She wrote: It’s been a very long 5/6 weeks of on and off coughing/ chest infections. And the whole time I’ve been struggling I’ve been doing the very most work wise.
‘Travelling up and down the country, trains, cars and almost planes. A couple of occasions even losing my entire voice at work. I’ve not been able to carry out some of the stuff I’ve had to.’
The TV personality continued: ‘Only last week it just got so bad it was unbearable. Not even having 1 minute in between coughing fits!
‘After 2 courses of antibiotics failed to shift anything I finally realised I had to slow the f*** down and get to hospital…
‘So that’s where I spent most of yesterday in and out of doctors and hospital! with suspected pneumonia.
‘I’ve been able to come home now and rest at home with a new course of antibiotics. So this is where I shall be for the foreseeable.’
It comes after Charlotte broke down in tears during a live appearance This Morning when she revealed she wants more babies.

Through tears she continued: ‘Maybe in 2026 or 2027. I want five kids first! But I will settle for three.’
