Stacey Solomon says newborn has 'more hair' than Rose as she shares adorable new snap

Stacey Solomon has joked her newborn daughter has more hair than her big sister Rose.

The mum-of-five, 33, returned to Instagram on Sunday to catch up with fans and thank her followers for their kind messages, after announcing the birth of her youngest child on Saturday.

Stacey and husband Joe Swash, 40, welcomed their third child together into the world earlier this week - with the Loose Women breaking the news on Instagram after days of being uncharacteristically quiet on the site.

Addressing her fans on her Instagram Stories on Sunday, Stacey laughed about how much hair her new bundle of joy has despite only being a few days old.

"Hi! I just wanted to come on and say hi and thank you all for your lovely messages," the former X Factor finalist began as she caught up with her fans while cradling her baby girl, whose name has not yet been revealed.

Stacey continued: "Loads of you are making me laugh asking 'where did that hair come from?' We don't know!"

"I literally pulled her out and was like 'Joe she's got hair' - she's nearly got more hair than Rose and it's really dark" the doting mum added with a laugh.

Stacey went on to admit she's 'on a high' after giving birth to her fifth child and confess she's making an effort to enjoy the time with her newborn because she's aware how fast kids grow up.

"I'm just soaking up every second," the star added before thanking her fans for their support.

On Saturday, following days of silence on social media, Stacey took to her Instagram Stories this evening to address her unusual lack of online activity, sharing a snap of herself taken while pregnant and writing: "To my little family on here...

"I didn't realise I wasn't quite prepared for the crazy quick whirlwind that occured right after I took this picture.

"I'm so excited to share with you that...."

The DIY guru then shared a grid post filled with snaps of her newborn baby daughter.

"She’s Here. Our beautiful, daughter born at home with all of your brothers and sister ready to snuggle you forever and ever," Stacey began when captioning the stunning shots.

"You literally flew into our world and none of us can quite believe your thick dark head of hair that we just can’t get over.

"We can’t believe your here. Welcome to the world beautiful girl, thank you for the last few months in my tummy, we can’t wait to love you forever and ever we are so grateful we get to be your family."

Stacey is now a proud mum to the newborn, one-year-old daughter Rose and son Rex, three, who she shares with Joe, and sons Zachary, 14, and Leighton, ten, from relationships before she met the EastEnders star.

Former King of the Jungle Joe is also dad to teenage son Harry from a previous engagement.
