Peter Andre’s wife Emily slams ‘perfect’ celebrity mums

She praised Stacey Solomon for her real attitude

Last week, we all fell in love with Stacey Soloman just that little bit more than before when she posted a video online in which she poked fun at her body while on holiday.

In the clip she joked about her love handles, saggy boobs and stretch marks and posted it online.

It wasn’t long before the hilarious clip went viral and everyone was talking about it.

Stacey explained afterwards on Loose Women that she had posted the clip to poke fun at herself before someone else did.

But not only were Loose Women fans enamoured by the funny skit, so too was Peter Andre’s wife Emily.

The gorgeous mum of two has said in her OK! column that, like Stacey, she too has a few body issues of her own after having a baby.

She also said that celebrities portray a “false image” of how they look after pregnancy.

“The video Stacey Solomon shared of herself celebrating her ‘muffin top’ and ‘saggy boobs’ is amazing,” she told the magazine.

“She’s had two kids and for someone like her to speak out is great.

“I think some celebrities portray a false image of how they look after pregnancy.

“They hide away for months and then emerge looking amazing, suggesting that they recovered really quickly.”

Emily said she was “lucky” in terms of her tummy but understood that “everyone has their problem areas, including me”.

“I think of any change in my body as a reminder of my journey to have my babies and how amazing the human body is,” she said.

“We need to celebrate all shapes and sizes!”

In Stacey’s clip she said she had three favourite parts of her bikini body: 1) her muffin top that keeps her insulated and keeps her comfy when lying on a stone floor. 2) her “saggy boobies” which she can carry stuff under and 3) her stretch marks which lets her kids colour in.
