STACEY Solomon shared a sweet video of her and seven-year-old son Leighton bathing her newborn baby, Rex.

In the short clip, the Loose Women star softly coos over her third son - who she welcomed partner Joe Swash last month - as she carefully holds him in the baby bath.

Leighton can be seen gently using a cloth to help wash his little brother, as he laughs and giggles with his mum.

Stacey, 29, captioned the video: “He loves his bath... A little weekend wash for Rex.”

Sharing pictures to her Instagram stories, Leighton can also be seen holding a freshly washed Rex in his arms, as he’s swaddled in a fluffy blanket.

The besotted mum wrote: “Bath time was the best today! I can’t stop watching the video I just posted it makes me so happy.”

And Stacey’s followers were quick to compliment the gorgeous moment, as well as comment that little Rex is the “spitting image” of Joe Swash.

One person wrote: “He is the spitting image of Joe xx”, while another said: “Mini Joe.”

Others commented: “Omg he’s joes double” and: “Looks like daddy.”

Along with Rex and Leighton, Stacey is also mother to Zachary, 11.

Former EastEnders actor Joe is already father to son Harry, 12, from a previous relationship.

Following little Rex's earlier than expected arrival, Stacey has been keeping her followers up-to-date as she adapts to life as a mum-of-three.

Stacey and her boyfriend Joe Swash welcomed their son into the world on 23 May, however only publicly announced his name last week.

The Loose Women star wrote at the time: "Rex Toby Francis Swash. Due today, born 23.05.2019 on my Mummy’s birthday.

She continued to explain: Rex because our boys think he sounds like a T-Rex. Francis is Joe’s Nanna’s name and Toby is my Nanna’s name. Its taken us this long to announce the name because for some strange, probably hormone and post birth related, reason I didn’t want to do it until his official due date."

The star has been refreshingly honest about how hard she's found things since giving birth, and opened up about her breastfeeding struggles to her followers.

On Tuesday, Stacey admitted that she hadn't left the house in three weeks and feared she was 'neglecting' her older children as she tackles life with a new baby.
