First day back at school

Even celebs get all mushy when they see their little'uns going off to school.

Discussing her own surname, she said: "I think it’s a great name to take. I think he’d be lucky to be part of the Solomon brand!"

She even revealed that she would never take his surname, adding: "I love my name so much - I wouldn’t want to take his!"

But when Nadia suggested she took a double barrelled surname and become Stacey Swash-Solomon, Stacey burst out: "That's awful!"

She added: "I always want to be Stacey Solomon and it makes me proud because I love my family."

Well, you can't argue with that!

But Stacey also has another, more practical reason behind not changing her name - her two sons from previous relationships.

She explained: "Joe wouldn’t take my name, he’s got a child and his child has his surname.

"My children have my surname and we want to remain the same as our children," before joking: "Plus I love my name, it’s so much better than Joe’s."
