Stacey Solomon has been fiercely defended by her loyal social media followers as she posted a string of happy family photos. The Loose Women star has openly shared that she has been emotional about leaving her young family behind while working.
While Stacey has been back at work for weeks now, the 33-year-old spent the last week travelling back and forth to Scotland. The mum-of-five has been away from home filming a new episode of her BBC One show Sort Your Life Out.
She did return back to Essex twice in that week as she booked in other work commitments before knowing how far away she'd be filming her popular show, which sees Stacey and her team help families transform their homes which begins with a life-changing declutter.

However, she returned to Scotland on Thursday and didn't head back to Essex until Sunday, saying it's the longest she's been away from her youngest children with her husband Joe Swash - Rex, four, Rose, 20 months, and five-month-old Belle.
But on Sunday (July 9), Stacey shared how she had been reunited with her husband and their children. Posting on the new social media site Threads, she said: "Made it home to my babies. Current happiness level 1000000000. Happy Sunday everyone."
She also took to Instagram to share a bunch of sweet snaps of them all together. In the first couple of images, Stacey beamed for the camera as she stood in the middle of her brood. Joe held onto baby Belle while a smiley Rose stood in front of her mum.
And Stacey's eldest sons looked all grown up, especially Zachary who is now starting to tower over his mum. Other images showed Rose and Rex adorably posing for the camera while Belle giggled alongside her former EastEnders star dad.
"Home. Sundays with my whole world," Stacey started the caption of her post to her 5.7 million followers. "So happy to be back from Scotland. Had a lovely lazy morning with this lot! Now we off to my big big sisters 40th birthday… Happy Sunday Everyone. Love you all."
Despite the cute display, some of Stacey's followers were left furious with some of the comments made underneath the post.
@tanya.smith16 said: "Dam, people asking if someone is pregnant is bloody rude, you do know ppl bloat etc right around TOTM or even those who have IBS etc, since when has it been ok to speculate. Anyway absolutely Beautiful pictures."
@jadeeeann_xx commented: "The comments... quit asking someone if they're pregnant. It's not only rude, but its a s***ty thing to ask. If she was, she'd want to announce it HERSELF, not be hounded. There's many reasons not to ask someone if they're pregnant or say they look it. Bloating is a thing. And it's normal. You're pregnancy comments could make someone insecure and mess with their mental health. Stop. Asking." @hayleymorris2292 added: "No she's not pregnant she's had 5 beautiful babies and our body's change! It is so rude to assume or ask that shes pregnant!! She looks absolutely stunning."
Others, however, were sharing their compliments. @bellabow_fairy said: "Beautiful family photos @staceysolomon @realjoeswashy p.s. love your dress @staceysolomon." @the_blooming_bungalow replied: "Aww what a picture love it."
@sherells_home commented: "That’s an impressive photo to get everyone looking in the right direction." @crazycleaningcrawford shared: "Aww the smiles say it all! I applaud you because working is a must but having to be away from all your pickles must be so hard." @fall_withgrace added: "This is so beautiful."
