Stacey Solomon has left fans in tears with her thoughtful gift to a young widower and his family on Sort Your Life Out.
During the season four premiere of the BBC show, Stacey visited Craig and his two daughters — 6-year-old Merywen and 4-year-old Wren — whose house had become over-cluttered after losing his wife Lois to cancer four years ago.
Following her death, Craig had struggled to balance being a single dad to his children and working, leading to the house becoming overwhelmed by possessions.
The decluttering process was an emotional one for the family, as they needed to get go of around 50% of their possessions. However, it was Stacey's decision to turn a novel written by Lois into a book for the girls which left viewers emotional.

After the family had decluttered their house, Stacey showed Craig and the girls around their now tidy home before presenting the special gift.
What to Read Next
"I know how much you girls love reading," Stacey told the little girls, before the camera panned to a book titled 'Elira and the Rotten-Tooth Brats' which had been written by Lois.
She continued: "This is a very special book because your mummy wrote this book... So you can read mummy's story whenever you want to."
The gift left the family emotional, with a stunned Craig declaring: "This is beautiful."

Viewers at home were also left emotional by Stacey's thoughtful gift, sharing their reactions on X (formerly known as Twitter).
"I am not okay after Stacey turned Lois' story into a book for the kids," one person wrote, while another added: "Oh god I'm crying already #sortyourlifeout."
"I'm a blubbing mess after that but what a beautiful episode, a third person commented. "Gorgeous kiddies and that lovely man learning to live again. Bravo @StaceySolomon & the whole team."
Sort Your Life Out series four airs on BBC One and iPlayer.
