The former Geordie Shore star, 32, claimed she was ‘heartbroken’ after the death of her ‘brave’ grandparent, sharing a sweet video montage.

In the caption of her latest post, she wrote, “My little grandma Jean ❤️ Heartbroken is nowhere near how I feel. The love of my life and the light of my life.’
“From a little girl to now I have adored every inch of you. My brave strong grandma. My beautiful grandmother. You were there when I entered the world and I was there when you took your last breath and left ❤️
“I don’t think my world will ever be the same without you. I named my daughter after you Grandma for a reason. I don’t think you’ll ever really know how much I loved and adored you and still do.
“So many memories and this video is just a glimpse of them and it’s where I can watch and relive them constantly, it’s where I can visit you whenever I want ❤️

“What I would give for one more day, one more hour even with you. I miss you grandma. I hope to see you again one day because I’m already longing to hear you say ‘hello my love’ when I come in to see you ❤️
“Please hold tight to your loved ones, because life is really precious.”
It comes after Charlotte raised concerns among fans when she asked them to pray for Jean during a recent trip to the hospital to see her relative.
The reason for her treatment was not disclosed, but she did write: Another ride to the hospital. I kind of feel like I spent more time in hospitals this year than in my own home.

Charlotte revealed she was expecting her first child in May with beau Jake, whom she has been dating for a year.
The star previously shared how she decided to try for a baby in December 2021, not long after the couple started their relationship.
The couple then decided to give up trying, realizing it was pretty soon in their romance to welcome a child, and bought ovulation sticks to forego sex on her fertile days.
But then on Valentine’s Day in February, Charlotte thought it odd when she wasn’t in the mood to drink or have sex during a surprisingly romantic getaway to a posh London hotel. Then she realized she was pregnant.
Charlotte revealed the happy news on YouTube in May when she shared a clip of the moment she found out while in a bathroom.
The reality star recorded herself looking at her test result for the first time, which came out positive in the emotional video.
The new mom looked totally stunned as she stood in her bathroom with her hand over her mouth.
In the clip, Charlotte could be seen pacing before calling her boyfriend Jake to come into the room looking totally surprised.
She captioned the post: “A moment I wasn’t sure would ever be mine is here, it’s mine (and Jake’s) and I couldn’t be happier to share it with all of you… I get a baby.’

Following a baby scan during an outing in Dubai, the influencer said she was “nervous” following her ectopic pregnancy in 2016 – after becoming pregnant by her ex-boyfriend Gaz Beadle.
Before her gender reveal party, Charlotte and Jake threw a lavish party at the rooftop bar of the Vermont Hotel in Newcastle.
She spared no expense, with the venue boasting a delicious-looking donut wall and a gender prediction board.
Charlotte revealed her baby’s gender by enlisting the help of a skywriter to draw a heart in the sky.
It later flew back to draw the letter “G” in water vapor in the clear blue sky.

As the letter became clear, pink confetti was launched from a cannon over Charlotte, Jake, and their friends.
Last week, Charlotte’s dad Gary was the loving grandfather by all accounts when he babysat her newborn daughter Alba Jean for the first time.
Gary shared with fans the very first look at Alba Jean’s face, who had previously loved social media.
“Getting the Old Skills Back Pop-Pop #Granddaughter,” his sweet post read.
In the sweet photo, Gary posed for a selfie as he cradled the newborn on his chest.

Underneath, Charlotte’s mother Letitia Crosby, who is bravely battling breast cancer, said she was jealous he got to babysit the tiny toddler first.
“I can’t believe you’re the first babysitter like me [am] honest, but we knew she was in good hands,” she wrote.
She was soon allowed to hold the newborn though, as Charlotte shared a sweet photo of her mom rocking the little one.
“Family is everything,” the caption read.
Charlotte welcomed her daughter Alba Jean with beau Jake Ankers on Oct. 15.
She took to Instagram earlier this month to share her first toddler video as she settled into life as a new mom.
The reality star tenderly shows off her baby daughter’s tiny hands and feet, declaring them “details she’ll always remember.”
The Geordie Shore star also lovingly ran her hand over her daughter’s dark hair as she made the most of every moment since her arrival last month.
Baby Alba was dressed in a striped baby bodysuit and Charlotte chose not to show her face to the camera.
She captioned the sweet clip: “Love you so much Alba Jeanie.”
