Reality TV star Charlotte Crosby has given birth to a baby girl and she's shared a glimpse into her experience in hospital. The 32-year-old, who rose to fame on Geordie Shore, was supported by her boyfriend, Jake Ankers, as she welcomed her first child via planned C-section on Saturday, October 15
Charlotte is yet to share pictures of her daughter, but she took to Instagram stories to post snaps of Jake, 31, and herself in hospital scrubs and a gown ahead of their precious new arrival, reports OK! Magazine.
Charlotte's dad Gary was the first to share the exciting news. Taking to Twitter earlier this morning, he wrote: "So, officially a grandfather! Little girl, all is well. Excited for the new chapter in our little family". Meanwhile, the star announced the news on her official website, Charlotte: First Look!, with the story titled: "I'm officially a mother!"

The media personality was said to have felt uncomfortable in her last few weeks of pregnancy. A source close to the star confirmed she wasn't having a great time, telling OK" Magazine: “There’s just a few weeks until Charlotte’s due date and she’s starting to really feel it – she finds it so hard to get comfortable and is really struggling with heartburn.”
Charlotte showed fans she wasn’t in the best of moods last week on TikTok when she posted: “Pregnancy bump update. I am now ‘Get this f***ing baby out of me’ weeks pregnant. My main symptom is bitch.” The star has also faced heartache amidst the excitement of welcoming her first child, as her mum, Letitia, was diagnosed with breast cancer just weeks after Charlotte found out she was pregnant.
Our source said: “The second half of her pregnancy has flown by as she’s been so preoccupied by taking care of her mum – a lot of the time she’s forgotten she’s pregnant. Now it’s all starting to become real and friends are urging her to take some time for herself as life will get more chaotic once the baby arrives.”
Just two days ago, Charlotte took to Instagram to share a sweet snap of herself and Jake on their "very last date night" before the arrival of their baby girl. She wrote: "OUR VERY LAST DATE NIGHT BEFORE PARENTHOOD. Can I have some appreciation for the heels please. 39 weeks and literally still in the heels.
"What a gorgeous surprise THANKYOU jake for just absolutely everything! I love you so much. Ready for this next adventure/ chapter with you and our baba! We gunna be the little A team with such an amazing man by our sides."
