Stacey Solomon, 35, hits back after being branded 'horse-mouth' by troll as  Sort Your Life Out star shares sweary video

While she highlighted the comment as an example of mean remarks some people feel they can make, Solomon shared a light-hearted reaction, while her protective driver, Steve, seemed to have a more angered response.

Steve dropped an "F-bomb" when Solomon informed him that someone had written "horse mouth" under one of her Instagram posts.

Seeming to take the remark in her stride, the Sort Your Life Out presenter filmed herself from the back of a car Steve was driving.

She explained to fans: "I usually don't read my messages or reply to many. I read none of the nice ones. I don't read the horrible ones.

"I just like to get past them, but this message is like literally staring me in the face - it's at the top of my comments on my last story.

"I couldn't get away from it, and I'll be quite honest with you, I don't know if I'm supposed to be offended or take it as a compliment because I actually think horses are really pretty."

She then called to her driver to share the troll's comment with him, adding: "Steve, someone commented on my picture.

"[They said] horse with a little horse emoji." Springing to the mother-of-five's defence, Steve asked: "What, a picture of you?"

He furiously added: "Who is that f***king person?" prompting Solomon to laugh at his anger.

"Steve ain't having it!" she said, channeling her signature positive nature to joke: "Perhaps it's a compliment!"

While Solomon is known for her sweet and wholesome approach, she isn't a stranger to speaking her mind online on occasion.

Last month, she came under fire after she shared her frustrations about her BBC series, Sort Your Life Out, missing out on a Bafta after being nominated for two.

The Factual Entertainment accolade instead went to Rob and Rylan's Grand Tour, while Entertainment Performance went to Joe Lycett for his show Late Night Lycett on Channel 4.

Speaking the following day on social media, Solomon admitted she was "upset and devastated" at missing out on an award.

The response was deemed "entitled" and out-of-character by fans, with the BBC also understood to have been taken by surprise.

A source stated: "Stacey is seen as normal, relatable and a good laugh. So when she put her video up on Monday morning, there was some horror here. It felt entitled and was all very out of character."

Speaking to MailOnline, they went on: "Admittedly, she did say she came out to share her frustration in support of her behind-the-scenes team whom she wanted to pay tribute to.

"But there are other behind-the-camera teams on other shows who all work hard, too. You can't wonder if the gloss might start to come off for Stacey. It would be a disaster for the BBC, they are hanging so much on her."

The comments followed Solomon's video, in which she said, without her usual sunny demeanor: "We didn’t win a Bafta.

"And I know I'm supposed to take it gracefully like a champ but I'll be honest, I'm devastated!

"I'm not handling it very well, I'm not taking it very gracefully - I'm devastated! I'm devastated for our whole team, like I'm so gutted for our team.

"Everyone got dressed up and was really hopeful, I think, because they work so hard. It's not an easy show to make… and they so deserve the Bafta. The Sort Your Life Out team deserved a Bafta and I'm devastated."
