Not long till your little pumpkin’s here, Stacey!

HALLOWEEN seems to have come early for Stacey Dooley this year. The television presenter, left and below, opted for a seasonal pumpkin look last week as she went to the shops in an oversized orange puffer jacket that hid her ever-growing baby bump – and matched the autumnal shades of her hair.

But it seems 35-year-old Stacey had a good reason to dress down, as she revealed in an Instagram post: ‘New hobby is continuing to reject maternity wear.’

Stacey announced in August that she was expecting her first child with her Strictly Come Dancing partner Kevin Clifton, 40. And although she might be on trend for the spooky season, I don’t think she can avoid maternity wear for ever.

Still, it’s more flattering than her last TV costume – as a Prawn Cocktail on The Masked Singer.
