The weirdest thing…I’ve just read about her pregnancy, saw the pictures of her in the snow with her little ones..and just had a massive pang of envy.
Never had that before about Stacey Solomon..just seems nice, the young kids…all the money
Very grateful for my Dd, 4, but can’t have more and would love more. Very grateful to have a roof over our heads and doing ok..but would love more!
I’m not an envious/jealous person normally so it’s taken me a bit by surprise, I’ve also never been interested in S.S either way, although she seems a nice person I suppose 🤷🏻‍♀️
Weird!

What’s the AIBU here? Whether you are BU to be jealous of SS?

She used to live up the road from me. Having seen her old house In spite of everything she does have, there just one thing I can assure you that she hasn't got. Taste.

Miaow😉

Lots of rich people have a lot of children. She's rich because she's made her life (and her children's lives) public, and that's the only reason you know who she is. She wouldn't be able to afford them if she hadn't.

She's fortunate in that she comes across and likable and down to earth and so she can capitalise on that as her brand, but her husband is unbearable and I'm sure she has her moments, like all of us.

I feel like that about every pregnant woman and every woman with kids. My barren womb ain’t creating no new life, I’ll never get to be someone’s mother. Life is harsh, we don’t always get the happy story.

@Phrenologistsfinger I'm so sorry, I thought the same and it took a v long time (10 years) many procedures, ivf, losses etc etc. Are there any other ways you could go about being a mum, if you wanted to of course? I realise how personal these things are 💜

She’s really not. She’s a savvy businesswoman, and has a lot to say on body confidence etc. By no means do I think she’s perfect. And yes she’s daft as a brush. But she’s not thick at all.

You've never known any thick people with money? It's easy now for people with very little to offer to get rich because of bloody Instagram

Both got rich from being thick but media savvy.

Forestwalks · 28/12/2022 23:34

Do understand where you are coming from I feel the same every time I hear of anyone’s pregnancy. I was blessed with one child and will be forever grateful for him but I do wish I could have had more.

SS has also mentioned in the past about miscarrying, rumour going around is she far along and due around February🤷🏼‍♀️

teaandtoastwithmarmite · 28/12/2022 23:36

I've never liked her really but how many kids she has is none of my business. I only had one and would have loved more but I'm grateful for my dd and decent husband.

MaryHoldTheCandleSteadyWhileIShaveTheChickensLeg · 28/12/2022 23:37

Stacey grew up in Dagenham and went to school with my best friend's daughter, they worked in a chip shop together. She knows what it's like to struggle and worked hard to pull herself out of relative poverty.

She's lovely and always finds time for her old school friends, so I'm very happy for her and her family.

Museya15 · 28/12/2022 23:37

I Find she berates Joe a lot. I watched her for the first tíme on a christmas decorating show a couple of weeks agó, boy. the put downs were flying

VioletLemon · 28/12/2022 23:40

That environment is absolutely covered in a thick layer of 'celeb snow' if you know what I mean.

Where did you read that??

Only because I remember seeing on her instagram her dad making one of the massive rooms upstairs in to two for the boys not in a separate building.

If she wants 5 kids thought then that's no one else’s business.

No you don't remember seeing her dad make a room UPSTAIRS into two for the boys, because it was part of the annex/pool house that he converted a room into 2.

I've seen the pictures from when the property was on the market and the floor plans. If you look at any pics of the older boys' rooms with windows you can see they are ground floor.

The main house has the master room and 2 further bedrooms (Rex and Rose).

The separate building (which is actually almost as big as the house) has a room which was converted into Z and L's rooms plus an upstairs room for H. That's also where their facilities (small kitchen area etc) are and the game room for Joe.

Wonder where they will put the new baby??
