Stacey Solomon brands herself the 'worst wife ever' amid Joe's ill health as she shares own struggle

Stacey Solomon has told her fans that she must be the "worst wife ever" as she failed to show sympathy for her husband's bout of ill health. The Loose Women star revealed on Sunday (March 26) that Joe Swash had been in bed with 'man flu' leaving her solo with their three young children.

In an image posted to her Instagram Story, the couple's little one's Rex, Rose and newborn Belle could all be seen wearing matching outfits.
