The Geordie Shore star revealed she had to undergo emergency surgery

She said: "[The pains started while] we were filming the advert for Geordie Shore: Big Birthday Battle [in early April 2016].

"I thought I had a really bad period because I was bleeding and cramping – I can't describe the pain, it was awful.

"It was really hard to walk because the pain was shooting down my leg...I was literally limping. It was the worst pain."

Charlotte had previously revealed Gary had stayed at her house the night before he left for Thailand and the pair had been thinking about making a proper go of their on-off relationship.

She said: "We'd had a couple of fall-outs, but we were the closest we'd ever been.

"There was one week where he slept at mine nearly every single night. Me mam and dad let him back in the house when they hated his guts. He didn't just betray my trust, he betrayed theirs."

Charlotte said she was so scared she wouldn't be able to have children after the surgery

The Geordie lass revealed she hadn't renewed her prescription for the pill and took the morning-after pill instead but not until the 72-hour window was almost up.

Four days after Gary left, the pain got so bad that Charlotte couldn't walk and she went straight to hospital.

She said: "[The doctor] put me in a wheelchair and I collapsed out of it. I was fitting on the floor and it was just so scary.

"I didn't know what the hell was going on and I was in so much pain. Then the X-ray showed how much damage had been caused. Because I'd left it a week, it'd torn open my fallopian tube and I was bleeding internally.

"He said: 'It's so dangerous. If you'd have left it any longer, you could have died.'

"I just burst into tears. I was just so scared."

She said: "I was so scared that I wasn't going to be able to have babies. I want to have children.

"Luckily, "they reassured me that I'd still be able to have children, I'd just have to try a bit harder".

The couple's romance has been documented on Geordie Shore

She wasn't able to speak to Gary until after the operation but eventually got him on the phone.

She said: "I was crying on the phone and he was being so lovely. That's what I don't understand. I was really in love with him.

"He said: 'I don't care how many fallopian tubes you've got.' He was saying stupid things, like, 'I'll make sure I have sex with you as much as I can to get you pregnant'."

Gary promised to fly home to be with her but decided to stay and film Ex on the Beach instead.

Her co-star Marnie Simpson then told her about what Gary had been up to with his co-stars and they stopped speaking.

She said: "I was heartbroken. Gary's hurt me a lot in the past, but this was a whole different type of hurt.

"We'd had a stronger connection this time around. But I thought, 'This is it now, this isn't forgiveable.' I could never go near him again. All the times before I knew we'd come back together somehow, but this time I knew that was it. Forever."
