She added: "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. It came as a shock when I found out last April. It was like we’d just come to the realisation that we were having a baby and I lost it at 10 weeks."
Charlotte revealed her beau suggested they should do a test after she felt "really ill" and was a day late on her period.
Recalling the moment they found out, Charlotte said: "Matthew is like my period person – he knows when I’m due on.
Charlotte revealed she took a test after feeling 'really ill'"He was like, 'You’ve not been on,' and I was like, 'It’s been a day!'
"I was stressed from doing pantomime, so I just put it down to that. Then I was really, really tired one day – I mean, I was a bit hungover – but I was like, this is not normal, and I felt really ill.
"So I said, 'Matt, I just think we should do a test.' I really wanted a chippy because it makes me happy, so I got the chips and gravy, I got the pregnancy test.
"I went to go and do the test and it had a faint line. I was like, 'Oh my God!' and I just screamed. Noah was like, 'What’s going on?,' and I said, 'You’re going to be a big brother!'"
While Charlotte revealed her son has been kissing her growing bump, she revealed her fiancé Matt was "really happy" but also "shocked" over the baby news.

'I tricked my sister into giving her baby a stupid name - she had it coming'
"But we didn’t really expect it because I was in a pantomime. I was busy, I was stressed and they always say you need to be chilled.
"But yeah, it happened! I came out of the toilet and I hadn’t even eaten my chippy – my chippy was getting cold – but Matthew was absolutely buzzing and so happy."
