Charlotte Church
- Profession: Singer
- Place/Date of Birth: Llandaff, Cardiff, 21 February 2020
- Associated with: Gavin Henson
And she apparently described her role as chatshow host as a bit "unprofessional" - but insists she got better and she is a hard task master.
The singer told The Sun: "When the first show went out, I was really proud. But now I can see I looked a bit unprofessional and some bits just weren’t right.
"I’m quite harsh with myself in that respect. Mainly because I don’t like watching myself.
"I always think, ’You f***king idiot, what are you doing? What are you making that face for?’ But I think I definitely got better."
Charlotte also said her boyfriend Gavin Henson watched each show in the studio and gave her honest advice.
Speaking in an interview on the Channel 4 website, she said: "Even when the show starts, even though you want it to be slick and professional, it’s still going to be a big learning curve for me.
"The last show of the series will probably be 10 times better than the first show of the series. We’re going to try and make a high-energy show that hasn’t got one minute where you want to turn over. Hopefully it’ll be really quick and really funny."
The Charlotte Church Show will return to Channel 4 on February 23 at 10pm.
Charlotte and Gavin ’in love’ - Feb 6 2007
Welsh songstress Charlotte Church has dismissed rumours that her relationship with Gavin Henson is on the rocks following a string of stories about blazing rows.
The star and her rugby hunk are just as in love as they were and Gavin "gives as good as he gets" claims her mother Maria.
She also dismissed claims that Charlotte was slimming down to a size eight to please her boyfriend, reports Reveal.
Her mother told the magazine: "We keep hearing about these supposed diets that Charlotte is meant to be on, but it’s total rubbish.
"She’s fed up of going on about it. She’s a size 12 and is more than happy with who she is - and so is Gavin. He loves her curvy figure - like most men, he likes a bit of flesh.
"She eats healthy food and looks after herself. She has to eat well because she cooks Gav’s meals, and he insists on eating only the best foods."
Charlotte also doesn’t go to the gym because she hates it, her mother said.
Speaking about the couple’s relationship, her mum Maria said: "Charlotte has told me: ’We are stronger than ever and really happy’. They’re just as in love as they ever were."
She also said that they all laughed at reports that Gavin will dump her because of her fiery temper.
"Charlotte’s happier than ever. Gavin gives as good as he gets - he has no issues with her," Maria added.
Char’s no angel with boozy night out - Jan 8 2007
If cutting down on booze was one of Charlotte Church’s New Year’s resolutions it seems she’s broken it already - by drinking boyfriend Gavin Henson under the table at a ski resort.
She reportedly sank 10 sambucas and six vodka Red Bulls before tucking into a pepperoni pizza in a single night when on holiday with friends in Chamonix, according to The Sun.
The Voice Of An Angel singer removed her gold stiletto shoes and announced: "It’s icy out there. I can’t wear these shoes.
"Besides, aren’t I meant to be an angel? I’ll float around like an angel in my tights."

Five years later and Charlotte was making a name for herself at local karaoke competitions, and then...
"I was watching the Richard and Judy show on TV and they said they were looking for talented kids. No-one was around so I phoned up," she says. "The producers said I had to sing down the phone. So I did ’Pie Jesu’ and that was it, I was invited on the show. Mum and Dad were the last to find out!"
This led to even more television performances, as well as high profile concerts at the London Palladium, the Royal Albert Hall and Cardiff Arms Park. "It all went a bit mad!" laughs Charlotte.
Now eighteen Charlotte has become a media icon. A ill advised relationship with ’model’ and all round bad boy Steven Johnson and on going arguments with her mother have put Charlotte very much under public scrutiny, but it has only made her more popular. Charlotte will turn her hand to anything these days, she presented Have I Got News For You? made a guest appearance on a dance track and even starred in a film, I’ll Be There. She is a chat show regular, openly voicing her opinions about fellow stars in a very down to earth way.
She may be one of the richest teenagers in the UK after coming into her fortune on her eighteenth but Charlotte Church is as normal as they come.
