They were once the inseparable Essex power duo — Stacey Solomon and Sophie “Mrs Hinch” Hinchliffe, two Instagram queens who built empires out of spotless homes, cheerful videos, and that warm, relatable “mum next door” energy. They rose together, laughed together, worked together… and in 2022, Sophie even stood beside Stacey as a bridesmaid.
But now?
Those glossy smiles have shattered — replaced by a silent rift so deep that insiders say Stacey is losing sleep over it.
And the truth behind the fallout is far more explosive than anyone expected.
A Sparkly Friendship Broken by Something No One Wants to Admit
People close to the pair insist the drift didn’t begin with a screaming match or betrayal.
It began with something colder… and far more dangerous in the influencer world:
Contracts. Competition. Cash.
Both women dominate the multimillion-pound “cleanfluencer” market.
Tesco. Asda. Amazon. Home Bargains.
Every brand wants them — and the money on the table is enormous.
One friend close to Sophie didn’t mince words:
“She thought Stacey was genuine. She didn’t realise Stacey was playing a completely different game.”
But Stacey’s supporters say that accusation cuts her deeply.
An insider on Stacey’s side insisted:
“This paints her as calculating — and that destroys everything she’s built.”
Stacey’s Private Fear: ‘This Could Kill My Career’
Publicly, Stacey keeps smiling.
Privately? Insiders say she’s spiralling.
A close friend revealed:
“She pretends it doesn’t bother her… but she is absolutely devastated.”
Another said:
“Stacey’s brand is warmth, humour, kindness.
Rumours that she’s cold or ruthless? That’s dangerous for her.”
Last week, after backlash over affiliate links, Stacey posted a shaken confession to fans — hinting that online cruelty has been “getting to her.”
Behind the screen, she is reportedly terrified she is losing control of the narrative.
From Daily Voice Notes to Total Silence
These two women once shared everything — work, motherhood moments, family time, off-camera jokes.
Voice notes every morning.
Playdates with the kids.
Collaborations that fans adored.
Now?
Nothing.
Not a text.
Not a call.
Just months of icy distance.
Their final appearance together was back in 2023 on Sort Your Life Out.
A source close to the situation said:
“People grow apart… but the fact this story won’t die is what hurts Stacey most.”
Mrs Hinch Retreats — While Stacey Races Ahead
While Stacey’s career accelerates — more TV gigs, booming deals — Sophie has stepped away from the spotlight after a brutal year.
She lost her father.
She received a life-changing autism diagnosis.
She admitted the internet’s bullying has battered her confidence.
In Fabulous magazine, Sophie confessed:
“People look at you and assume you’re fine. You’re not.”
Despite their shared experiences, the pressure seems to have pushed them further apart instead of bringing them together.
A Frozen Friendship — And No Sign of a Thaw
Fans dream of a Christmas reunion — a cosy Essex catch-up, a tearful apology, maybe a hug on Instagram that solves everything.
But insiders are blunt:
“That friendship is frozen stiff. Don’t expect it to melt anytime soon.”
And as Stacey’s star keeps rising, whispers are growing that Sophie is being left behind… something that may be adding even more frost to an already cold divide.
Two Icons. One Industry. A Battle No One Saw Coming.
What started as a picture-perfect friendship has dissolved into the influencer world’s most heartbreaking cold war — fought not with words, but with silence, hurt, and fear.
Both women are adored.
Both are exhausted.
Both are carrying far more than fans will ever see.
Because behind the spotless houses and smiling selfies…
real life is never picture-perfect.
