Stacey Solomon had to step away from the camera, overwhelmed with emotion, while filming her show ‘Sort Your Life Out’ as she assisted a family from Leeds in decluttering their home. The TV star was moved to tears when helping Ben and Lynda Brearly-Baird, along with their five-year-old daughter Charlotte, tackle their incredibly cluttered house, which included a garage jam-packed from floor to ceiling.
Among the items they had to sort through at the warehouse were an astonishing 53 tool boxes, 239 scarves, and 619 pieces of wood. In a particularly touching moment, Lynda, who has been diagnosed with incurable breast cancer, shared with Stacey her intention to declutter to make a positive change for her family.
“So this is a box I bought before and then I’ve just been (adding to it).”

She continued, revealing her plans to leave messages for Charlotte’s future milestones: “I’ve also got a notebook that random thoughts have come into my head that I’d probably say to her when she’s a teenager, when she’s a bit older, and things like that… My aim is to do something for her wedding day…or if she ever has children, if I was there, this is what I’d be thinking to you,” leading to Stacey’s emotional reaction, as per the Express.
“The worst fear for me was when I was first found out, Charlotte was still quite young, is that she won’t remember me. I want her to remember me,” tearfully disclosed the guest. Stacey, trying to provide comfort, reassured her: “There’s something so beautiful and positive about what you’re doing here.”
Following this heart-wrenching moment, Stacey was seen on camera, visibly upset, as she reflected: “I’ve never gone through a section where somebody is aware that there’ll be memories they’re going to miss. I don’t want to get upset because I feel like really that’s not my job, like I’m here to help this family, and it’s not happening to me, it’s happening to them,” before being overwhelmed by emotion and burying her head in her hands.
Apologetically, Stacey sobbed: “Sorry, it’s not about me. I’m sorry,” struggling with the resonance of the situation. “I’m just finding it really difficult. Charlotte’s the same age as my little boy. I just think, oh, god,” she wept, expressing the universal pain of such a prospect.
“There’s nothing worse is there. I’m so sorry,” she cried, stepping away from the camera to regain her composure.
Stacey wasn’t the only one deeply moved, as viewers at home shared their own emotional responses. One viewer wrote on Twitter (now X): “Oh Stacey, I was holding it together until you went. Such a lovely gift to give this family in an unimaginably horrible situation.”
“@StaceySolomon Just cried with you. What a beautiful family and omg little Charlotte is adorable; she’s a very kind special lady. I’m in bits already. Life is so cruel. Time is a gift #sortyourlifeout,” another viewer shared, deeply moved by the emotional scenes. Another added their voice, writing: “Now this is hard making a memory box. Life can be so unfair #sortyourlifeout.”
A third expressed their feelings: “Oh, Stacey got so emotional. She’s so empathetic. This family’s story is so sad because they’re such a lovely couple and the daughter is a little star. #SortYourLifeOut,” while a fourth remarked on the poignant moment.
A fifth person reflected on their personal connection to the show’s theme: “Oh blooming heck this episode’s got me a mess. My Mum got diagnosed when I was 38 and mercifully is absolutely fine now. The notebook for her little girl has broken me #sortyourlifeout.”
And a sixth commented on the heart-wrenching preparation made by a mother for her daughter: “Doing a memory box for her daughter just incase she doesn’t see her grow up = wow sad #sortyourlifeout.”
