Stacey clapped and encouraged Rex to toddle towards her while a smiley proud Joe stood behind the baby also clapping.

The Loose Women star said that at least she and Joe could both be there for the special moment due to being at home during lockdown.

What did Stacey say?

Alongside the post, Stacey wrote: “And he’s off. Oh pickle. Honestly I am sobbing. If there’s one good thing to come out of these scary hard times it’s that mummy and daddy both being home to see this moment.”

If anyone needs me I’ll be in the egg chair with 100 Daim bars sobbing into Rex’s baby book.

Stacey added: “Rex we are so proud of you. Oh my goodness it feels like time is going by at the blink of an eye and you’re growing so so quickly.

“Love you all. P.S Theo is like “I’m bored of this mum… I’ve been walking since I was born and never got this attention,” Stacey signed off, joking their cat was wondering what all the fuss was about.

Fun in the sun

Along with Stacey’s sons Zachary and Leighton, the family enjoyed time in the garden with Stacey revealing that Rex took two hours to open his presents as he played with each one.

Talented Stacey decorated the house and garden with a jungle theme, making a balloon arch, doughnut wall, Mickey Mouse shaped sandwiches and chocolate dipped strawberries.

The family celebration came after a devastated Joe shared the news that his beloved nan had passed away.
