Stacey Solomon and Joe Swash suffered a fright after rushing their son Rex to hospital over the weekend.

The couple, who are currently expecting their second child together, explained that their two-year-old had a nasty fall while in their garden on Sunday and needed emergency treatment. 

In her Instagram stories, Stacey explained on Monday: ‘We had a nightmare yesterday. Rex fell over in the garden and we were like, “Up you get”. Then we looked and it was not an “up you get” situation.

‘He hurt his lip so we took him into A&E and he had some little butterfly strips put on. I’m going back today to get him proper stitches, because it’s in a really awkward place.’ 

She added: ‘But he was so good and he didn’t make a sound. He was just like: “Yeah, fix it,” to the doctor. But he was so good.’ 

The Loose Women presenter then revealed that her fiance Joe didn’t handle it as well as the toddler, turning the camera to him and saying: ‘Joe on the other hand…’

The former EastEnders actor shook his head and admitted: ‘Honestly, when the kids are hurt I panic like nobody’s business.’

Stacey revealed: ‘He had to leave the room and he was crying. Bless your soul. I’ll be looking after Joe today more than Rex – I love you.’

Just last Friday, Rex had his first day at nursery and, naturally, Stacey was an emotional wreck.

‘OMG my hormones weren’t ready today,’ she told her followers.

‘Oh pickle… you can stop growing up now pleeaaassseee. We love you to the moon and back baby boy.’
