Stacey Solomon – 'I can't handle it!'

Emotional Stacey Solomon reveals why she's struggling with busy family life

With a brood of five and a busy career to juggle, it’s hardly surprising that things can get on top of Stacey Solomon sometimes.

And that’s what seems to be happening at the moment, as the star has admitted that she’s felt ‘scared’ and ‘emotional’.

After Stacey, her husband Joe Swash and their three young children, Rex, four, Rose, two, and one-year-old Belle, as well as Stacey’s older boys Zachary, 16, and Leighton, 11, took a trip around Scotland in their new camper van, Stacey admitted she and Joe ‘nearly killed each other’.

And when the topic of having another baby came up on her BBC show Sort Your Life Out, she confessed, ‘I can’t even handle what I have now.’

Clashing with Joe

Stacey recently suggested she was cross with Joe for going away on a last-minute work trip. Joe starred in an episode of World’s Most Dangerous Roads, but Stacey explained how the former actor took on the job and flew out to Central America at the eleventh hour, leaving her in the lurch.

‘I had literally started filming Christmas Crafts and invited loads of people to a party I had put together,’ she said, adding, ‘Joe out of the blue took this job in Guatemala and left me [with] five kids and a film crew.’ She jokingly added, ‘It better have been worth it.’
