A live television interview on March 6, 2012 caused Stacey Solomon to break down. During her appearance on “This Morning”, the subject of photographs featuring her smoking while seven months pregnant was discussed.
The X Factor singer was recently caught smoking and photographers were there to snap a picture. The issue has caused outrage amongst the public and caused Foxy Bingo to strip her of title of 2011 Mum of the Year.
A host of This Morning asked if she had considered the harmful effects of smoking to her unborn child and Solomon had this to say: "At the end of the day, nothing that I can say makes it right.
"All I can say is that from the day I found out that I was pregnant, I have tried my best to give up. I completely understand why people would be angry, because for some people it's uncomprehendable.
"I understand that it's a selfish thing to do, so I don't think the comments are unjustified, although I do think some are a bit harsh."
"'As soon as you get pregnant, you think you need so stop. I did smoke between 5 and 10 a day, but I completely cut down and from there on I have been trying to stop.”
"I'm smoking between 1 and 3 a day, if that... I just thought I would be able to quit. And some days I've done really, really well and had none but there are some days when I have had some. I'm doing my best to just go without, but sometimes it's not just as easy to cut it out."
"I don't condone it in any way and I think it's important that people know that. I don't want people to think it's OK or that I think it's OK."
