CHARLOTTE Church is one of the most successful Welsh female music artists of all time, having had a career spanning the genres of classical and pop.
She is married and has a child with musician Johnny Powell and has two children from her previous marriage to Gavin Henson.
Charlotte Church was born on February 21, 1986 and is a Welsh singer and TV presenter.
She achieved overnight worldwide success in 1998 as a classical singer with her debut album Voice Of An Angel aged just 12 -years-old.
Her next three albums Charlotte Church, Dream a Dream and Enchantment were also just as successful.
But after this she ditched classical in favour of a pop career.
Charlotte revamped herself as a pop singer in 2005 with her album Tissues and Issues, and had a hit with single Crazy Chick.
Her album Back to Scratch, which she funded, did less well, and only sold 200,000 copies.
She also enjoyed TV success presenting The Charlotte Show, which ran for two years
In early 2017, Charlotte completed her UK Late Night Pop Dungeon tour.
In May 2018 she joined the Save Our Trolls campaign and sang on a spoof charity song in support of the victims of revenge porn.
Charlotte tied the knot with her partner Jonathan Powell in a secret woodland wedding in September, 2017.
They wed at a registry office in Cardiff with just a handful of guests before throwing a special ceremony in the garden of their home.
Jonathan is a singer, songwriter and producer and lives with Charlotte near the Welsh capital.
In March, Charlotte revealed she was pregnant with her third child, and first child with partner Jonathan Powell.
She made a lowkey pregnancy announcement on Twitter, replying to a friend about missing a gig. She wrote: “Gutted to have missed it. I’m preggers so I’m airing on the side of caution in terms of virus. It looks like it was a great success. X.”
She gave birth in August 2020.
The pair began dating in 2010, and in early 2017 announced that they were expecting their first child together, but in June 2017 a statement released on Twitter revealed that Charlotte had tragically miscarried the baby.
The simple statement read: “Charlotte and Jonny are very sad to announce that they lost their baby. Now is a time for grieving and being together as a family.
“We kindly ask everyone to respect that peace.”
Charlotte has a daughter Ruby, 13, and son Dexter, 12, from her relationship with ex-fiance Gavin Henson – the couple split in 2010.
Charlotte has a reported net worth around £9million.
She made most of her money back in the 90s from her clasical albums.
Her wealth has dropped dramatically from £25million when she first became famous.
