STACEY Solomon has sparked rumours of a feud with her Loose Women co-stars after failing to reunite with them at the Baftas.
On Sunday's event at Royal Festival Hall in London, Loose Women stars Charlene White and Judi Love were in attendance alongside show collaborators including Andi Peters and Clara Amfo.
Over the course of the evening, Judi and Charlene were seen rubbing shoulders with other stars including Ant and Dec, Babatunde Aleshe and others they've worked with over the years.
However, Stacey seemingly was removed from any of the friendly interactions, with only pictures of her posing in front of the iconic golden statue before her appearance on stage.
Even with group photos of the cast and crew of Loose Women, Stacey remained conspicuously absent.

Now there's fears there may have been something else behind her absence from the ITV daytime show.
In an Instagram post showing off her stunning look in a black gown, Stacey posed in her garden rather than share pictures from the event, she wrote: "Feeling Beautiful And nervous & excited & honoured
"Off to the BAFTAs to present an award. So grateful to have been asked to do this! But also my mouth is as dry as the Sahara & my tummy is tingling.
"But it’s the F**k it year, so stepping out of the zone I’ve got myself comfortable in is what 2024 is all about! Happy Sunday everyone! Wish me luck"
"If I mess it up let’s all pretend I didn’t yeah?," she added. "Your messages have been SO lovely! Best bunch of mates ever! To the moon and back."
Stacey later hinted her absence from the festivities was down to her own anxiety more than swerving anymore in particular.
"Honestly I know you might think after 15 years of working in telly this wouldn’t phase me anymore," she said in another Instagram story.
"But I can genuinely say I get SO nervous every time. Even just being in a room full of people who inspire me and I aspire to I find extremely nerve wracking.
"I never know what to say to people. I am so very awkward! My comfort zone is at home in my PJs I’m not very showbiz tbh. But I feel super proud that I went and did it. And so grateful to have been asked!"
Stacey had been a regular face on Loose Women since 2016, but stepped back 18 months ago ahead of the birth of her fifth child, daughter Belle.

But although viewers were thrilled to have her back for brief appearances, fears about Stacey leaving Loose Women for good had already grown within weeks.
Stacey's been seen on her own BBC show, Sort Your Life Out, as well as continuing her work as an online mum influencer.
Last week, Linda Robson suggested she wouldn't be coming back at all.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Birds Of A Feather legend Linda said: "She’s not going to be a regular anymore? I don’t think so, but you never know.
"I would love her to come back, she’s a really good Loose Woman - she’s really honest. But I think she’s got too much on.
"She’s got her own series and her and Joe are out in their little house. She’s still really welcome but she’s just so busy."
