She told : "There’s every chance I could give birth on his birthday. What a tribute that would be!"

The rugby star explained: "It was a bit of a shock. We didn’t plan it or anything."

Charlotte and Matt revealed their good news after a turbulent year which saw them split up before getting back together.

She added: "We had spoken about having a baby last year but we were in a bad place in our relationship.

"I think we thought a baby might save things but that’s never a good idea. It didn’t end up happening so it clearly wasn’t meant to be.

"This just feels like perfect timing."

The pair had appeared on Celebs Go Dating to try and iron out the problems in their relationship.

But Matthew said their woes were behind them now, saying: "We’re both ready for this next chapter. We’ve got a house and we’ve been together for four years. It feels right.”

Charlotte shot to fame on MTV reality show Ex On The Beach in 2016, where she ended up having a threesome with Geordie Shore's Gaz Beadle.

In 2018, she appeared on Celebs On The Farm, with her first appearance on Celebs Go Dating the same year.

She hooked up with co-star Frankie Cocozza on the show, but the relationship didn't last.

Charlotte's dad Les died from a heart attack in 1993, just eight months after she was born.
