Loose Women panelist Stacey Solomon has made an unexpected emotional confession revealing that she is parting ways with a major brand.
The much-loved presenter, 34, took to Instagram this week to share with fans a huge update about her professional life, admitting that she had a ‘wonderful but emotional’ day.
She went on to say she is stepping down from her ambassador role with a fashion brand after three years to spend more time with her family.
Stacey welcomed her fifth child, Belle, with her husband, Joe Swash, 42, last year. The couple also shares Rex, four, and Rose, two, while Stacey has 16-year-old Zachary with her ex Dean Cox and Leighton, 11, with former fiancé Aaron Barnham.
Posting a statement on her Instagram story, Stacey told fans: ‘Today has been a wonderful but emotional day as I shot my LAST EVER collection for In The Style.
‘I have loved every single second of being able to design & create clothing with the most incredible team & literally bring my dreams to life.’
She continued to say that this year, she has ‘thought a lot about work/family balance’ and what she needs to prioritise, admitting that to ‘give more of myself back to my family’, she needs to step away from In The Style.
‘We wanted to end on a high, so this last collection has every bit of love we could possibly give it & it only felt right to end it in my favourite season’, she explained.
While she did not reveal when the collection will be available to fans, she teased that she will ‘show you soon’.
Stacey signed off her post by thanking her fans ‘from the bottom of our hearts’ for supporting the collections and describing her time with the brand as a ‘magical’ experience.
The star has been working with the brand since 2021 to create ‘one-of-a-kind’ collections for every season of the year.
The TV star’s announcement comes just days after she won her first-ever National Television Award.
Appearing at the event with her teenage son and her sister, Jemma, Stacey was almost too overwhelmed to speak as her reality show, Sort Your Life Out, won the first prize of the night for best factual entertainment show.
Beating Jeremy Clarkson’s Clarkson’s Farm, Gogglebox, The Martin Lewis Money Show Live and The Yorkshire Vet, the star was all smiles as she thanked her son for being ‘by my side’ since the start of her showbiz journey.
Describing Zachary as her ‘rock’, she added: ‘It’s the hardest show ever to make and they work so, so hard. My amazing co-presenters.’
‘I’m so grateful I get to do a show like this, I want to thank the families who let us into their homes. If it wasn’t for the families, who opened their hearts to us, there wouldn’t be no Sort Your Life Out.’
The show, which began in 2021, follows Stacey and her team as they help families in the UK transform their houses with decluttering, upcycling and recycling.
