Stacey Solomon has faced a wave of online criticism after an emotional video posted the morning after the Bafta TV Awards, where she expressed devastation that her show Sort Your Life Out did not win. The 35-year-old, known for her cheerful demeanour, admitted she was 'not handling it very well' and 'not taking it very gracefully', sparking a split reaction among fans.
Some praised her honesty, but others accused her of being a 'bad loser' and claimed she was 'showing her true colours'. The backlash has reportedly left Solomon worried about her career, with a source telling OK! magazine that she has a 'fear of losing it all' and battles imposter syndrome, partly due to her humble upbringing and X Factor origins.
Solomon's sister Jemma also weighed in on Instagram, criticising the Bafta judges and suggesting a public vote would have yielded a different result, which many felt only intensified the controversy. The negative comments have taken a toll on Solomon, who is said to be 'worried it could all be over'.
Despite the turmoil, Sort Your Life Out has been renewed for a sixth series, and Solomon remains a prominent TV figure. She has previously spoken about her constant fear of financial insecurity, saying she always thinks 'something’s going to go wrong at some point' even when things are comfortable.
