Stacey Solomon has admitted that after nine years, she has finally moved her two sons into their own bedroom.
Taking the Instagram to share the news, the mum admitted that while she was aware many would criticise, she didn’t care.
“So, last night I spent the first night without my children coming into my room and sleeping with me in nine years.
“I’m sure a lot of people will have something to say about that but I honestly don’t care. I love sleeping with my children and would do it forever if I could.
“However, I have come to the realisation that as much as I love it, I also value my sleep, and relationship and I know that with extra special people coming into my life there simply isn’t enough room for us all and everybody benefits from a good nights sleep.”

Admitting that she found the transition tough, Stacey said that it was the right thing for her boys.
“So, as daunting as it was for me (selfishly), I was an even bigger change for the boys.
“As happy as I am, I can’t help but feel a little sad that that’s probably the first day of the rest of my child free bed time life.”
The mum’s post was met mostly with support from other parents who are having similar worries.
Many also praised Stacey for her honest post despite the negative attention it may have attracted.
“You’re an awesome mum and no matter what people say, there is nothing wrong with sleeping with your kids.”
