On Wednesday (June 10), Stacey took to her Instagram Story and revealed Zachary’s braces had officially been removed after two years.

Sitting next to Zachary, Stacey said: “Guess who’s got his braces off after two years?!”

Gushing over her son she said: “Oh Zach you look so handsome!” Zachary replied: “Stop doing that,” to which Stacey apologised.

“Feel happier about smiling now. It feels soooooooooooooo strange though. And I feel like I look so different but not much has changed. Weird.” [Sic]

Zachary’s followers quickly flooded the comments section with compliments. One person said: “Very handsome man and look at that smile Zach! Your confidence is shining.”

How old was Stacey when she had Zach?

Stacey Solomon was 17 when she fell pregnant with son Zach with her childhood sweetheart Dean Cox. Dean was a car worker and the pair met when she was studying performing arts at Havering College.

Although, it wasn’t too last, as the couple broke up before Stacey’s son Zachary was born, when she was 18.

The Loose Women star has opened up about the stigma that comes with being a young mum before. She told the panel on the ITV show back in 2018: “I always felt the stigma [more] of being a young mum and any of those doubts that me alone wasn’t enough for my child came from within rather than from anybody else.”

Stacey added: “I was more conscious of people thinking ‘look at that kid with a kid.’ I don’t even know if people knew if I was a single parent or not.”
