Charlotte Crosby has revealed that she will be jetting off to the Maldives instead of celebrating a traditional Christmas this year.
The Geordie Shore star, 33, was left devastated following the death of her beloved grandmother Jean last November, and she says her Christmas decision is in part due to this.
Last year was Charlotte's first festive period without her nan, just one month after her death, which she now says was the "worst" Christmas and has led to her family deciding to head abroad this year.
Speaking to The Mirror, Charlotte said: "We're gonna do a small little tree just for Alba's sake, like a little one that you put at the table.
"This is a first time abroad I've never done a Christmas away and we're not doing any presents. It's just about making some memories, like amazing memories, on a big family holiday."
Charlotte is heading on holiday with her daughter Alba, fiancé Jake Ankers, and her parents.
She revealed that she's never been the biggest fan of Christmas, and it's only gotten worse since the death of her nan.
She told the outlet: "Obviously I've never liked Christmas but last Christmas was the worst. It was the first Christmas without my Nana – she had died a month beforehand – and just nothing felt the same."
Charlotte's Christmas plans come after she opened up to OK! about being a mum and her hopes for having a second child soon.
"Being a mum is the best and easiest job I've ever done in my life," she told us. "I feel like I just slid into it like a duck to water."
She went on to discuss wedding plans following Jake's romantic proposal in Dubai earlier this year, revealing that the couple aren't in any rush to head down the aisle as Charlotte is hoping to welcome another baby instead.
"It's so exciting, I'm on cloud nine after the proposal. I am obviously excited to plan a wedding but it's definitely not in my vision for the next two years at least. I'm really wanting to have another baby first," she admitted.
Charlotte added: "We're definitely not rushing to plan a wedding now, but hopefully we'll get more series and it would be lovely to film the wedding. Although if not, I'm sure I'll show you all about it on my Instagram Stories."
Charlotte's life with Jake and Alba is documented in her BBC reality series, Charlotte in Sunderland, which sees the ex-Geordie Shore favourite open up about everything including family life and fame.
