Stacey, who took home the Strictly Come Dancing trophy, opened up about her first gig in the West End.
She made her on-stage debut starring as Jenny in the thriller play 2:22 – A Ghost Story.
The TV presenter described her character as a woman on "the edge of an existential crisis."
"She's just had a baby," Stacey explained. "The baby is still on the boob. She's knackered. It's all going on."

Stacey, who welcomed her first child with partner Kevin Clifton last year, said she could certainly relate to what Jenny was dealing with.
But despite juggling parenthood with her busy career, Stacey didn't want to shy away from taking on the challenge of her first acting role.
She said: "I thought, you know what? If I can try anything, I can try this…"
The interview then came to a screeching halt when Roman had to rush her out of the studio.
