Stacey Solomon announces baby daughter's name

Stacey Solomon has finally revealed the name of her newborn daughter.

The Loose Women presenter gave birth to her second child with actor Joe Swash at their home on 4 October - her 32nd birthday - and she finally shared the infant's name on Instagram on Tuesday.

"Rose Opal, Esmè Solomon-Swash," she began in the caption, adding rose emojis. "Our beautiful flower - Our precious jewel - who is ever loved. It’s been the most magical week. We love you to the moon and back our little Rose... We feel so so lucky to have you here… Thank you all for your loveliness, your kindness and just being there at 3am for a chat it’s been the best. Love you all."

For the name announcement, Stacey shared pictures of Rose sleeping in a pale pink outfit next to a pink rose.

The X Factor star apologised to her daughter for taking so long with her name on her Instagram Stories, writing, "Sorry it took a while princess, it was so hard, we how (hope) you grow up and love it as much as we already love you."

Stacey recently told her social media followers that her and Joe had been trying out different names and seeing if they seemed like the right fit.

"There's a few we love so we are calling her those at the moment and seeing which one suits her the best, I know that probably sounds silly," she wrote. "We loved the name Autumn but then we realised her initials would be A*S (laughing emoji) So it helped us rule out all of the 'A' names."

Stacey and Joe have been dating since 2015 and got engaged in December last year. They share a two-year-old son named Rex, while Stacey has two sons from previous relationships and Joe has one.
