Stacey Solomon shared an update as she prepared to send her children back to school after the summer holidays, with her son Rex hitting a new milestone.

The Sort Your Life Out presenter, 33, is mum to five and had a busy day as she ironed school uniforms and prepared for the new school year.

The star told fans how she was “so emotional” as her four year old son Rex prepared to head to “big boy school” this year.

Sharing a photo of his school uniform prepped on a stand and ready to go, Stacey wrote: “New level unlocked. Big boy school.

“I can’t even describe how emotional this makes me. I can’t believe in just a few days Rexy will be in big school. He’s still my baby.

“And Leighton is off to seniors. Omg send help.”

She then mentioned the stand she’d used to hang up Rex’s new uniform, writing: “This stand is from another small business @fall_withgrace. I bought my first one four years ago when Rex was a baby and I finally had to upgrade to big boy”.

In a family photo shared over the weekend, Stacey called her weekend with family “wholesome” and said she didn’t want to “go back to reality”.

She wrote: “A wholesome weekend at home…That’s it. Doesn’t happen often. Just stayed home all weekend doing my favourite things in the world. Eating ALL the food, being with family, walks, games, cuddles, baths & just time with them.

“Do you ever have one of those weekends where you don’t want to go to bed on the last night because you know it’s back to reality tomorrow? that’s me right now. It really is the little things isn’t it. Hope you’ve all had a lovely weekend, lots of love from all of us”.

Stacey welcomed her newest arrival Belle in March this year with husband Joe Swash.

She is also mum to son Rex and one year old daughter Rose with ex-EastEnders star Joe, as well as mum to Zachary, 14, with her ex Dean Cox and son Leighton, 10, with ex Aaron Barham.

Joe is also dad to teenage son Harry, 15, who he shares with ex-girlfriend Emma Sophocleous.

Stacey recently opened up to OK! on returning for a new series of her BBC series Sort Your Life Out, where she helps families declutter their homes.

But the star admitted even she is not immune to an untidy house, saying: “I come home and I’m like, ‘Whoa, I’ve got to sort my own life out! Life is busy.

“Most people are working two full-time jobs, if not more. And they’ve got children to contend with, as well as other commitments.”

She added: “Even if you’ve got no mental health issues – I don’t know if I’ve ever met anyone who doesn’t, myself included – even if you have nothing else to worry about, with both people in the household working and you’ve got children, even that is enough to let it get on top of you”.
