Pregnant Charlotte Crosby at home when 'masked raiders with a machete' break in

Four thugs have allegedly attempted to rob a pregnant Geordie Shore star's home. Charlotte Crosby's furious partner Jake Ankers said one of the masked raiders had been 'armed with a machete'.

Jake told his Instagram followers he had chased the intruders out of the house, as he revealed Charlotte, who is eight months pregnant, and their two-year-old daughter, Alba, had been there at the time. He said: "I didn't think I'd be saying this but some little c**** have tried to rob my house, with my f****** two-year-old in the house, and my partner who is nearly eight months pregnant, armed with a machete."

He continued: "I chased all four of them and I couldn't catch them. One of them who was in the house at the top of the stairs had a red balaclava on. He is the one that had the machete."
