It has been an emotional week for Stacey as she broke down in tears on Friday after she was gifted a special book from small companies.
The TV presenter admitted she ‘hasn’t stopped crying’ as she treated her Instagram followers to a peek inside the thoughtful present.
Decorated with the title: ‘Stacey… just a little thank you’, the book was filled with personalised letters and notes from family-friendly businesses amid the UK’s second lockdown.
The mother-of-three grew emotional as she said: ‘Now I’ve got to stop reading this book. Thank you I love it.’
Stacey highlighted that the latest lockdown had a negative effect on the growth of certain companies, as she added: ‘I know there’s so many small businesses that I haven’t gotten round to mentioning that really need help at the moment, so I’m just going to keep sharing as many as I can.
‘Maybe when small business really kindly offer to send us gifts, I can put it in a competition.
‘So I can share their page and competition and also give other people a chance to win that kind of stuff. Anyways, love you loads!’
