Charlotte Dawson puts on a brave face for video with her two kids – after fiance Matt walked out amid sexting scandal
CHARLOTTE Dawson put on a brave face today as she enjoyed some quality time with her sons – after fiance Matt Sarfield walked out on them.
The TV star, 31, was left “blindsided and humiliated after pals told her that Matt had been sending another woman “dirty” texts.
Charlotte, who shares sons Noah and Jude with rugby player Matt, was seen enjoying cuddles with her little boys on Wednesday.
The doting mum was seen smiling as she spent the morning playing with her kids and putting her marital woes to one side.
She captioned the video: “Always fun and chaos every morning.”
It’s been a tough time for Charlotte as she navigates her life following Matt’s texting scandal.
Charlotte has been engaged to Matt since September 2020 but their romance is now very much on the rocks.
He now appears to have deactivated his Instagram amid the fallout.
At the weekend, Charlotte was left “in tears” after he “failed to show up” up their son’s birthday.
Charlotte vowed to “put her kids first” as she threw a lavish first birthday party for little boy Jude.
Whilst Matt has stayed silent having deleted his profile, Charlotte took to her own social media accounts to address the scandal.
She said: “I’m extremely hurt, upset and disappointed about the situation.
“I’ve had loads of messages regarding mine and Matthew’s relationship and I wanted to just be honest with all of you as I navigate through this.
“I was in complete shock and devastated.
“Whilst so many of you have been kind and caring, there have been a number of people that have said I’ve sold this story for money.
“This is completely false and I would never do this to my family or myself.
“The story was sold by the girl and I have no idea who she is.
“I’m extremely hurt, upset and disappointed about the situation.
“It’s hard enough going through something like this in private, let alone publicly.”
