However, that didn't stop the Loose Women ladies from showing an unfiltered selfie of her poor eye.

Stacey explained what happened saying: "It's not even glamorous or anything heroic."

Janet quipped: "I didn't even want to ask but I kept looking at your eye."

Stacey continued: "This happened on Sunday and it's getting worse and worse by the day.

"You know when you wrap up in like a blanket or a sleeping bag and you sleigh down the stairs?

"It's completely normal and I took it a step too far, as I normally do and I ended up going straight into the banister at the bottom."

Asked whether men feel pressure to look good the same as women, Stacey said: "I think the pressures are just getting worse and worse, when you think about social media and everybody in Love Island with the perfect bodies.

"I know that even my children, without the Love Island, without the Instagram, Facebook or whatever, even their action figures are all ripped with six packs.

"They look at them and go 'oh mum when can I get a six pack, when can I join the gym? and that scares the life out of me."

Stacey, who has sons Zachary, nine and Leighton, five, also revealed her boyfriend Joe Swash feels the pressure to have a good body.

She said of her presenter beau: "It's funny as well because I often forget that men even hone these insecurities.

"When I first met Joe I think that was the first time I realised 'Oh my God it bothers him about his weight and what he looks like and his figure' and he goes to the gym every single day, he's healthy.
