Charlotte Church Shows Off Her Post Baby Body

trix — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 18:03:00 GMT

Charlotte Church put her hands on her hips to say, yeah, check it out, I know I look good.

It's only been two months since she gave birth to her second little bundle of joy and she looks great. She looks like her svelte pre-baby self, already. She looks happy, but tired.

She was out and about, running errands and going to a doctors appointment. Was she by herself, for some much needed quiet time for mommy time, or just catching her breath before getting the kids out of the car?

Charlotte Church Debuts Dexter

trix — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 13:02:00 GMT

Charlotte Church debuted the newest member of her family on the cover of OK!

Dexter Lloyd Henson was born on 11 Jan weighing 7lb 5oz and joined his big sister Ruby in familial bliss.

I say bliss because even though kids can be frustrating as all get out, they really are the greatest treasures we could ever dream of.

Charlotte Church Won't Get Married This Summer

trix — Wed, 28 Jan 2009 14:30:00 GMT

Charlotte Church says don't be silly, to rumors that she and Gavin Henson are set to get married this summer.

Give the girl a break, she just had her baby 17 days ago. She says she'll be busy planning her little Dexter's baptism.

Charlotte said,"I think the marriage rumours were just started by a bored journalist - it's absolute rubbish. I'm sure I will be 50 by the time we get married. We've been a bit busy child-bearing."

Gavin thinks it's going to happen sooner rather than later. He said, "We will get married one day, I just don't know when. Maybe when these two are walking, then they can walk down the aisle."

As long as they are happy, right?

Charlotte Church Welcomes A Son & His Name Is...

Sassy Smith — Sun, 11 Jan 2009 18:38:00 GMT

Charlotte Church and Gavin Henson have welcomed their second child - a bouncing baby boy! He was born just after midnight on January 11 at the couple's UK home and he weighed in at a healthy 7 lbs. 5 oz. He joins big sister Ruby Megan, 15 months. So what is baby's name?

Well, can't tell you yet - mom and dad don't even know! They are working on it though.

A message on Church's website read:

"Charlotte has literally just this minute phoned us to let us know that she gave birth to a little boy today.

"He was born just after midnight at her and Gavin's home with Gavin in attendance at the birth."

I wonder when they'll work on more babies? Charlotte has said that she would like six children and Gavin wants eight. She also wants all her babies by the time she's 32 - she's 22 now, so that gives her a bit of time.

Charlotte loves being a mom, saying, "I love singing and I always want to do that, but my family is more important to me as I don't want to neglect my responsibilities as a mother. I've just been at home, cooking and cleaning and looking after my gorgeous little baba."

Congrats!

Home Birth This Weekend For Charlotte Church?

Sassy Smith — Sun, 14 Dec 2008 13:31:00 GMT

Is Welsh songstress Charlotte Church, ready to pop this weekend? According to rumors, she may just be having her second baby any minute! And she's also expected to be having a home birth.

Church gave birth to her daughter Ruby, 14 months, at home and she'd like to do the same for her second. However, husband Gavin Henson really wants her to have the baby at the hospital because it's "cleaner and safer."

A source said, "Charlotte was really determined to have her second baby at home. She thought it would be more relaxing for her and the baby, and that she would feel more comfortable there."

The 22-year-old is said to have the same consultant and two midwives that she had during her daughter's birth. She's also set to have a private ambulance on the ready just in case.

The insider added, After much deliberation, they decided as everything went so well last time to go for the same option.

"Charlotte is even giving birth in the same room with only Gavin there - she is very superstitious like that."

So now the question is, will she give birth before the weekend is over? Reportedly Gavin missed an important rugby match so he could be at her side. He was slated to fly to Italy to play for Wales in a European Cup game.

A rep told WalesOnline, "He has not been selected for this match to allow him to be with his partner, who is due to give birth imminently."

Well, whether she goes for the home birth or decides on the hospital, I hope all goes well!

Pregnant Charlotte Church P*ssed At Hubby For Partying

Sassy Smith — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 12:03:00 GMT

Charlotte Church, who is due any minute with her second baby, is not happy with her husband, Gavin Henson. He decided to drink way too much while out partying last weekend, and the pregnant lady let him know just how much trouble he was in.

