Stacey Solomon Pregnant!
May is going to be an exciting time for Essex girl Stacey Solomon as she is expecting her second child, a younger brother or sister for her current son Zac who is so excited that as Stacey has said “He checks my bump every day to make sure it’s still there!”.
Though she does know the sex of the baby she isn’t giving anything away has when she was asked she said “I’m not telling! My Mum says I’ll jinx it if I do, and knowing me I’ll tell everyone and then it’ll come out the opposite!”
She has revealed her pregnancy cravings at the moment are pickles and she has compared her body to ex spice girl, Posh, by saying “Victoria Beckham seems to walk out of the hospital two days after giving birth as skinny as ever! Everyone knew I was pregnant at three months, I’m so big now, but I know it’s going to take ages to get my body back,”
As well as a baby on the way she also has her first album on the way very soon too! She has described it by saying “It’s just a lovely chilled-back acoustic live loungey sort of album,”
“Exactly the sort of music I want to be doing. We’ve delayed the release of the first single though because I can’t be prancing around and recording videos and things whilst I’ve still got my bump!”

The Vow
Of course this week cupid was in his spotlight as it was Valentine’s day. And a new Romanic film also came out called The Vow which stars Channing Tatum and Rachel Mcadams as the main characters.
The plot follows a man called Leo who tries to win back the love of his wife Paige after an accident erases her memory.
Tatum has explained that many people would be able to relate to this film by saying “You don’t just need some horrible accident to not really know someone in a relationship, you can kind of grow apart and they can not recognise them and to see somebody try so hard to get back to that is cool.”
And he is also happy this story is told ” through the guy’s perspective,”
Adams on the other hand has said that she was a bit wary of the on screen relationship with Tatum saying “I was worried we might not [have onscreen chemistry], because we were more like brother and sister, like buds,”
“[But] Channing is very outgoing, very kind and a lot of fun to work with.”
The Vow is in cinema’s now.
