Stacey Dooley has revealed that she brought her eight-month-old daughter to a brothel while filming a docu series about sex work.
The 38-year-old BBC broadcaster spoke about juggling with a work and lifdalans during a panel discussion with Emma Barnett at the Hay Literary Festival in Wales.
Dooley’s daughter and partner Kevin Clifton, who she met during her stint on Strictly Come Dancing, comes with her when filming shoots for her documentaries.
“There has not been that child has not been,” Dooley told the panel.
She went on, according to De Telegraaf: ‘When she was eight months old, we had this performance in the diary to go to the United States to make a documentary about this legal brothel in Nevada.
‘I had signed the contract a bit and was like: oh, she will be eight months, that will be fine. Anyway, the journey comes, and I don’t feel comfortable to leave her behind, so I take my eight -month -old child to this brothel in Nevada.
“I have to ask the sheriff for special permission, because she is younger than 18. It sounds like a comic sketch, but it’s legitimate!”
The show that Dooley was filming was Stacey Dooley sleeps above the US, in front of the TV channel U.
She added: ‘I have to rent a trailer to place [my child] in. Her father stays in this trailer with Minnie who looks out the window while I’m filming and then goes back to the trailer to breastfeed Minnie, and all girls [working at the brothel] are like: “Morning Miss Minnie!”
“I am like: she will be open like nothing else!”
Dooley and Clifton have been together since 2019, after they were strictly linked in 2018 and the show started winning. The couple welcomed their daughter Minnie in January 2023.
The documentary Dooley was filming when Stacey Dooley sleeps about the US: the brothel that dives into the criminalization of sex work.
Dooley visited Nevada because it is the only American state where prostitution is legal and there are 19 regulated brothels.
The documentary sheds light on the emotional and physically exhausting aspects of sex work, while he is also looking for the increased safety associated with legal brothels.
Stacey Dooley sleeps over the US: the brothel is available to watch for free at U.