Church obviously wears the pants in the family, which is the way it should be right? Gavin came home past his curfew (kidding - I don't really know if he has a curfew) and he was reportedly drunk, making quite a bit of noise coming in. Um, you do not disturb a heavily pregnant woman when she's in the final stages of being able to sleep before the crying, nursing, pooping baby comes along! Sheesh... men.

Anyway, Gavin made so much noise that Charlotte threw water on him and then he had to sleep on the sofa. He had to tell his rugby mates that he was unable to go out on Sunday because he was "still in the dog house."

A pal said, "He told Charlotte he felt sick because he'd drunk too much. She went ballistic."

Plus, seriously, if your wife is pregnant, due any second, you don't go out and get smashed. What if wife goes into labor? Duh.

Refrain from getting your drunk on Gavin!

Russell Crowe Donating Hair to Locks of Love

Karl Erikson — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 14:36:00 GMT

Here's Russell Crowe with 4-year-old son, Charlie, as they wander around after school, stopping at a bakery for some yummy stuff. Russell is growing his hair long for his upcoming role as Robin Hood in the movie "Nottingham."

Once he grows out his ponytail to 10 inches, he'll be chopping it off and donating it to the Locks of Love charity, which makes wigs for cancer patients. Very cool. Not that I'd want Russell Crowe's hair, mind you, but still.

Russell Crowe Says Sons Are Complete Opposites

Karl Erikson — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 15:03:00 GMT

Russell Crowe says that his two sons are complete opposites. He says that 4-year-old Charlie is the "deep thinker," often working his way through books and puzzles, much like his mom, Danielle Spencer. "I've heard him on more than one occasion say that football is really stupid," Russell jokes.

On the other hand, Tennyson (2), is "obsessed with anything with wheels." He also shares with his father a great love for athletics. Russell owns an Australian national rugby team and Tennyson loves the football. "When football is on, he actually gives me a little sparkly-eyed look," says daddy Russell. "He's connecting with that." Even now, months after the Olympics have finished, the family sits down to dinner and Tennyson says, "Lympics! 'Lympics!'"

Charlie's name, by the way, is a family name on both Russell's and Danielle's sides of the family. But Tennyson was a more creative choice. Joking with Russell, Danielle told him she liked the name Tennyson. Russell said, "What does it mean?" She answered, "Second born son of a loving father." "Really?" She said, "No, it means son of Dennis."

Crowe's latest film, "Body of Lies," is in movie theaters now. I haven't seen it because I hate war movies, but Rotten Tomatoes gives it a 51% freshness rating.

And for the record, football IS really stupid.

Charlotte Church Spoils Her Boyfriend While Pregnant

trix — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 17:03:00 GMT

Charlotte Church needs to sit down and take it easy. She has an 11 month or baby/toddler and she is pregnant with her second child, yet she waits on Gavin "hand and foot". I know she says she's happy to do it because he's such a great father, but shouldn't he be the one taking care of her?

Charlotte explained, "I wait on him hand and foot. His mother spoiled him and now I spoil him too." Um Really? She did say that he does have some bad traits though, "His worst trait is he is an Aquarian! All Aquarians are pains in the backside, especially when they've had a drink. I'm apparently a Pisces, so that apparently makes me very lazy!"

I don't know how she does it, when I was pregnant with my second it was all I could do to take care of myself. Though I'm sure our circumstances are a little different, I was a bartender and on my feet for 8 hours at a time and then came home to a 2 year old and a messy house. She probably doesn't have to deal with anything like that.

I hope that she is taking care of her pregnant self and enjoying the time she has with Ruby before her new little munchkin come along. I feel like I should have titled this post Gavin Henson Takes Advantage Of Pregnant Girlfriend.

Charlotte's Pregnancy Causes Family Troubles

trix — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 12:35:00 GMT

Charlotte Church is in the gossip news again. This time it's not about her liking to drink or about her fear of weight gain. This time it's because of the BIL (boyfriend in-laws).Charlotte's mom couldn't be happier that Charlotte is pregnant for the second time but Gavin's family is another matter altogether.

Gavin's family wants him to concentrate on his Rugby career. Gavin's dad was a rugby player too and knows that it takes focus and fierce concentration to become successful. Gavin is going to be 26 and a dad of two and his family is worried that his growing family and desire (obsession) to be a celebrity will take away that focus.

