But according to the star's mother Maria, her pregnancy has not changed the couple's plans.

She told Reveal magazine: "Charl is pregnant and all of a sudden the whole world thinks she's getting married quickly.

"This is 2007, not 1807. She and Gav want to take their time and do it right - not be forced into a wedding.

"I can assure everyone that Charl and Gav are not getting married before the baby comes. Charl certainly won't walk down the aisle a pregnant bride."

Despite desperately trying to keep their plans secret, it was reveales that Charlotte and Gavin had secured Margam Country Park in Port Talbot, Wales as their wedding venue last month.

It was their second choice venue after police revealed the couple's first choice, Castell Coch, is a hotspot for having sex in public.

Church has been having baby scans every two weeks, as well as routine tests at 12 and 20 weeks.

The singer-turned-chat show host is expecting her first child in September.
