Stacey Solomon admits she ‘can’t cope’ over daughter Belle’s emotional milestone

Stacey Solomon has shared an adorable update about her daughter Belle, admitting she “can’t cope” over the eight-month-old’s precious milestone.

The Loose Women panellist welcomed her third child with husband Joe Swash in February, much to the excitement of her adoring fanbase. Stacey, 34, is already the proud mum of four-year-old Rex and toddler Rose, whom she also shares with the EastEnders star, as well as Zach, 14, and Leighton, 10, who are her sons from previous relationships.

The X Factor star regularly posts snippets of her adventures at Pickle Cottage in Essex, where she has lived with Joe and her five children since 2021. In her latest update, Belle can be seen dressed up in a Halloween-themed onesie as she beams in her parents’ lavish garden. In another photo, Stacey is balancing the cherubic tot on her knees as her besotted hubby looks on fondly in the background. The VIP couple is dressed casually for the snap, with the Dagenham native rocking a Nirvana sweatshirt and grey skinny jeans while Joe dons a black baseball cap and black t-shirt. In the final snap on the carousel, Belle is pictured sitting next to her older brother, Rex, who is kitted out in an orange jumper with a large ghost design.

“Belle’s First Halloween,” Stacey captioned the autumnal post. “That smile I can’t cope. The little ones all wanted to dress up just to be at home today.” If that wasn’t precious enough, the busy mum then revealed that it was Rose’s idea to get her little sister ready for Halloween.

“Rose wanted to dress Belle up so we took some pictures at the front door for belles first Halloween,” Stacey explained. “Happy Tuesday Everyone. Hope this makes you smile as much as it did us.”

The TV personality’s followers were quick to share their reaction to the post, with many leaving sweet words about her adorable kids.

“Oh my goodness cuteness overload,” one person said, while another Stacey fan wrote, “Aww your [sic] girls are so alike now.” A large portion of the messages revolved around Joe’s resemblance to Belle, who appears to share her father’s distinctive auburn hair and brown eyes.

“Wow she looks like her daddy,” one follower said, echoing another who insisted, “She’s a real little Joe isn’t she.” Stacey shared more of her Halloween celebrations with the kids on her Instagram Story, posting pictures of them picking up leaves to later be used for a spooky arts and crafts activity.
