On tonight’s episode of Sort Your Life Out, Stacey Solomon, and her team helped the Aphabhai-Heer family in Coventry.

Stacey and her team of experts attempted to assist the family in downsizing their staggering clothes collection.

The matriarch of the family, Sheeney, opened up to the Loose Women personality about her past.

She almost had the former X Factor star in tears as she revealed that her first partner abandoned her before she met her current partner, Sohan.

This was after she became pregnant at the age of 17 and she started to accumulate a build-up of clothes ever since.

The contributor admitted: “The relationship wasn’t very nice and I’d be completely honest, he would say I looked like a man.

“So to make myself feel better and more feminine, I’d go out and buy things.”

Stacey seemed to become affected by her words as she emotionally replied: “Sheeney! Oh my God stop it.

“I’m gonna have to climb over your 100 pairs of jeans to give you a hug,”

This comes as fans slated the BBC One show as Stacey seemed to actively get her family involved in the TV production.

She’s usually joined by experts Dilly Carter, Iwan Carrington, and TV carpenter Robert Bent.

But Dilly was seemingly nowhere to be seen as Stacey’s husband Joe Swash helped out his wife on the production.  

However, a number of viewers took to social media to bemoan his involvement.

One viewer claimed on X, formerly known as Twitter: “I can’t stand it when Joe Swash appears on this.”

A second user posted: “I love sort your life out but stop tryna make Joe Swash happen,” stated a second user.

“Over the years Stacey Solomon has grown on me. Seems very caring and sweet. Then she invites Joe on the show. He’s like a fiesta 1.1 with a big exhaust. Loud with no performance,” wrote a third

While a fourth fan added: “I know Joe is Stacey’s partner but does he need to be in each series,” alongside a series of crying with laughter emojis.

A LARGE power outage left millions of people across Chile in darkness on Tuesday.

The power outage affected the South American nation from the northern Arica and Parinacota region to the southern Los Lagos region.

The country’s grid operator said a disruption had occurred in a high-voltage transmission line that carries power from the Atacama Desert to the capital of Santiago.

The National Electrical Coordinator did not say what actually caused the disruption that pushed much of Chile’s power grid into shutdown.

Authorities in Santiago, a city of some 8.4 million people, said there would be no subway service until further notice.

Interior Minister Carolina Toh said hospitals, prisons and government buildings were switching on backup generators to keep essential equipment operating.

In a press conference, Toh urged the public to stay calm and said officials were racing to put the grid back in operation and restore electric service across the country of some 19 million people.

It’s affecting the entire electrical system of the country, she said of the breakdown in the 500-kV backbone transmission line.

Toh said if all areas didn’t return to normal by sunset the government would take emergency measures to avert a crisis.

One of the country’s main electricity distributors, Saesa, which serves more than a million people across Chile, confirmed that all of its customers had experienced the power failure.

Officials said they were evacuating passengers from darkened tunnels and subway stations in Santiago and elsewhere in the country, including the coastal tourist hotspot of Valparaiso.

Videos on social media from all over Chile, a long ribbon of a country stretching 4,300 kilometers (over 2,600 miles) along the southern Pacific coast, showed chaos at intersections with no functioning traffic lights, people having to use their mobile phones as torches in the underground metro and police dispatched to help evacuate office buildings.

Transport Minister Juan Carlos Muoz urged people to stay home, saying its not a good time to go out since we have a transport system that is not operating normally. At the very most, he said, just 27% of city traffic lights are working.

Mobile phone services also blinkered offline in parts of the country. Authorities at Santiago International Airport said terminals had switched to emergency power to keep flights operating as usual.
