Stacey Solomon puts on a very leggy display in a white swimsuit before slipping into a black bikini during Lake Como work trip
Stacey Solomon looked incredible a series of stunning swimwear snaps from her work trip to Lake Como on Wednesday.
The busy mum of five, who has jetted to the idyllic location to shoot with her haircare brand REHAB, put on a very leggy display in a white swimsuit while posing with her products on a boat.
Stacey then slipped into a skimpy black bikini, and couldn't stop smiling as she soaked up the sun.
In another image, the TV personality put on a glamorous display in a plunging purple dress, with a daring thigh-high split.
She wrote in the caption: 'What a dream come true. To visit our @rehabyourhair AD (my brand) sunshine spritz factory & launch our shimmer spray. What a beautiful beautiful city.

'With the most breathtaking views everywhere you look. I feel so lucky. And so proud of how far Rehab has come. From Vicky & Lulu's garages to Lake Como. Thank you from the bottom of all of our hearts to every single one of you who have supported rehab from the very beginning and are still championing it now.
'It means the absolute world to us & we wouldn't even have the chance to even make our products in places with the special technologies we need without your support. Happy Wednesday everyone.'
Stacey has been keeping her 6.1m Instagram followers up to date with her travels with the haircare brand she invested in two years ago.
Indeed, the TV star, 35, shares everything on social media, from her life at Pickle Cottage with husband Joe Swash and their children, to her fitness journey.
Last year, after documenting her progress in her newly built home gym, Stacey shared an inspirational message with her followers where she embraced her 'hip cushions' and 'boobs which can hold my gym essentials'.
After sharing a picture of herself on her Instagram Stories coming back from the gym in a pink T-shirt and leggings, the mother-of-five was inundated with messages from her followers who commented on how great she looked.
Stacey, who is mum to Zachary, 17, Leighton, 12, Rex, five, Rose, three and two-year-old Belle, then took to her social media to address the influx of messages she had received.
Standing in front of a mirror with some of the comments displayed on screen she said: 'I've had so many lovely messages like this lately, but I thought it was really important to come on here and say when I take the gym clothes off I look like this...'
Stacey enjoyed taking in the sights during her downtime
The Loose Women panellist hen proceeded to pull her leggings down past her hips and flaunt her unfiltered and non photoshopped body.
She added '...Which is also really pretty and a really lovely body and I just feel like it's important to show that.'
Pulling a can of deodorant and a hairbrush out from under her breasts, Stacey then joked: 'Don't get me wrong, I've got abs for the first time in my life, but I can still very comfortably lay down on my hip without feeling a thing and when I take my sports bra off, there's still enough weight and length in my boobs to hold my gym essentials.
'Deodorant, a hairbrush, you name it, these babies can hold it! But yeah I just posted that for anyone who might need to see it today or ever.'
Stacey then uploaded the video onto her grid and captioned the post: 'Just because I think it's important to see you can have abs (some days) and also have hip cushions and a womb!!! You're perfect & I'm sure the bodies you may aspire to, look different, depending on the day/clothes/hormones/angles.
'I've been consistently going to the gym for nearly a year! Wahoo (I know who I am?) But that means I spend a lot of time in gym wear which is specifically designed to hold you together & support you so you don't get a nipple in the eye on the treadmill!
'So just thought I'd show you my body underneath because I don't think we see it enough. Do what makes you feel good & that you enjoy. Your happiness is the biggest priority'.
Fans flocked to her comment section to praise the star for how open and honest she had been.
Stacey's trip abroad comes after she suffered some heat recently when her followers turned on her over her ill-judged rant after losing out on a prize at the 2025 BAFTA Television Awards .
While she congratulated the winners, Stacey couldn't help but reveal how 'gutted' she was for her team who 'deserved' the award as she declared that they were 'robbed'.
Fans claimed Stacey is starting to 'show her true colours' compared to her usual wholesome demeanor and told the BBC presenter to 'grow up' and that she has 'got too big for her boots'.
However not everyone agreed and others believed Stacey was being 'refreshingly honest' and was simply just 'disappointed for her team'.
In the original video, Stacey fumed: ' We didn't win a BAFTA . And I know I'm supposed to take it gracefully like a champ but, I'll be honest, I'm devastated!.
Laughing at her reaction, she continued: 'I'm not handling it very well, I'm not taking it very gracefully - I'm devastated! I'm devastated for our whole team, like I'm so gutted for our team.
'Everyone got dressed up and was really hopeful, I think because they work so hard. It's not an easy show to make, Sort Your Life Out and the team work so hard to make it happen and they so deserve the BAFTA.
'The Sort Your Life Out team deserved a BAFTA and I'm devastated. I'm not saying that everyone else didn't deserve their BAFTAs, they absolutely did.
'People think making TV is really easy and it's not, so everyone deserves recognition. But I'm just gutted for my whole Sort Your Life Out family because I feel like they deserved a BAFTA. I'm gonna say it - I'm gutted!'.
