Stacey Solomon has spoken out after social media trolls accused her of 'flaunting her wealth' this week.
Stacey, 34, recently jetted off to Jamaica after surprising her entire family with the dream getaway during the festive season.
Sharing a video of her littlest family members opening a letter which read 'we're going to Jamaica', Stacey revealed she would be taking her entire family across the world, adding that she never thought she'd 'be able to do this'.

"A special Christmas... For the first time ever we got to surprise our families for Christmas," she wrote.
"Never felt more grateful & lucky. Not in my wildest dreams did I ever think I’d be able to do this. 20 of us, 10 hours later & we have made it to paradise.
"Merry Christmas Everyone. Lots of love from ALL of us."

Despite the beautiful gesture, Stacey's video - which she shared on Instagram - was hit with some negativity from followers, with some questioning whether it should be shared.
One person wrote: "I just wonder, when lots of people are struggling financially to even get through Christmas, whether this really needs to be shared. I think people forget that posting everything on social media is optional."
While another said: "Why do u think people need to see this when the cost of living in Britain is hitting everyone so hard and people have hard the worst Christmas... If I could afford half of what u could I wouldn’t be bragging about it... and yes we are more than hard working people with 3 babies trying to get by. [sic]"
And another commented: "It’s a disgusting display of wealth while everyone in the country is struggling."

Many of Stacey's followers hit back at the trolls, rushing to the presenter's defence.
One wrote: "I don't understand people's jealousy and nastiness over a couple who work their backsides off to give their families everything they can."
And another said: "Am I the only person who looks at this and thinks aww look how happy the kids are? Let's stop attacking people with more than us."

Tyla has reached out to Stacey's reps for comment.
The mum-of-five later shared her own post, explaining she was 'letting go of negativity' moving into 2024.
"I’m so grateful for this platform & all of the happiness and friendship it brings," she wrote.
"I can’t wait to share another year with you, and I hope I can bring a smile or some comfort in to your 2024.

"... It’s definitely time to let go of the negativity or those people trying to put you down and GO AND DO YOU! You deserve it. Let this be YOUR year. And say f**k it to anyone or anything that pulls you away from the love & happiness you deserve."
