In 2018, Charlotte married her boyfriend of five years Matt Herbert. They welcomed their daughter Ella Rose in February 2015. At the time, Charlotte told HELLO! that becoming a mother was a dream come true. "It's all still a bit of a blur," she said. "We both had tears in our eyes when they placed Ella Rose on my chest after the birth. Nothing prepares you for that feeling. All of a sudden, this tiny being that you've been carrying around for nine months is there with you. It's a very moving experience."
