“I love him so much… having a little sniffle (actually sob). I’m going to try & have an early night. I haven’t slept since Tuesday night.

Stacey has been worrying about her grandmother all week, forcing her to come off social media for a while.

She posted: “Sorry I’ve been so quiet, my Grandma isn’t very well.

“Last night was really scary but looking much more positive this morning so we are all hoping and praying for the best…”

She continued: “We aren’t allowed to visit obviously because of lockdown and as much as we are desperate to give her a cuddle, we hope we won’t need to visit.

“We are thinking of you Grandma ALWAYS and hoping and praying that when this lockdown is over, we can safely come and celebrate your birthday with you next month.”

Despite her worries, Stacey has continued to share her household chores with fans.

She started the day off by making her bed before filling up son Leighton’s hand sanitiser bottle.

The presenter is also set to appear on Loose Women today.
