Last week she stood in her dressing room in her bra and underwear and joked that she had “udders.”
She gave birth to baby Jude in August and shares two-year-old son Noah with fiancé Matt Sarsfield.
After gaining weight during her pregnancy, which is a completely normal part of giving birth, Charlotte told MailOnline: “‘I just feel like it’s best to show the reality of life and I understand not why.” “People don’t do that anyway. It’s just reality, isn’t it?”
“Before I had Jude I had lost quite a bit of weight. And I’m a lot bigger now, but you know, I had two kids – you know what I mean?”

“I just have to embrace the tiger stripes, hug the fluffy belly and make them feel loved on my body.”
She joked about calling her bunions like Barry and Bill, the bunions, and said it was funny.
The former Ex On The Beach star was praised by fans for showing off her “real body” during a sweaty home workout.
She told how she showed off her own “Monday motivation” as she stripped down to a gray sports bra and navy vest.
She completed her fitness look with matching skin-tight navy leggings and white socks that were pulled up over the hem.
Charlotte went makeup-free and piled her brunette hair on top of her head so it wouldn’t get in the way during her fun scenes on Instagram.
The proud mother – who is herself the daughter of comedy legend Les Dawson – brought along son Noah as a cheerleader as she embarked on a video workout.
The exercises were from Chazza’s own Belleh Blaster plan and saw her do leg raises and lunges before twirling around the room.
Little Jew lay on his back and watched the funny scenes unfolding before him.
One fan praised her “reality,” writing in his Instagram comment, “I love how real you are, fair play, my oldest is 13 and I still haven’t found the motivation.”
A second added: “Charlotte I f***ing love you, incredibly, truly across the board, your dad will be so proud of his girl.”
A third added: “You bring so much sunshine into our lives. You are great.”
