Stacey Solomon has issued a family update today. The Loose Women star regularly keeps her social media followers updated with her personal life and posting to her Instagram story she has admitted feeling 'terrible' after dropping her children off at school after half term.

The mum-of-five shared captioned a photo of some land outside Pickle Cottage: "Everyone went back to school today. So four school runs done now time for work! Anyone else's kids get so sad to go back to school?

"Mine were devastated this morning. They usually love school but we had such a lovely week at home. I felt terrible dropping them off this morning."

The Sort Your Life Out star made the most of the half term holidays with the whole family dressing up for Halloween. Sharing images of herself, husband Joe and children dressed up as characters from Peter Pan, Stacey said: "Literally nothing makes me happier than family dress up. We are off to trick or treat the neighbours. Joes over the moon about his tights."

An update the following day showed Pickle Cottage transformed with Christmas decorations. Dressed in a Santa costume with festive lights over her Stacey said: Happy 1st November everyone. Spare a thought for how long I had to wait for Joe to actually get up and find me."

The fun activities at Stacey's Pickle Cottage home are a regular. She often shares DIY hacks, crafts and playtime ideas with fans. Stacey and former EastEnders actor Joe moved into their £1.3million Pickle Cottage home in 2021.

The couple tied the knot at the property in 2022. The 35-year-old presenter and husband Joe Swash are set to star in a new BBC reality TV show called Escape to Pickle Cottage, which will offer a fly-on-the-wall look at their family life.

In September the 34-year-old bagged the Factual Entertainment gong at the National Television Awards for her show Sort Your Life Out. The BBC programme sees Stacey and her team team help families transform their homes with a life-changing declutter.
