On Monday, Stacey revealed the name of her fifth child, which has a special tie to her eldest daughter’s nickname, Rose.

Stacey shared that her daughter would “always remind them” of the spring flower bells, but she also shared that she has a special connection to her oldest daughter, Rose.
Disney Princess Belle has a close bond with roses because in the hit movie Beauty and the Beast, an enchanted red flower symbolizes the curse placed on the Beast.
The Beast kept the rose in a glass bell jar and watched the petals fall off as it withered while trying to find true love. At the end of the fairy tale, the Beast reverts to his Prince form when he finds true love with Belle.
Explaining her daughter’s name, Stacey wrote: ‘Belle. Our little Bella. Our beautiful and delicate girl. Who will forever remind us of the snowdrops about to bloom when you bring spring into the world with you?
And a special little connection with your Rose. To the moon and back Bella. Forever and always.’
Stacey isn’t the only person who opted for a Disney-inspired name after Love Island’s Molly-Mae revealed that she had named her first child Bambi.
Her and boyfriend Tommy Fury’s choice of name divided fans and Molly-Mae later addressed the backlash surrounding the nickname.
Despite the negativity, the star expressed how much she loved the name, revealing that it was “beautiful” and “unique,” and that the influencer had loved it for years.
Stacey took to Instagram on Saturday to announce that she had given birth to a baby girl while sharing several adorable snaps of her new arrival.
The birth comes just two months after Stacey revealed she was pregnant, with the former X Factor contestant saying she didn’t know she was pregnant for months.
She wrote: ‘She is here. Our beautiful daughter was born at home with all your brothers and sisters ready to snuggle with you forever and ever.

‘You literally flew into our world… And none of us can believe your thick dark hair that we just can’t get over.
We can’t believe you’re here. Welcome to the world beautiful girl, thank you for the last few months in my tummy, we are looking forward to loving you forever and ever, we are so grateful to be your family.
In one image, Stacey cradled her newborn to her chest as she lay in bed with the baby swaddled in a white blanket.
