Stacey Solomon, the beloved former panellist on the daytime show Loose Women, is unlikely to return due to her busy schedule. After giving birth to her fifth child in February 2023, she stepped away from her regular appearances on the show. Her co-star, Linda Robson, revealed that Stacey’s hectic life, including a thriving career on Renovation Rescue and raising five children, has made it challenging for her to commit to regular appearances on Loose Women. This disappointing news has left fans wondering about Stacey’s future on the panel, as Linda confirmed that she will not be a regular panellist for the time being.
Despite speculation, Stacey’s husband Joe Swash had previously not ruled out the possibility of having another child, hinting at a potential change in their family dynamics. However, with Stacey’s current commitments and busy schedule, a return to Loose Women as a full-time panellist seems unlikely. The news of her departure from the show comes after Stacey’s extended break following the birth of her daughter Belle and her subsequent return to work on other television projects. Stacey, who first joined Loose Women in 2016, quickly became a fan favourite, but her absence from the show has raised questions about her future in the entertainment industry.
Amidst rumours that Stacey had “outgrown” Loose Women and might be considering a departure from the show to focus on her own projects, ITV issued a statement refuting these claims. They expressed their excitement to welcome Stacey back on the show, suggesting that her absence was not permanent. Despite her return to the studio in late 2023, Stacey revealed that her schedule had been overwhelming due to her multiple TV projects and the demands of raising a newborn. The rumour mill has been in overdrive regarding Stacey’s status on Loose Women, with fans eagerly awaiting news of her potential return to the panel.
Stacey’s co-star, Linda Robson, expressed her admiration for Stacey as a Loose Woman and her honesty on the show, but acknowledged that her busy schedule may prevent her from becoming a regular panellist again. The Essex-born star’s popularity has only grown since her debut on the show, making her absence all the more noticeable for fans. The possibility of Stacey “outgrowing” Loose Women and pursuing other opportunities in the entertainment industry has only fueled speculation around her future plans. As the dust settles on Stacey’s absence, fans will have to wait to see if she will return to her role on Loose Women, or if she will continue to focus on her successful television career and family life.
