ending

"But I am always conscious sharing it. I often feel like this should have never been ours. Like I’m a true imposter And I’m so aware of how lucky we are to have been able to bring this pool back to life again."

Stacey added: "Im so excited to forever love it and look after it and respect the water for as long as we are lucky enough to have it. Happy Friday Everyone Lots of love from all of us p.S I’m the worst pool jumper ever".