Going on to reveal what it takes to make their show, she went on: 'We'll pack up a house and within seven days that house is packed up, into vans, over to a warehouse, laid out on the floor, we go through it meticulously, we make sure it doesn't just get chucked away.
'We donate, we recycle, we resell things. We put it all back and try and put it in systems to help families move forward...'
She also gave a shout out to the families who give up their time and open their homes to TV audiences, especially when they run the risk of being judged.
Stacey now juggles work on Sort Your Life Out with her family reality show for the BBC as well as her many businesses like REHAB.
Stacey's involvement in REHAB Your Hair marks the first time she has ever invested her own money in a business.
The star, who rose to fame on The X Factor 15 years ago has amassed a huge fortune after putting name to everything from cleaning products, TV shows, clothing lines and crafts.
And after running her business empire from Pickle Cottage in Essex, Stacey's next business move is to head Stateside as it was recently revealed that she is in talks to launch her hugely popular hair brand in the US following its success in the UK.

Love Island's Harry and Helena share a passionate smooch as they pack on the PDA in bed after sneaking off to the Hideaway
Love Island stars Harry Cooksley and Helena Ford shared a passionate smooch as they packed on the PDA in bed after sneaking off to the Hideaway together. Wednesday's episode saw the chaos continue after the previous day's couple-switching antics. Shakira was left furious at the end of Tuesday's episode when Harry flirted with Helena, just minutes before she unexpectedly smooched Blu in the Hideaway - with viewers branding her a 'hypocrite '. And Harry and Helena defied her fury as they continued their antics into the night, as they sneaked off into the Hideaway together before passionately kissing in bed. The scenes left viewers stunned, as they claimed the 'messy' moves reminded them of earlier Love Island seasons. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Fans wrote: 'Can't lie this is class it's good TV guys it's what we need,'; 'THAT HAPPENED SO SUDDENLY,'; 'This year they all don't give a toss about waiting n taking time. It's one man for himself,'; 'Finally some juicy drama! This is what we want to see not people playing it safe,'; 'Messy like the earlier seasons YESSSS 'I actually love this mess. Feels like the old days,'; 'It's gonna end in tears but I'm loving it he's playing a massive game.' Just days into the new series, the drama heated up as the stars left their respective partners for the infamous Hideaway. Viewers watched on as Harry, 30, told Helena to tap his foot on the way out before they made their late night exit. However, their secret escape was rumbled, with most of the islanders noticing their exit - including Shakira Khan, who was sleeping next to Harry. Night vision cameras captured the moment, as Shakira watched the pair depart with a emotionless expression. Fans wrote: 'Can't lie this is class it's good TV guys it's what we need,'; 'THAT HAPPENED SO SUDDENLY' Previously, the Hideaway was invite-only, where islanders could enjoy a romantic night of passion together. However, for the 12th series, producers have ripped up the rule break and opened the breakout room's doors 24/7. Elsewhere in Thursday's episode, Harry discovered that Shakira had shared a kiss with Blu Chegini in the Hideaway the night before. In a conversation with Dejon, he told him: 'You know he (Blu) kissed her (Shakira)?' Harry replied: 'No he didn't…I don't believe what I'm hearing.' Taking to X, formerly Twitter, viewers wrote: 'Shakira doesn't have a right to be mad at Harry when she's talking to Ben and Blu & also kissed Blu, I think she wanted to pick him last night,'; 'Harry inviting Helena to the hideaway, Blu and Shakira kissing in the hideaway after she was mad at Harry for touching Helena …. Omfgggg I LOVEEEEE this mess,'; In scenes which played out during tonight's show, viewers watched as cabin crew Helen Ford and Harry Cooksley snuck off A teaser clip from the highly anticipated episode shows Harry, 30, telling Helena to tap his foot on the way out of the bedroom 'Shakira: It's made me put my guard up. Shakira 10 minutes later.... [kissing gif],'; 'Shakira is mooooving maaad fam,Harry turn your head brudda your ting is eazyyy,'; 'Please I approve what shakira did. she's just a hypocrite for getting upset with Harry. They're not married abeg and Harry ain't it anyway. So let her do her worst.' Love Island fans are set to enjoy the X-rated sex scenes happening in the famous Hideaway for the very first time in five years, according to bosses' comments. 'If sex happens, we'll show it. The Hideaway will be open 24 hours,' Mike Spencer, Love Island's Creative Director said. He added: 'We need to keep the show fresh and exciting. After 10 years, the stats speak for themselves. The show will continue to thrive.' Although the usual play of Love Island is to couple up with one other person from the opposite sex - bosses are hoping for potential throuples in the villa this year as they ' tear up the rule book' and install new furniture to create drama.

