Stacey Solomon’s family just keeps on growing as she celebrates the arrival of TWO new ‘babies’ at Pickle Cottage
SHE’S got five kids and a whole menagerie of animals.
But Stacey Solomon’s family just keeps on growing, as she celebrated the arrival of two new “babies” in a post on her Instagram Stories this weekend.
The Sort Your Life Out star opened up about the new additions after eagle-eyed fans spotted one of them in another video she shared on social media.
“So many of you are like, ‘Stacey, is that an extra duck I see in that video?'” she began.
“Well, it’s actually an extra two ducks!”
She then bent down to pick up the ducks, as she said: “Meet the two newest members of our duck family.”
Stacey then went on to explain where she’d got the ducks from, adding: “Basically some ducks were dumped at a farm in London.
“And the farm rang Luisa Zissman and was like, ‘We’d love to keep them but we don’t have a pond – we know you’ve got a big pond so do you want to take them on?’
“She told me about it and I was like, ‘I’ll take two!’
“So we’ve rescued two of them and they’ve come to live with us.”
Stacey also said it was “so cute” because one of the new ducks was yellow and the other was brown – just like Daisy and Delilah, the ducks she already had.
“Slowly but surely becoming the crazy duck lady!” she wrote over the next video, where she showed her “duck family”.
“They’re just so cute!” she gushed, adding: “So yeah, we’ve got two new babies to add to the family.”
She also admitted she hadn’t said anything about the ducks beforehand because she’s been busy filming and working away from home.
“The pond’s not finished but we’ve got extra ducks,” she laughed.
Stacey had previously announced the arrival of Daisy and Delilah in a post on Instagram, as she wrote: “Daisy & Delilah Solomon-Swash.
“So our ducks are gorgeous feather girlies & now finally we can name them.
“Honestly these little duckies have brought so much joy to our lives.
Inside Stacey Solomon's Pickle Cottage
STACEY Solomon splashed out a massive £1.2million on Pickle Cottage - and Joe Swash didn't put in a penny.
She solely stumped up the cash for their Tudor-style Essex property, which is set in 2.5 acres and boasts an outdoor swimming pool.
The former X Factor star and Joe live there with Zachary, Leighton, Rex, Rose, and Belle.
It’s not known why Stacey went alone, as ex-EastEnders actor Joe is reportedly worth over £1million, but has also been made bankrupt twice in 2009 and 2013.
Shrewd Stacey has shown she’s a dab hand at running a wide range of successful businesses including TV, books, clothing and homeware ranges.
Her main firm Key Map Entertainments is worth just shy of £3million – and she’s also branched out into cosmetics.
The former X Factor contestant registered the company Belle & Rose Ltd, named after her youngest two daughters.
“They’re so loving and cuddly and just the most amazing addition to our family!
“Can’t wait to complete pickle cottage pond & maybe adopt some more feathered friends.
“Things are starting to get a little more even around pickle cottage.
“6 boys 5 girls now counting all dogs ducks and humans!”
