Charlotte Crosby proudly shows off her post-baby body just six weeks after giving birth


Charlotte Crosby proudly shows off body six weeks after giving birth — and she can't wait to start fitness again.

The former Geordie Shore star, 31, became a mum for the first time in October after announcing her pregnancy to fans in mid-April following weeks of speculation.

The reality star was thrilled to welcome the safe arrival of baby daughter, Alba Jean Ankers, and she said the pair's "hearts are full".

But since adapting to the highs and lows of motherhood Charlotte admits she's missed getting the endorphins pumping during a good old work out.

The bubbly North East native later shared a snap of her body and said she was proud of what she has been through.

Although best known for reality TV, back in January she launched her new fitness app, Blitz 'N' Burn building on the success of her fitness DVD in 2014, later doing a follow-up and two books in the genre.

She added: "With everything that's happened the past couple of weeks I'm really excited to feel those endorphins you get after a good workout (taking it very easy of course). I think it's gonna be such a positive thing for my head atm."

The TV personality could be hinted to her heartache recently as she candidly opened up about her feelings after her beloved grandma died. She admitted she doesn't think her world will "ever be the same" and thanked her followers for their support through the tough times.

But despite all she is going through as she adjusts to being a first time mum, Charlotte has the support of her man Jake Ankers by her side.

The pair who met through pals hit it off instantly and although he isn't in the media spotlight instead a restauranteur and foodie they are smitten with each other.

Charlotte's journey to motherhood has been a rocky road after she suffered from an ectopic pregnancy that left her on "the verge of dying" and fearful that she wouldn't be able to have children in the future.

An ectopic pregnancy occurs where the egg gets trapped in the fallopian tube until it is detected on scans or ruptures which can in extreme cases prove fatal.

So understandably Charlotte was fearful about conceiving and with just one ovary after having the other removed so was thrilled to welcome their little one into the world.

Charlotte thanked her followers with a heartfelt comment, writing, "I’m absolutely overwhelmed waking up reading these absolutely beautiful comments. you don’t realise how much this means to me! I love you all so much."
