She expressed her disappointment with the hard-working team behind Sort Your Life Out, which fell short of Rob Rinder and Rylan Clark’s travel show, after Stacey’s snub at the BAFTAs.
Stacey Solomon’s “out of character” BAFTAs rant caused “horror” to BBC execs, who are worried her “entitled” Instagram video could be a “disaster” for her image. The mum-of-five even divided her usually adoring fan base with her comments, which came to light after her BBC show Sort Your Life Out failed to win at the BAFTAs last week.
The reality star’s reality show, which features her helping people organize their homes and get rid of clutter, was nominated for a BAFTA for Factual Entertainment. However, Stacey was left “devastated” by Rob and Rylan’s Grand Tour’s loss to win the championship.
Stacey couldn’t keep her disappointment under wraps, instead sharing her feelings on Instagram with her followers. And it was then the tide started to turn against Stacey, with some fans and even Stacey herself admitting she didn’t take the loss “gracefully”.
And Stacey’s frank confession isn’t the first time recently that the cracks may be starting to show. With reports of her and husband Joe Swash arguing in the street plus their admission that they’re going to marriage counselling – one BBC exec has hinted the “gloss” is coming off for the broadcaster’s golden girl.
The Mail reports a BBC source said: “Stacey is television gold. She has made herself so appealing to young adults. It’s a BBC priority to attract the 18-to-30 age group and Stacey was the right person to do this, hence why she was given her fly-on-the-wall show. She’s seen as normal, relatable and a good laugh.
There was some horror when she posted her video on Monday morning, she said. It had a very strange feeling about it and felt entitled.
They added that although they accept she was frustrated for her team, other teams “all work hard, too.” They added that the sweet image that powers Stacey’s popularity could be unravelling, which “would be a disaster for the BBC.” The Mirror has contacted Stacey’s rep and the BBC for comment.
The following morning, Stacey self-filmed her now contentious video in her garden at Pickle Cottage. She said, “I’m devastated, let’s be honest. I’m so devastated for our team because I don’t handle it well, don’t take it very gracefully, and take it very seriously.
The Loose Women presenter added: “It’s not an easy show to make… the team works so hard to make it happen, and they so deserve a Bafta. People think making TV is really easy, and it’s not.
“We all pack up a house, and it’s moved into a warehouse and laid out on the floor in seven days.” We go over it in great detail.

OK! magazine reports that Stacey has an “inferiority complex” and has taken recent events to heart. A source told the mag: “The negative comments really upset her, she takes them to heart. She never wants to be seen as ungrateful, because she’s not. She had a really humble upbringing and everything she does, she does to give her kids the best opportunities possible. They are what drives her.”
