Stacey Solomon talking about her stretch marks is the best thing you’ll read all day

Amazing.

Stacey Solomon is always pretty open and honest when it comes to her life.

She’s particularly amazing when it comes to her body, and her body image.

Stacey is not afraid to show off her lumps, bumps and imperfections – all the things that make her who she is.

In fact, just yesterday, the expectant mum posted a bikini snap of herself from behind on instagram.

The picture shows a relaxed looking Stacey sitting by the edge of a swimming pool (we’re jealous!)

She captioned the snap:

“I honestly love how much stretch marks shine in the sun! Natural glitter. Photo courtesy of Zachary!”

Zachary is her son, by the way.

Fans and followers of Stacey were quick to comment on the post, applauding her for loving her own body.

“Stacey love I’ve got stretchys and I haven’t even had a bambino yet!!! Its years of yo yo dieting… I love my silver lines!! You embrace them,” wrote one fan.

Another said: “Good on you! I’ve got stretch marks from my second pregnancy…. wore my bikini with pride and showed them off when baby was 7 months!”

Another follower wrote a lengthy message, thanking Stacey for her post:

“We need more posts like this. My stomach is absolutely covered in them (second pregnancy adding to it) and sometimes it’s so depressing. Seeing more people embrace them is soooo important and comforting! Well done you for having the balls and confidence to do so. Imagine being a teenager with stretch marks and seeing this post?! What a confidence boost.”

We have to admit, we totally agree.

Bravo to Stacey Solomon for owning her body, and loving it!
