The 'Geordie Shore' star, 32, has been in a relationship with chauffeur Jake Ankers, 33, since 2021 and the pair became parents for the first time earlier this month, with Charlotte taking to social media on Monday (31.10.22) to announce the moniker to her eight million followers.

Alongside a black-and-white photograph, she wrote on Instagram: "Alba Jean Ankers 14.10.22 [heart emoji]

Our hearts are so full my baby girl you have shown us a whole new meaning to life. Your perfect in absolutely every way! Mammy and Daddy are so so so lucky to call you our little girl [heart emoji] you are loved so much more then you will ever know."(sic)

Charlotte's father Gary was the first to announce the news that the little one had arrived, as he gushed about becoming a grandfather in an "exciting new chapter" for the family.

He tweeted: "So, officially a grand father! Little girl, all is well. Excited for the new chapter in our little family!"(sic)

The 'Celebrity Big Brother' star gave birth via caesarean section and previously explained she had been "too scared" to deliver naturally following her ectopic pregnancy in 2016 - after falling pregnant by her ex-boyfriend and former co-star Gaz Beadle.

She said: "'I've never really been keen to push a baby out of my vagina. I'm too scared to have a natural birth. There's always been something scary about it for me and when I had the ectopic pregnancy [in 2016] it scared me even more. Because I went through that horrendous time where I almost died, I know how things can go drastically wrong."
