In the latest real-life plot twist, pregnant Charlotte Dawson is gearing up for a dramatic panto stint, much like her legendary comedian father, Les. The reality TV icon, 31, is all set to dazzle in the upcoming Aladdin production at The Globe theatre in Blackpool, bringing her talents back home. This bombshell development follows the turbulent phase where Charlotte booted out her partner Matthew Sarsfield, aged 32, after uncovering his racy text exchange with a rugby mate's former flame.

Amidst the chaos, the social media sensation has revealed her expectancy of baby number three with Matthew, with fingers crossed for a baby sister to join her boys, Noah, three, and one year old Jude. Charlotte said with her signature flair: "I feel like the stage is where I belong and performing is something I love, so I can't wait to be back in costume making people laugh." She reminisced about last year's acting challenge post-childbirth: "Last year when I performed I'd just had a baby which was a bit of a challenge, so this time around I feel ready for anything.

" Her enthusiasm is palpable as she gears up for the festive season: "I'm so excited to be starring in Aladdin at my favourite place, it makes it extra special. Let's bring on the chuffing panto magic." Charlotte, whose presence is topping charts with her podcast 'Charlotte's Naughty Corner', holds a remarkable track record with this marking her third consecutive panto performance, echoing the late great Les, who famously embraced.
