Sneaky puff: Seven months pregnant Stacey Solomon was spotted smoking down an alley way


Seven months pregnant Stacey Solomon was caught smoking four cigarettes in two hours as she stood in an alley way clutching her baby bump.

The 22-year-old reportedly claimed that although she was embarrassed at being caught out, her doctor told her that it was OK to smoke.

The former X Factor contestant and Foxy Bingo's mum of the year was in the middle of a photo shoot in Fulham, south west London, when she slipped outside for a break and was seen puffing away on the cancer causing sticks.


She told The People newspaper: I know it doesn't look good but I only have a few cigs a day.'

The face of frozen food store Iceland also said that she had not let her fans down and wanted to quit in the future.

The mother-of-one claimed that her doctor said it would be 'more stressful' on her body if she gave up altogether.

Her publicist Max Clifford told the Mail Online: 'Stacey has been smoking one or two cigarettes a day but she is desperately trying to quit and she is very embarrassed about it all.

'She's going to be trying electronic cigarettes and she knows it's bad but the stress of having a baby and all her work commitments have been difficult.'

The chatterbox queen has four-year-old Zachary, with ex-boyfriend Dean Cox, while her latest addition to the family will be with fiancé Aaron Barham.

When asked if she was enjoying her pregnancy, the star told New! magazine: 'Not at all. The novelty wears off after a few months. I can’t wait to be a normal size again – and eat prawns.

'I think I have [gained weight] but everyone keeps giving me that line "Oh, you look so small". I’m like, "No, I look huge!". As soon as I find out I’m pregnant, my hips always widen.'

She said she was probably a size 12 and was a size eight when she fell pregnant.

But she added that she wouldn't be in a rush to lose her baby weight.

'I’m not one of these people who believes in leaving the hospital and being a size zero because I won’t. I’ll be this size for a few months. Hopefully, I won’t eat as much as I won’t be feeding me and a baby.'
