Stacey Solomon’s experiencing ‘sympathy puberty’ with her little brother

Jade Hayden

We can relate.

The one good thing about getting older is that you’re pretty much guaranteed never to get spots again.

… Except that’s totally not true at all and you definitely do and it’s awful.

All is not lost though because even the greatest among us still suffer from the odd bit of acne every now and then.

In this case, the greatest among us is, of course, Stacey Solomon.

She’s a mum-of-two, she’s a deadly presenter, she’s stunning – basically just the greatest person going ever really.

And she’s broken out in a few spots alongside her brother… or as she likes to call it, “sympathy puberty.”

Been there, girl.

Stacey shared a photo of herself and her little brother, Joshm yesterday saying that she loves him so much, that she seems to be experiencing “sympathy puberty” with him.

She wrote:

“Had the best laugh with my lil bro tonight talking about all things hormone induced and I’m grateful to my spots for making that happen.”

The singer also added ‘Spots are sexy’ and ‘Quarter life puberty.’

Stacey received a lot of praise for her photo from people who applauded her honesty and willingness to show that not everybody can have perfect skin all of the time.

She was also praised for talking to her little brother about puberty and all of the changes that occur in your body during this time.

Stacey has two children herself – 10-year-old Zach and five-year-old Leighton.

She is currently dating presenter and actor Joe Swash.
