STACEY Solomon has revealed the incredible grave she built in the garden of Pickle Cottage in memory of her beloved late dog Theo.
The mother-of-four took to Instagram to reveal the impressive shrine, which sits under the sprawling magnolia tree in the backyard of her £1.2million Essex home.
Stacey, 32, took a video as she laid out a candle and rocks that had been placed in Theo’s old water bowl as she went to visit the garden grave.
She filmed as she showed off the stunning plaque that had been placed where the sweet dog – who died in December age 11 – was laid to rest.
“Our darling Theo, we were so lucky to love you and we will never stop,” the emotional sign read. “Sweet dreams, Fifi. 2010 – 2021.”
Stacey continued to film as she showed off the flowers she had laid, as well as the bench that had been placed next to the grave for her to “sit and have a cuppa”.
“We had a memory plaque made for Theo,” the Loose Women star captioned the post. “She lays underneath the magnolia tree.
“The most beautiful tree in the garden but it never blooms for long enough, just like you Theo. We miss you.”
She detailed of the bench: “I pulled a bench over so I can just sit and have a cuppa with her. Peanut just sat here looking at everything. He never just sits.”
Stacey signed off the emotional post by calling her remaining pet Peanut “special” as she said he “really broke her heart” at Theo’s graveside.
