Stacey Solomon admits she struggles with confidence as a mother.

Ahead of the new series of her Sort Your Life Out show, Stacey appeared on The One Show to discuss the story of her first family, who had were struggling with keeping their home tidy whilst looking after a young family.

She has Zachary, 15, Leighton, 11, from a previous relationship and Rex, four, Rose, one, and six-month-old Belle with her husband Joe Swash, and in a candid confession, she admitted she struggles with motherhood.

Speaking about the family who appear in the first episode later this week, she said: "So they had two young children, which was difficult anyway, and most people are working long hour jobs. She, in particular, after she had her children, suffered from how she felt and how she was dealing with and processing having her children and they also had a struggle with fertility.

"There’s a number of reasons why their house got out of control and they didn’t know how to face it going forward." Stacey also admitted she resonated with some of the lady's own story.

"She wanted to start a baking business and she had started it, but lost all her confidence after having children, which happens to so many people, myself included. What they really needed was someone to come in and tell them, you’ve got this, it’s ok," she added.

"Our show is the opposite of gawking at people, we don’t judge anyone. We want to give them that boost and start afresh. We want to help them release some of the traumatic possessions they hold onto."

Joe Swash recently spoke out to defend his and Stacey's luxury holidays. Speaking to The Mirror, he said: "We're in the public eye so you've got to take the rough with the smooth and not everyone is going to agree with us. We work really hard and we try to take our kids on holiday. We only work hard so we can spend more time and do more things with our family. People are going to have a go but it's fine they're allowed their opinion and we take it with a pinch of salt."
