Stacey Solomon brought her sisters Jemma and Samantha to the National Television Awards tonight, where they rubbed shoulders with the likes of Maya Jama, Holly Willoughby and the Coronation Street cast.
Sporting a pink frilly number, the 33 year old mum-of-five was snapped on the red carpet alongside personal trainer Samantha in an eye-catching silver piece, and business owner Jemma, who looked gorgeous in a pale lime dress – the cameras capturing a sweet moment as the siblings laughed the night away.
Her husband Joe Swash was also in attendance at London's O2 Arena bash, with Stacey confessing earlier in the day that her anxieties and hormones were both raging ahead of a child-free night.
"Did my first school drop off, came on my period, and after school pick up I’m off to the NTAs," she wrote over a shot of herself working out. "My anxiety is high, hormones are raging and my emotions are all over the place. So I went for a run, with maybe a mild cry."
Stacey, who first broke onto the scene by competing in The X Factor in 2009 before moving onto I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! a year later and Loose Women in 2016, recently welcomed OK! into her family's abode of Pickle Cottage.
Having impressed us with her immaculate tidiness, she went on to suggest she's not always been that way inclined.
"Me and my mum laugh about this now, because before I had [son] Zachary I was all over the place. I was such an unorganised mess. I was so scatty and would forget my instruments for school and all my homework and stuff and I just lived this really ridiculously awkward life of losing stuff," Stacey exclusively shared.
Unexpectedly becoming a mum at the tender age of 17, the singer-turned-TV-presenter (her latest project is DIY programme Bricking It) seemingly realised that if she didn't get a grip on her life, she wouldn't be able to cope with the trials of motherhood.
"I honestly put it down to having Zach at a really young age and having so many commitments," she reflected, 16 years on from his arrival.
"I was still at college doing my A levels, as well as working on the side. As soon as I had Zachary, I realised I couldn’t live my life in a scatty way any more. I had a human to look after, I had to work out where my milk vouchers were and how I would keep them going for the whole week. How would I get him into nursery then get to college, then get to work, and who was going to do childcare?
"Everything became like a military operation and if I wasn’t organised, I would not have got through the day."
With three kids still under the age of five, does she ever get some 'me time'?
"There’s one space in my house that no one goes into and it’s where my clothes are – like my walk-in wardrobe," she explained.
"It’s not massive, but it’s big enough for me to sit on a chair and no one, not even the dogs, are allowed in there. So if I ever need to hide away, I go in there and I just shut the door and then no one comes in."
