UK reality star continues to share 'real' photos post-pregnancy

British media personality Stacey Solomon has again been praised for sharing realistic images of her appearance post-birth.

Solomon, 29, is currently holidaying with her three children and partner in the Maldives, sharing photos on Instagram. One depicts her holding her youngest boy Rex in the air while sitting on the beach, while middle child Leighton plays in the shores of the beach in the background.

While it's a relatively normal image of a family playing at the beach, Solomon has received plenty of positive feedback for not editing or trying to conceal the appearance of her body months after giving birth.

"So beautiful @staceysolomon love that [you're] not afraid to be who you are," wrote one follower.

"Absolutely BLOODY GORGEOUS! What a woman! What a mommy! What a baby," added another.

A third hailed Solomon an inspiration: "I love this photo - so natural it warms my heart. You are a modern-day inspiration Stacey. Thank you for being you!"

During her pregnancy with Rex, Solomon was similarly hailed for showing the reality of pregnancy, which we rarely see on social media.

She posted an image of her pregnant belly sprouting long black hairs, writing, "I think I'm pregnant with a Furby. I need to know… Did anyone else's belly just suddenly get covered in fur?"

The mum was praised again shortly after the birth of Rex, when she shared a photo of her holding the newborn while crying and covered in blood following his delivery.

"Wow what a beautifully powerful picture! I'm thrilled for you both," commented one fan.

"I love this photo more than any photo on Instagram," added another.
