Stacey Solomon, 33, has emotionally responded to fans after she lost out to the National Television Award for Factual Show to Paul O'Grady's For The Love Of Dogs.

The Loose Women star was sat among the team from her organising show Sort Your Life Out at the NTAs on Tuesday night as they patiently waited to find out if they would walk away with the gong for best factual show.

The mother-of-five looked content, however, when it was announced that the late Paul O'Grady's For The Love Of Dogs had taken the win.

After the ceremony, Stacey took to her Instagram story alongside husband Joe Swash to emotionally respond to her loss.

Stacey told her fans: "I didn't win, I'm glad I practiced my gracious loser face", before Joe cut in: "It was a good speech as well, you all missed out on such a good acceptance speech!"

She went on: "I didn't even practice my speech, I practised my gracious loser face for a long time now, and you said I did well!"

Turning more emotional, Stacey said: "I love Paul O'Grady, I was lucky enough to meet him, and he was the most incredible human so I couldn't have lost to a better person."
