Former Geordie Shore star Charlotte Crosby has announced she's expecting a baby girl with her boyfriend Jake Ankers.

Sharing the news in an Instagram live video last Sunday (June 19), Crosby posted from her rooftop gender reveal party, attended by friends and family, to her 7.9million followers.

The video showed an aeroplane circling above the party writing the baby's sex in the sky as pink confetti filled the air.

Crosby then shared a photo from the event, captioned: "To our little girlie. You're so precious to us already, my shining little star. The world is yours for the taking. Words can not describe how excited we are to meet you little superstar."

Her friends and former co-stars were quick to congratulate the reality star on the news. "Congratulations guys! So happy for you both," Marnie Simpson commented.
