Stacey Soloman has shared some glorious photos of her family holiday in Jamaica after she was eviscerated online at the weekend.
The 34 year old has five children: Zachary, 15, and Leighton, 11, from previous relationships, and she shares Rex, four, Rose, two, and baby Belle with husband Joe Swash.
From his relationship with his ex Emma Sophocleous, Joe also has 16-year-old Harry.
The X Factor star faced backlash from trolls this weekend when she posted pictures of a 20-person family holiday she bought as a Christmas present for her nearest and dearest.
After responding to the online warriors, saying ‘those who matter don’t mind, those who mind don’t matter’, Stacey is now sticking to her guns and has defiantly posted more idyllic holiday snaps.
It appeared to be a dreamy trip away, as Stacey and the family posed in chic outfits on the beach, looking the picture of happiness.
The TV personality looked to be embracing seaside life, as she wore her hair beach-swept and natural, and rocked a lovely satin slip dress.

In one photo, she hugs her youngest kids – Rose and Belle – adoringly, and in another the whole family got into frame, with Joe beaming out towards the camera, equally enamored with their squad trip.
Joe and Stacey also shared a loving moment away from their children, as they embraced as the clock struck 2024, and fireworks erupted into the night.
‘🥂 Happy New Year 🥂And Hello 2024… from my family to yours,’ Stacey began in a lengthy caption on the photos.
‘Firstly, I just want to say, thank you for all of your kindness in 2023. I’m so grateful for this platform & all of the happiness and friendship it brings. I can’t wait to share another year with you, and I hope I can bring a smile or some comfort in to your 2024.
‘But most of all, anything that maybe wasn’t right or didn’t sit well or you wished you could have done or that you held back from last year, I hope you go and get it this year.
‘It’s definitely time to let go of the negativity or those people trying to put you down and GO AND DO YOU! You deserve it. Let this be YOUR year. And say f**k it to anyone or anything that pulls you away from the love & happiness you deserve.
‘Love you all to the moon and back. 2024 let’s do this!!’

Over the weekend trolls were angered by Stacey’s holiday snaps, with some accusing her of showing off her wealth at a time when many families are struggling.
User Beth said it is ‘a big thing when you’re taking a lot of people on a holiday over the festive period when there’s going to be families etc sitting paining themselves for being unable to afford Christmas. I personally think she didn’t need to post it on Insta and could have just enjoyed a private family holiday.’
And Keelz Smith argued: ‘I just wonder when lots of people are struggling financially to even get through Christmas, whether this really needs to be shared. I think people forget that posting everything on social media is optional.’
But Stacey’s posts at the weekend also came with a flurry of support from her fans, who hit back at trolls.
Kirsty Clayton asked why ‘people are being so jealous of them,’ saying ‘we all work hard but Stacey started off being a single parent and going without’ before getting her big break, and that she and Joe ‘are allowed to go on holiday and have quality time together with the family.’
Katie Katherine admitted she was ‘jealous’ but ‘I can guarantee if I … saved up enough to take everyone I loved way I absolutely would be showing it off … people in life can afford things others can’t, doesn’t mean we shouldn’t let people be happy.’
Tasha Carroll agreed ‘It’s really nice to share on social media, it’s not rubbing it in people’s faces it’s just being proud of the journey she’s come on.’
She added: ‘I think it’s absolutely amazing to be able to treat the people closest to her and the ones that have been on her path with her to all of this.’
Joe and Stacey married last year after being together for six years.
The pair met during the tenth series of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! in 2010.
