Taking to Twitter following the explosive interview Sam gave with the Mail on Sunday, Stacey decided to respond by liking a tweet about forgiveness.
The tweet read: 'Forgive not because they deserve forgiveness but because you deserve peace.'
It comes a day after Sam revealed he had confronted Kevin about his relationship with Stacey during a furious FaceTime call.
He told the Mail on Sunday: 'He went white. I just stuck it on him, 'You're an absolute rat. How you conducted yourself. Just a slippery, slimy snake.' He didn't say a word. He looked petrified. He looked so shocked.'

'I am so respectful of [Stacey], but I am gutted and I am disappointed and I feel so let down that she did not have the respect for me to tell me and just come clean.'
The fitness fanatic said Kevin - who he referred to as his 'best mate' - has since refused to meet and discuss the relationship 'man-to-man'.
He said: 'To have that relationship where you are best buddies, but then you start going cold because you start fancying their girlfriend – I hold no respect for him whatsoever.
'He has gone from my best mate wanting to know the ins and outs of what I am up to and then he can't even go out of his way to reply. That's come from guilt.'
