Stacey Solomon has shared the heartwarming moment her eldest daughter Rose met her younger sister Belle for the first time.

The Sort Your Life Out presenter, 33, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share the sweet exchange with her 5.5 million followers, days after welcoming her fifth child, her third with her husband Joe Swash.

In the video, 15-month-old Rose beamed as Solomon placed the newborn on her lap before she began cuddling and kissing her younger sister’s cheek.

The toddler giggled and pointed out baby Belle’s “feet” as the Loose Women star praised her for being a “good girl” with her new sibling.

In the caption accompanying the clip, Solomon wrote that her “whole heart ached” for her daughters, adding that the moment was more special than she ever imagined.

She penned: “When Rose met Belle. More than my heart could have ever imagined. My whole heart aches for them and the adventures that are to come.”

Sharing two quotes, she continued: “Sister. She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway.

“She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling, even in the dark – Barbara Alpert.

“When sisters stand shoulder to shoulder, who stands a chance against them? – Pam Brown.”

After sharing the post, the star was inundated with messages from fans and friends who branded the moment “cuteness overload”.

In response to the love shared online, Solomon wrote in the comments section: “Your comments are making me cry, these hormones I tell you!

“Seeing all of the sister comments to each other is EVERYTHING love you all! And Love you Jem @label.lady.1 my dear sister”.

The former X Factor star shares Belle, Rose and son Rex, two, with Swash, 41.

She also has sons Zach, 13, and Leighton, nine, from previous relationships while Swash is dad to son Harry, 15, who he welcomed with his ex-fiancée Emma Sophocleous.
