The Loose Women star shared an Instagram post in the midst of the UK heatwave on Tuesday, revealing local children had come over to use her swimming pool after their school was closed.

‘Was planning on doing some wedding prep in between but I’m throwing that out the window in this heat. I’ll try starting tomorrow.’
As evening drew in Stacey revealed the party was still going at Pickle Cottage pool at 8:15pm, sharing a sweet snap of Rose, as she wrote:
‘I’ve got nothing done today but the kids have had the best day. And honestly it’s been far to hot to function. Some of them are still going strong singing Christmas songs on the hottest day on record.’
