Charlotte Crosby says her baby plans have been rocked by mum Letitia’s cancer diagnosis

Charlotte Crosby has yet to ’embrace’ her pregnancy after the reality star’s mum was diagnosed with breast cancer following her baby announcement.

The Geordie Shore favourite, 32, told MailOnline she’s been so ‘worried’ by Letitia’s health that she hasn’t thought about giving birth, a life-changing moment, which will be filmed for her upcoming BBC series. 

In an exclusive interview, Charlotte revealed the pair have spent ‘the whole of her pregnancy’ consumed by Letitia’s diagnosis but the arrival of her new-born will give her mum, who started chemotherapy last week, a much-needed boost in happiness. 

Charlotte said: ‘I don’t know when it’s going to sink in.

‘I’m going to be filming all the way up until I give birth and I will be filming the birth.

‘I feel really calm about it because this show is completely different to anything I’ve ever filmed before. It’s really relaxed, and it’s really calm, it’s so much like a fly-on-the-wall that sometimes I don’t even notice that I’m filming so I’m fine.

‘I’ve got my mam and I’m going to chemotherapy with her, she just started last week. I’m too busy worrying about my mam so giving birth hasn’t even entered my mind.

‘We were saying this morning that it’s so weird to think that she got diagnosed with cancer while I was pregnant – it’s literally been the whole of my pregnancy so we haven’t embraced it as much as we could have but when the baby arrives, she’ll be really happy.’

Charlotte is expecting her first baby with boyfriend Jake Ankers, who she’s been dating for a year.

The TV personality told her former Geordie Shore co-stars about her pregnancy on camera during filming of The Reunion, MTV’s new series that follows returning cast members who have all entered new phases in their lives. 

She agreed to take part alongside close friends Holly Hagan, Sophie Kasaei, and Marnie Simpson, because the new series is worlds away from their former partying days, where Charlotte became famed for wetting herself while intoxicated.   

Charlotte said: ‘When we first started filming, I think I was about seven weeks pregnant. I was very early on. I told the girls on camera.

‘It’s totally different’: Charlotte, who’s over eight months pregnant, agreed to take part in Geordie Shore: The Reunion because it’s worlds away from her former partying days on the original Newcastle series

‘I would never go back to Geordie Shore as it was when we were on it – this is the reunion show. I agreed to do this series because it’s a totally different kettle of fish.

‘It’s filmed differently, we are making the reunion show, which is where we all reunite and we see people that we haven’t seen for years, sort out differences, it’s not about the partying or drinking or anything like that.

‘It was relatively easy for me to film while being pregnant the whole way through.’

The first episode of the new series teases the return of Gary Beadle, who’s now married to wife Emma McVey and is a father to children Chester and Primrose.

While it’s unclear whether the Geordie favourite does film for the reunion show, Charlotte insisted that the idea of seeing her former flame again doesn’t faze her.

Charlotte said: ‘No, no, no. It’s been the story of my life for 12 years. I always get questioned about my feelings for Gary – it’s like being asked how am I feeling today? Honestly, that’s what it feels like.’
