Stacey Solomon has given fans a glimpse into her new job which has the backing of a Hollywood star. At the start of the year, the Loose Women star revealed all to her loyal followers about her next big project which she planned to start following the end of her maternity leave.
After welcoming her daughter Belle into the world in February, her third child with her husband Joe Swash, Stacey has dipped her toe back into the working world. Earlier this month, the 33-year-old showed off her latest range with Manchester fashion brand In The Style, with the images being shot in the garden of her family's sprawling abode, nicknamed Pickle Cottage, a nod to the nickname Stacey has for her children.
And last month, the Loose Women star headed to Paris. She said at the time it was her "craziest job ever" and revealed that one-year-old Rose had also joined her and baby Belle on the trip as L'Oreal Paris, who she was working with, said to bring her along.

But Stacey has since returned to filming away from home and on Thursday (May 18), the mum-of-five shared a look at what she was up to and confirmed she was filmed for her upcoming new show. Brickin' It is set to air on Channel 4 and will see Stacey and her team help people who have been done over by bad builders, run out of funding or simply can't finish their projects.
Revealing more about it back in January, Stacey couldn't believe her luck as the project involved a famous actress. "For a little while I've been talking to Channel 4 and a production company called Hello Sunshine which was founded by Reese Witherspoon," she shared.
"She created it to champion women in film and TV, she's just incredible at building women up and putting them at the forefront. And they asked me if I wanted to make a show with them and I was like' hell yeah I'll make a show with Reese Witherspoon's production company'. It is thought that Brickin' It with Stacey will be Hello Sunshine's first UK project.
In a snap posted to her Instagram Story, Stacey could be seen in front of the camera, sporting some short dungarees over a slouchy brown jumper. "Lots of love from Paignton," she typed alongside the post. She then posted a video of herself being filmed, in the same dungaree set but now in a purple jumper, as she walked past a series of brightly painted beach huts.
"Sometimes in telly you have to do weird awkward walks for no reason whatsoever. Some people have mastered this art. Some people are me," Stacey captioned the clip with a crying laughing emoji before setting it to the Radiohead track 'Creep'.
She later rounded off her day by posting a snap of her being mic'd up by the sea. "Bricking it in Devon day one - done," she wrote. "Now to head back home to the Pickles." She went on to say: "What a beautiful place to visit and the couple we are helping today were honestly two of the nicest people I've ever met. And they've had a crappy few years so it was so lovely to give them a hug and make exciting plans for them."
It comes after Stacey shared an admission about being 'lonely' while at home. Before she headed to work, Stacey was holding the fort at her family's Essex abode as Joe was out working on his own upcoming project. As she prepared dinner, Stacey set up her phone on the kitchen counter and chatted away to her millions of followers.
"I was in here on my own and I thought I might come on here and have a chat with my friends," she laughed. "Joe's at work and I'll be honest, I'm lonely. There's no adult conversation so i thought I could chat to you lot and then read all my messages."
