‘Gutted’ Stacey Solomon launches into rant over BAFTAs snub – ‘I’m not taking it well’

Stacey Solomon revealed she was ‘devastated’ after losing out on a BAFTA TV Award for her BBC One show, Sort Your Life Out, as she went on a rant on social media

Stacey Solomon admitted she was ‘devastated’ after losing out on a BAFTA TV Award over the weekend. Stacey was nominated for Entertainment Performance for her show, Sort Your Life Out, and the BBC One show was nominated for Factual Entertainment but lost out to Rob and Rylan’s Grand Tour.

The TV presenter returned to her social media this morning to share her heartbreak over losing out on an award. Rocking a Nike sweatshirt and blue shorts, the star shared an update while gardening, telling followers: “Good morning from the veg patch, about to do the morning water. We didn’t win a BAFTA and I know I’m supposed to take it gracefully like a champ but I’ll be honest I’m devastated.”

She added: “I’m not handling it very well, I’m not taking it very gracefully. I’m devastated for our whole team like I’m so gutted for our team. Everyone got dressed up and were really hopeful because I think because they work so hard.

“It’s not an easy show to make, Sort Your Life Out, and the team work so hard to make it happen and they so deserve a BAFTA. The Sort Your Life Out team deserve a BAFTA and I’m devastated.

I’m not saying that everyone else didn’t deserve their BAFTAs, they absolutely did. People think making TV is really easy and it’s not so everyone deserves recognition but I’m just gutted for the whole Sort Your Life Out family because I do feel like they deserve a BAFTA, I’m going to say. I’m gutted.”

She went on to share the hard work involved in creating Sort Your Life Out. The team has seven days to pack up an entire house into a warehouse before it’s laid out on the floor to be organised ‘meticulously’.

“We make sure it doesn’t get chucked away. We donate, we recycle, we resell things and put it all back and put in systems to help families move forwards,” Stacey explained.

“The families give up so much to be on the show, they deserve that away. It’s so hard to let someone into your house when you’re going through a really difficult time and you know there’s going to be people out there that will judge but you need the help also.

“The families just…” she added before showcasing her frustration by shaking the hose around before laughing.

Stacey gave a shoutout to the cast and crew of the show, telling them they’re the “best people I know” before telling fans how proud she is to be part of the programme.

“Rant over,” she joked in the caption as she returned to her morning gardening.

Along with the two Sort Your Life Out nominations, Loose Women – which has Stacey on as a panellist – was nominated for Daytime Award against Morning Live, Richard Osman’s House of Games and Clive Myrie’s Caribbean Adventure.
