Stacey Solomon says photographers following her children to family events 'should be illegal' and make her feel 'stalked'

Stacey Solomon, 37, told reporters that photographers have stationed themselves outside her Essex home and followed her family to private events, saying the behaviour crosses a line she did not agree to when she entered public life. She acknowledged that being photographed in public was "fair game" but insisted that doorstepping her children at family occasions served no public interest.

Solomon said the intrusion has forced her to reconsider what she shares on social media going forward.

The comments came ahead of the return of her BBC reality series 'Stacey & Joe', which follows the family at their Pickle Cottage home.

'The safety of my family comes before absolutely everything,' she warned, hinting she may take action if the behaviour continues.
