Stacey Solomon flashes abs after gruelling workout as she issues plea to fans

Stacey Solomon has clearly come into 2025 on a mission to get fit - and she showed off her efforts in a post-workout selfie and she issued a desperate plea to fans

Stacey Solomon began last year saying she was determined to have a "F**k it" year, and she's clearly carrying some of the same energy into 2025. As well as juggling her life as a mum of five with hosting duties on the likes of Sort Your Life Out, Loose Women favourite Stacey is making sure she carves out some much-needed alone time to work on her fitness after a busy family Christmas.

The 35-year-old telly star, who lives in Pickle Cottage in Essex with her husband Joe Swash, shared a snap of herself with her 6million Instagram followers on Sunday (January 5), showing off her toned midriff and legs in a purple gym co-ord.

Last year, the former I'm A Celebrity winner revealed she'd discovered a love exercise with the help of her sister Samantha Stone, a personal trainer, and she's clearly determined to keep it going - with the help of her fans.

Alongside the photo, which was taken in her home gym, Stacey wrote: "Happy Sunday. I got up and went for a run. Proud of me. But also counting on your guys to hold me accountable".

Last February Stacey revealed to fans that she'd had a revelation about the way she'd been prioritising her life in recent years. Addressing her busy calendar and shrinking confidence, she said she'd "been a bit of a mug in some ways", adding, "I’ve turned down opportunities or taken certain paths because people who I thought mattered have wanted it. And it made them happy.

“But I’ve realised the only people who matter are the ones who want to lift you up, support every crazy idea you have, and fill you with confidence and love. Those are the people to keep close. Let the rest go."

One of the major changes she made was getting herself into the well-equipped home gym at her £1.3m Essex country home, with the help of her personal trainer sister Samantha.

Speaking to physiologist and lifestyle expert Oliver Patrick, on The Energy Equation podcast, Stacey revealed that she'd managed to go from dreading a run to loving it, and even felt "horrible" when she skipped a workout or training session. "I’d say the feeling during exercise is ‘I’m going to die’ still, but it’s the feeling afterwards – I just feel stronger, for one," she said.

Amid the recent announcement of a new TV documentary focusing on her life with Joe and the kids - Leighton, Zachary, from Stacey's previous relationship, and Rex, Belle and Rose - Stacey reportedly issued her husband with strict instructions to sort their own life out at Pickle Cottage and keep the home clutter free.

While they've kept tight-lipped about many of new show's details, Stacey did tease fans with the news that it would help them 'get to know them a little more' when it airs this year.
