Charlotte Dawson marked a monumental moment in her son Jude's life as the tot took his first solo steps.
The pregnant mum-of-two shared a video on Instagram celebrating the big milestone as she waits for her third child - a baby girl - to arrive. Charlotte is already mum to sons Jude, one, and Noah, three, but her shamed fiancé Matt Sarsfield was nowhere to be seen in the post.
Charlotte appeared delighted as she posted the video on her social media where Jude tottered across the living room floor to her. She captioned the post writing: “My Jude is officially off!!! Here’s a little video of his adventures of walking... He’s been taking steps for a few weeks now he’s not stopping!!
“I can’t wait to make memories with my boys holding hands and walking together, running together playing football this is just the start now... Noah has been so sweet, caring & such a supportive big brother as always! So proud of my little man.”
Charlotte recently revealed the gender of her third baby - but admitted that fiancé Matt isn't involved. Appearing on the podcast Naughty Corner, Charlotte pressed a glass into a cake to find out the gender of her child. Appearing nervous, she pulled it out and discovered a pink sponge, leaving her delighted. She declared: "Finally - I'm having a girl!"
Sharing the news with fans, she wrote: "I'm so happy. It's finally out. It's been the hardest secret ever as I'm so bad at keeping secrets as you know. I feel so relieved that I can finally say it, but I just can't believe it, and I never thought I'd have a girl. I've finally got my little princess, and we weren't even trying were we?"
Overcome with emotion, Charlotte continued, "I'm so happy I'm going to have my little best friend for life." In an interview with OK! Magazine ahead of finding out if she was expecting a boy or girl, Charlotte discussed Matt's infidelity and her hopes that if they had a daughter, it could potentially inspire changes in how he views and treats women.
The star candidly shared: "I just want the baby to be happy and healthy, but it would be amazing to have a little girl. I'm dying to dress her up and play Barbies. It would be amazing for Matthew, too, as it would help him understand respect for females."
"He'd understand why you can't treat women that way. I think being a girl dad would make him a better man, but we'll see what happens. Either way, the baby will be loved completely."
Charlotte opened up about the struggles of being pregnant during such a tough time, confessing: "It's been a crazy time. Having to deal with the heartache, the hurt, the disappointment and being pregnant on top of it all... it's been absolutely horrible."
With regards to her partner Matt, she revealed that he's back in the family home but not off the hook. She insisted: "I made him go and say sorry to the life-size cardboard cutout I keep of my dad [late comedy entertainer Les Dawson]. And he has a lot of making up to do with my mum, too."
