Stacey Solomon had a nightmare moment during a recent fitness class as the Loose Women presenter revealed that she slipped while on a treadmill with the resulting accident tearing her leggings off.
On Saturday, the singer took to her Instagram Stories to reveal that she wasn't letting the incident dissuade her from keeping fit as she shared a clip, which can be viewed below, before she headed to the gym. The video showed off her injuries which included several scrapes running across her knees, but the star confessed that it was mostly her "pride" that had taken the hit.
Addressing followers who were concerned about her knees, she explained: "I love you all so much, thanks for worrying about my knees. I mean, they've seen better days to be honest with you. They don't look great, but it's probably my pride that hurts more than my knees at this point.
"However, I'm jumping back on the bandwagon. You know like they say if you fall of a horse, get back on, I'm getting back on that treadmill and I'm going to show it who's boss. And then hopefully, in time, everyone will forget this ever happened."

Stacey's mortifying moment happened just days after she got back from a holiday with her family, and she got a little bit emotional as she praised her eldest son, Zack, for how he looked after his younger siblings.

In a gushing caption, Stacey praised her eldest son, but also opened up about the hardships they could face when he's not on their family holidays as he continues to get older and more independent.

Me and Joe were watching through these videos on the way home & saying how much harder holidays would be without Zach! He's like a third parent who's much more fun than us, nothing is ever too much, and we have a lot to contend with but he takes it all in his stride.
"It's honestly hard to believe that I had Zach just two years older than he is now & he's a better person than I ever was at that age! Zach your love and time for your brothers and sisters is just our favourite thing to watch. Thank you for everything. Before anyone starts, we love all of my children the same amount."

Fans were quick to offer their support and praise the teenager, as one said: "Such a fabulous big brother and a credit to you and how you've raised him," and a second added: "Such a gentleman! You've raised him so well Stacey! We need more Zachary's in this world."

Being another mum of five I hear you! Having an extra pair of hands from your eldest baby makes all the difference. I truly believe having a big family teaches kids so much."
