'Yes yes yes and yes you are my best friend you are my life i h. Best night ever'.

£1million Sunderland mansion

Charlotte took her whirlwind romance with Jake to the next level in 2021 by moving in together.

The star had renovated her lavish Sunderland home which was said to be worth in excess of £1million.

In a YouTube video at the time, the reality star showed off her beautiful home renovation which featured double dark wood doors and marble floored lobby.

Charlotte showed off her no-expense-spared black and beige dining table with plenty of space for guests when she entertains.

She opted for minimalist chic with a few ornaments placed in spaces in the wall behind the table with a door to the right leading outside.

The star then moved into the room she describes as the 'Crosby manor social club', which she says is 'very well used'.

Sitting on her bed, Charlotte demonstrated the cinema screen which descends from the ceiling of her bedroom, joking: 'This is where the magic happens.'

The star moved into her walk in wardrobe, admitting it was too expensive to have replaced, so she had the doors and handles brightened up to give it a new look.

The star then moved into her pool room which has not had done yet but says needs updating due to moisture not being extracted properly.

She excitedly explained how she wanted people to 'feel as if you're in Mykonos' once the room is done.

Holiday home

Earlier this year, Charlotte gave a first glimpse at her new holiday home in Spain as she revealed to her followers she has bought a villa.

She posted a photo of herself and daughter Alba looking up at the stunning new build.

The property is rendered in a cream finish with wood panels and large windows and sliding doors for access onto the big patio area complete with swimming pool.

The modern pad also boasts a roof terrace for catching the rays all day long, once they are able to visit their second home when the build is finished.

She also revealed the breathtaking view of the mountains from the property, in the post which she captioned: 'I have a pretty good feeling the memories me you and dada make here will be the best ones yet

'A huge pinch me moment...it's official I got my dream holiday home. Please go to the last slide! The views from our roof terrace imagine the sunsets.'

Alba's first birthday

In October last year, the couple held a lavish pumpkin patch themed 1st birthday party for their baby girl.

Charlotte looked chic in a sleeveless, taupe coloured maxi dress with tie-front drape detailing while Jake wore a striped polo shirt with chinos.

Alba was adorable in a baby pink dress featuring ruffled tulle sleeves and the number one emblazoned across her chest.

The birthday party was held in an enormous marquee on the grounds of Black Horse in Beamish, County Durham.

There was a children's entertainers to entertain the toddlers, a bouncy castle, ball pool and slide as well as photo areas made of hay with pumpkins on display.

Adults were served a yummy Sunday Roast with all the trimmings, whilst taking advantage of the free bar.

Ectopic pregnancy

Charlotte opened up about how trauma from her ectopic pregnancy led to her opting for an elective caesarean for the birth of her daughter Alba.

The former Geordie Shore star had an ectopic pregnancy back in 2016 and was left fearing she would never be able to have kids before she welcomed her daughter.

Speaking about the traumatic experience, she spoke about the moment she was rushed to emergency surgery after being left in unbearable pain.

An ectopic pregnancy is when a fertilised egg implants itself outside of the womb, usually in the fallopian tube, meaning a baby is unable to develop and leaving the mother's health in danger.

Appearing on the KICPOD podcast with Australian influencer Steph Claire Smith, Charlotte told how her fallopian tube had been left 'completely ruptured'.

She said: 'I hadn't ever felt pain like this and couldn't take anymore. I told Kate [a friend] to cancel the doctor, I need to go to the hospital, this is something worse than period pain.'

She said she found out she was pregnant after giving a urine sample and said of the moment: 'I was in shock, and when Kate said 'Congratulations!' I said no no no, this is bad.'

Charlotte told how her heart sank as she knew it was something serious and recalls crying and panicking whether she could ever have a baby in the future.

'I found out my fallopian tube had completely ruptured, and the doctor had to remove my left fallopian tube and an ovary,' she said.

After her traumatic experience, Charlotte said she 'wanted control' during her pregnancy with her first child Alba, opting for a planned caesarean.

Second pregnancy

The star announced she is pregnant with her second child, almost two years after she and fiancé Jake welcomed daughter Alba Jean.

The reality star shared a clip on Sunday with the news and declared she was 'so excited' while also showcasing her blossoming bump.

Charlotte looked gorgeous in the video as she modelled looks from her new clothing range Pepper Girls Club, before slipping into a figure hugging dress as she joined Jake and Alba Jean on the beach.

Writing: 'In my babies and business ERA delighted to announce baby Ankers number 2 is due January 2025'.

Jake reshared the clip and commented: 'Our family is growing, baby number two on the way'.
