She sparked pregnancy rumours earlier this month when she posted a snap of her cradling her tummy while on holiday in Paris.

But while Charlotte Crosby exclusively confirms to Closer that she’s not expecting, she does admit that becoming a mum is her “dream.”

And she’s even talked about starting a family with her boyfriend-of-a-year, Joshua Ritchie.

Referencing the pregnancy speculation, Charlotte, 28 says, “It’s only just rumours, come on! I’ve been doing a lot of drinking lately which I wouldn’t be doing if I was pregnant. It’s just that I’d had a very big dinner and I was trying to hide my extremely bloated belly!"

She adds, "Of course I get broody, I think every woman gets like that, but it’s not something I'm ready for now. I can see myself having a family with Josh, I can be very wild and outrageous but when it comes to real-life things, I do think in a sensible way. But whenever we have an argument, it’s always Josh that turns round and is like, ‘Well, if we’re going to have a family one day…’”

She gushes when talking about Joshua – who previously dated Hollyoaks actress Stephanie Davis – and reveals this is the first time she’s truly trusted a man following the end of her relationship with Stephen Bear in 2017 amid cheating claims.

She says, “It’s the first time I have felt pure happiness. In every relationship I’ve been in, I’ve always had this underlying worry that goes through my head, 'Are they going to finish with me unexpectedly? Am I going to be cheated on?' But with Josh, I don’t have that niggling feeling in my chest when he goes anywhere. He’s so perfect, he’s dead loyal and down-to-earth.”

Charlotte rose to fame in 2011 in Geordie Shore and became as famed for her turbulent love life as for her wild partying. After splitting with Mitch Jenkins, she famously had an on/off relationship with her co-star Gaz Beadle.

Their relationship ended in 2016 after Charlotte suffered an ectopic pregnancy and tragically she miscarried their baby while Gaz filmed Ex On The Beach. She broke down in tears during a TV interview 18 months ago after Gaz announced he was expecting a baby with girlfriend Emma McVey, who gave birth to their son last January.

She says, “Seeing that about Gaz didn’t make me feel broody. It was obviously a bit of a shock but it happened a couple of years ago now, so I was even younger and had a lot going on. After I had my ectopic pregnancy, I had to get a fallopian tube removed but I’m not nervous or scared in the slightest, the doctor said it would be perfectly fine when trying for children, there’s going to be no problem. I would mind either a boy or a girl but it would be extra nice if I had a little girl!”
