Charlotte Dawson confirms due date for 'rainbow baby' as she leaves fans in tears with video of pregnancy journey so far

Charlotte Dawson has confirmed her due date after announcing she's expecting her second child. The reality star and her fiancé Matthew Sarsfield shared the joyous news earlier this week that they are preparing to welcome their 'rainbow baby' after suffering a heartbreaking miscarriage.

The couple revealed on Monday (February 20) that "three will become four" after they welcomed their son, Noah, in 2020. Charlotte told fans yesterday that her family is growing with a little brother or a sister for two-year-old son Noah. She wrote on her Instagram: "We’ve been keeping a very very BIG SECRET!!!! When 3 become 4… we are just over the moon to grow our little fambo.

"I know how supportive you all have been with my miscarriage last year.. & you’ve all wanted me to have another baba!! It’s been tough since we lost our little cherub, but this has been perfect timing for our rainbow babay." Charlotte, 30, added: "Can’t wait for Noah to be a big brother. Overwhelmed with all the love, support & messages will try my best & get back to you all."

Charlotte has since returned to Instagram to thank fans for all their support following her and Matthew's news and has also given her followers an emotional glimpse into her pregnancy journey so far - including the moment she handed her mum her positive pregnancy test.

Her mum could be seen looking stunned and delighted by the news as she clung to her grandson. Charlotte was also seen attending her first scan and paraded her blossoming baby bump in varying attire.

Alongside the video montage, Charlotte, who is the daughter of late comedian Les Dawson from Collyhurst, confirmed her due date as she penned: "Our little rainbow Baby DawsySarsy is due august 3rd thank you for all the love. Here's some special clips of the last few months that I’ve been dying to share with you all hope you enjoy... as you can see I did a million preggo tests I just couldn't believe it."

Former Corrie star Brooke Vincent was quick to reply, writing in the comments: "Congratulations babe xx lots of love to you all." Atomic Kitten star Natasha Hamilton, who has recently announced she is pregnant with her fifth child, also wrote: "Beautiful."

And while fans felt emotional over Charlotte's news, it was also her mum, Tracy, who made fans teary eyed. @liiziibee123 said: "Awww your mum [crying face emojis] so cute." @theunconditionalmummy typed: "It’s your mum's reaction," alongside a teary-eyed emoji and a heart. @the_life_of_reillys89 shared: "Omg your mum's reaction. Aww congratulations to you all how amazing."

@keggsie_xoxxo commented: "I'm In tears congratulations." @lifeof_anastasia_and_lillyrose posted: "So chuffin happy for you getting teary watching this you deserve all the happiness in the word the love that Noah has for his brother or sister already is just incredible!" @chelskye11 added: "Omg in tears. Congratulations you both so deserve this."

Charlotte and Matt were initially wary about sharing the news after Charlotte’s heartbreaking miscarriage at 10 weeks last April. Speaking with OK! from their new family home in Lancashire, Charlotte said she was about to tuck into a takeaway of her favourite chippy tea when she discovered she was expecting.

Charlotte, who starred on Ex on the Beach, is now 17 weeks pregnant. "I can’t believe it’s actually happened again and Noah is going to be a big brother!" she told OK! "Obviously this one is a rainbow baby. I feel very blessed and very happy that I’ve managed to get pregnant again. We were absolutely heartbroken about the miscarriage last year."
