Charlotte Church expecting third child, first with husband Jonathan Powell

A hearty congratulations to her.

Charlotte Church is expecting her third child and her first with husband Jonathan Powell. The Welsh singer, who has been married to fellow musician Jonathan since 2017, made the announcement via a tweet on Sunday. Responding to a tweet about a charity concert that she was forced to pull out of, Charlotte said that she was "gutted" to have missed the event, but was taking precautions because she is, in fact, expecting. "Gutted to have missed it," she wrote. "I'm preggers so I'm airing on the side of caution in terms of virus. It looks like it was a great success." https://twitter.com/charlottechurch/status/1239146009864830976?s=20 This will be Charlotte's third child after 12 year old Ruby and 11 year old Dexter, who she had with her ex, former Welsh rugby player Gavin Henson. The happy news comes three years after the singer revealed that she had experienced a miscarriage in the summer of 2017. She and partner Jonathan married some months after. "Charlotte and Jonny are very sad to announce that they lost their baby," a statement at the time read. "Now is a time for grieving and being together as a family. We kindly ask everyone to respect that peace." Charlotte and Jonathan first began dating in 2010 following her split from rugby player Henson. They married in a Cardiff registry office in 2017, later having a small ceremony in the garden of their home. Mail Online reported that the couple swore all of their guests "to secrecy" following the intimate ceremony.

"Charlotte and Jonathan have been in love for a long time and a wedding was always on the cards," said a source.

"They wanted to keep things low key and swore all the guests to secrecy as they married under a tree. Jonathan has been a great influence on Charlotte, she has calmed down a lot since she met him."