Charlotte Church is so happy she's pregnant again however, she's not too excited about the pregnancy weight gain this time around. We all know it's so much harder to lose it the second time around and at 22 she's really pushing it.

She said that she's, "not looking forward to getting a big fat face and arms again, I was just beginning to get my body back and I was doing quite well. It's what women are made for, if you can't indulge yourself during pregnancy, when can you?"

A "friend" told Closer Magazine that Charlotte is craving crisps and chocolate this time. It looks like it's all going to her boobies doesn't it?

Hmmm, I worked at Cheesecake Factory during my 1st pregnancy and craved Cheesecake, it was awful.

Charlotte Church Likes To Get Drunk

trix — Wed, 16 Jul 2008 11:30:00 GMT

Charlotte Church says that no one can drink her under the table. Oh mommy I'm so proud of you! New mom Charlotte Church says she likes to party and that only her boyfriend Gavin Henson might be able to keep up her.

Charlotte revealed what a typical night out in Cardiff, in her home country of Wales, would involve. She said: "It would feature a lot of alcohol, and an outfit that looks really good at the start of the night, but is in tatters by the end. Plus a hell of a lot of dancing, with hair that looks like you've just come out of the rain because you're so sweaty. Followed by a big, big meal - either a steak, a doner kebab or cheese and chips with garlic mayonnaise. We know how to do it down in Cardiff!"

Now that's all fine and dandy, it sounds fun and there is nothing wrong with going out and having a good time, let's just hope that she's not doing it while pregnant. Remember you're only young once.

Charlotte Church Says She's To Young To Get Married

trix — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 14:15:00 GMT

Charlotte Church isn't getting married. Yet!!!

She says that she doesn't want to make that kind of commitment while she's still so young. I don't know about you, but I think that two kids with the same baby daddy is a pretty solid commitment, don't you?

Charlotte says that she is going to wait at least another 10 years, she'll be at least 32. That means her yet to be born baby will be 10, that's the perfect age for a flower girl/ring bearer.

I wonder what Gavin thinks about that? Does it mean they are exclusive or what?

She explained her thought process, "We both think that we have our dream house, one baby and another on the way, so it'd be nice to leave getting married till our mid thirties. It's nice to have some thing like that to look forward to, otherwise you've done it all."

Charlotte Church: Post/Pre Baby

As we told you before, singer and TV personality (and suspected Re/Max agent) Charlotte Church is pregnant again. She and Gavin Henson have 9-month-old Ruby at home.

I guess this is one good way to deal with the inevitable post-baby body crap that celebrities are held to, just skip the post and move right into pre again. Pretty smart. Boop-boop-a-doop.

Man Candy: Daddy Edition

This one is for the ladies.

I always hear that women think good dads are sexy. I haven't actually seen this in practice and I'm a pretty good parent. My kids aren't living in their own mess and squalor, at least not all day. No, I think women find good dads sexy if they are men that they find sexy. I know, I should still being getting more smiles than pity, but what can you do? I blame the gut.

Ben Cohen doesn't have such worries. The English rugby star posed with his daughter Isabella to promote England's "Problem Shared," a campaign to support first-time fathers.

We have that in the states, too. It's called bowling night.

The Stars Are Nothing Like Us: A Little Pregnancy Doesn't Stop Charlotte Church From Partying!

BadKitty — Tue, 11 Sep 2007 11:17:00 GMT

There are a surprising number of topless pictures of pregnant singer Charlotte Church! It must have something to do with being Welsh - Cathy Zeta Jones is also a fan of the topless sunbathing afternoon. This is a relatively demure photo of Charlotte from earlier in her pregnancy. Good for her, getting out there and enjoying life while pregnant, but there is NO EXCUSE for those hideous cornrows.

Charlotte has a well publicized joie de vivre. Little miss Voice of an Angel is all grown up, and she and boyfriend Welsh rugby player Gavin Henson live in a big old country home in South Wales. She's due next weekend and has a home birth planned. Then she's going to celebrate in her new pub. That she built in her house. I guess that's one way to avoid the paparazzi.

We all hate to drive home from a night out drinking, but this is one step beyond having a full time driver. Once again we see that the rich are very, very different from you and me.
