Stacey Solomon admits she had no idea she was pregnant when she got married – despite fans guessing
STACEY Solomon has admitted she had no idea she was pregnant when she got married – despite her followers guessing she was.
The Loose Women star, 33, revealed she is in fact due to give birth next month, meaning she would have been around three months pregnant when she tied the knot to Joe Swash,40, in July of this year.
But while everyone else suspected she might have another pickle on the way, Stacey has insisted she didn’t find out until later on.
After revealing her huge bump this evening, she joked: “For those saying you knew when we got married, well you could have let us know Poirot!”
Stacey told how the pregnancy came as a surprise to her – telling fans in a new video this evening: “We actually found out way later then you would usually, so we are way further along than when you would usually tell people.
"So I was really, really nervous and it was a real surprise, but we are so grateful.”
