Former X Factor star Stacey Solomon has been praised by her online followers after she proudly showed off her stretch marks whilst enjoying a holiday with her sons Zachary and Leighton.
Stacey, who is expecting her first child with her boyfriend Joe Swash, posted a snap of herself wearing a bikini to her Instagram, gracefully showing off her amazing figure.
She wrote, 'Spending some time with mummy all to himself before he has to share me three ways. He’s been sharing me with his little brother for nearly 7 years and he’s been incredible. So we are getting some memories in during the calm before the storm 😂 love u Zachy 💛 P.S He’s laughing because he thinks my boobs are way too big and embarrassing for me to be cuddling him 😂'. sic
The Loose Women star later uploaded another photo of herself, writing, 'I honestly love how much stretch marks shine in the sun! Natural glitter ✨✨ 😍 💜 Photo courtesy of Zachary 💜'. sic

Another added, 'We need more posts like this 🙌🏻 my stomach is absolutely covered in them (second pregnancy adding to it) and sometimes it’s so depressing. Seeing more people embrace them is soooo important and comforting! Well done you for having the balls and confidence to do so. Imagine being a teenager with stretch marks and seeing this post?! What a confidence boost! X'. sic

So you can imagine my delight to find out that she still loves me and my company very much she’s just been growing a baby.'
He then added, 'I can’t begin to describe how happy we are to be able to share this wonderful news. We’ve been so blessed with 3 incredible children that we’ve had the privilege of raising and we are forever grateful to have the chance to become parents to another wonderful child. It’s all very overwhelming and emotional and we couldn’t be happier right now.' sic
Stacey and Joe's baby is due later in the year.