Love Island fans beg producers to step in and remove lad after ‘disgusting' behaviour
LOVE Island fans have insisted that one Islander should be removed from the villa after his 'disgusting' behaviour. 30-year-old Harry has come under fire after his shock betrayal on the show after ditching partner Shakira in bed for a night of passion with Helena in the Hideaway. 3 3 But his antics have been slammed by viewers who have called upon show's producers to step in and have him removed from the villa. Many fans have been left unhappy with the way he disregarded Shakira's feelings and how he continued to say one thing to her and another to Helena as he attempted to bat their feelings off one another. Taking to X - formerly Twitter - one fan grumbled of Harry: "Harry is disgusting." A second went on to pen: "Harry's acting like this and hes…thirty?" Someone else wrote: "Harry.. you lie now but trust your time will come when movie night arrives. "Switching the script on every convo you have is gonna come back to BITEEEEE." "Harry is NOTTTTT the man i thought he'd be, he is a walking, talking RED FLAG," added a fourth. As another insisted both he and Helena should be removed for their antics, saying: "I want Helena and Harry OUT. Out NOW!!!! "Love island producer you know you see knocking the door b****!" In shock scenes tonight blonde air hostess Helena Ford, 29, and semi-pro footballer Harry Cooksley, 30, snuck off for some alone time - leaving their partners reeling. Watch the moment Love Island stars strip off and jump into bed after ditching their partners for the Hideaway The duo were seen planning their rendezvous earlier in the evening and Harry is seen telling Helena to tap his foot on the way out of the bedroom. A source previously told The Sun: 'This is the fastest sleepover in the Hideaway in Love Island's twelve series history - and what a gorgeous pair to do so. 'In the past, producers had to invite Islanders to use the breakout bedroom which meant the love nest was generally not used until couples became more established. 'But producers have changed the rules of the breakout bedroom so it can be used at any time, without an invite. 'It means Helena and Harry could take advantage of the 'no invite needed' and explore their connection. 'The scenes will play out later this week, but bosses are unlikely to show anything too naughty, as is the show's usual approach.' 3

Love Island fans left in shock as Blu and Shea are forced to pick which one of them will be DUMPED in brutal twist - but both refuse to leave
Love Island fans were left in shock during Wednesday's episode as the latest brutal twist was revealed. Following a recoupling, Blue and Shea were left single and at risk of being dumped from the island. A text then explained that the pair would have to pick who between them would leave the villa in a dramatic twist. Blu was quick to state, 'I ain't f***ing leaving', with Shea also making it clear he wasn't willing to leave. Fans were surprised by the new rule, and were left questioning how the boys would make the decision. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. One viewer wrote on social media platform X: 'So like what happens now? Rock, paper, scissors or?'; 'Okay the producers ate that one little thing. They're gonna fight to the death to stay I'm so excited'; 'Got to be a catch to whoever decides to leave surely'; 'BOMBSHELLS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE IMMUNE. Has Love Island forgotten its own rules??' The 12th series of the ITV2 dating show returned to our screens earlier this week and has already seen one dumping. After just 24 hours in the villa, located in Mallorca, motivational speaker Sophie Lee, 29, was booted off the show. Now it's one of the boys that will have to wave goodbye to the rest of the Islanders, which will follow off the back of the arrivals of the latest bombshells Shea, 25, and Remell Mullins, 24. But annoyingly, fans of the programme will have to wait until Friday's instalment to see who ends up leaving the show. Fans were surprised by the new rule, and were left questioning how the boys would make the decision Elsewhere during Thursday's episode, Alima kicked the recoupling off, giving Remell a shot after their earlier chinwag. Toni was next, choosing Conor following a smooch they shared, while Megan stuck with Tommy. Helena went for Harry amid their love triangle with Shakira, who went for Ben after the pair were originally coupled up. Meg also stayed put picking Dejon, leaving Blu and Shea not in a couple. It comes after Author Sophie was only in the villa for 24 hours before she had to leave. Her departure came after the arrival of the first bombshell of the season, American beauty Toni Laites, 24, who decided to steal Ben Holbrough, 23, off Shakira Khan, 22. This meant that Shakira was left single and had to try and find a connection with someone before the next recoupling ceremony. She managed to leave a lasting impression on Harry Cooksley, 30, who decided to come forward to recouple with her, leaving his then-partner Sophie single. It comes after Love Island fans were left in shock after watching three non-coupled-up Islanders snuck off to hideaway during Wednesday's episode. Ben and Shakira , who were originally coupled up, headed to the secret suite for a chat, where he confessed he was still interested in her. Later, Helena Ford, 30, and Harry had a cheeky chat, where they suggested they should 'sneak off in the middle of the night' to the romantic room - just days in to the show. Shakira was later taken back to the Hideaway by Blu where she then shared a sneaky kiss with him, despite choosing Harry over him in Tuesday night's recoupling. Shakira had earlier been left furious when Harry whispered 'hideaway' in air hostess Helena's ear before putting his hand on her leg, before her cheeky antics of her own. The pairing came as a shock to viewers as Harry was chosen by Shakira to couple up with during Tuesday night's dramatic recoupling.
