Charlotte, 24, and Gavin, 28, have two children, Ruby, 2, and Dexter, 1.

“To the outside world they were a golden couple,” the source continues. “The truth is, they had the same insecurities as anyone else. Charlotte is very headstrong. In the end, Gav found it too much. He was blaming her for his rugby career stalling. She hated him going out drinking with mates.”

Charlotte Church Announces Engagement!

Rugby star Gavin Henson proposed to Charlotte Church with a two-carat heart-shaped ring on February 21, her 24th birthday.

The couple plans to marry on a remote island with their children, Ruby, two, and Dexter, 15 months.

Gavin said he softened Charlotte up for the proposal by taking her out on a drinking binge the night before. He said, “When she’s hung over and feeling a bit sketchy she’s a lot more touchy-feely and lovey so I thought she’ll definitely say yes then.”

“After lunch Gavin said, ‘Let’s go for a walk’. Then he started saying, ‘We’ve been together five years, we’ve had good times and hard times but it’s mostly been good,” Charlotte relayed to OK!. “I think we’re meant to be together for the rest of our lives’. I was a bit confused. He never says anything like that. Then he went down on one knee and said, ‘Will you marry me?’”

Charlotte Church: I'm Pregnant!!

Singer-turned-TV presenter Charlotte Chruch is expecting her first child with rugby player boyfriend Gavin Henson! Announced via her official website:

Charlotte has asked us to bring you the news exclusively today via CharlotteChurch.com that she is pregnant. For reasons of privacy, Charlotte has chosen not to comment on this matter, other than to confirm that she and her boyfriend, Gavin Henson, are delighted. In an ideal world, we would not have made this announcement so early in the pregnancy. However, due to recent speculation and persistent questions from the media about this most private of matters, Charlotte felt she had no choice other than to go public and she was keen to ensure that her fans had the opportunity to read the truth here first.

Charlotte, who recently turned 21 on Feb. 21, has been dating Gavin, 25, for two years. Tabloids have been speculating her pregnancy since Charlotte‘s birthday after she canceled her big birthday bash and did not drink alcohol during recent birthday festivities.

Congratulations to the happy couple!
