Biography :
Church was born Charlotte Maria Reed in Llandaff, a district of Cardiff,
Wales. She was raised a Roman Catholic by her mother, Maria, who was
separated from Church's biological father. Church was legally adopted
by her mother's second husband, James Church in 1998. Her big break came
at the age of 11 when she sang "Pie Jesu" on the television
show Talking Telephone Numbers in 1997, closely followed by her performance
on ITV's Big, Big Talent Show in 1998. |
| This led to concerts at Cardiff Arms Park, Royal Albert Hall
and the opening spot for Shirley Bassey in Antwerp. She also received a
vocal scholarship to Howell's Girls School in Cardiff where she started
in 1998. She balanced performing and school with help from tutors for when
she was on the road and said in many interviews that she was "just
like every other girl her age". |
| Church has lent her support to the production of limited-edition
T-shirts or vests for the 'Little Tee Campaign' for Breast Cancer Care
which donates money for breast cancer research. She has also been a long
time and very visible supporter of the Noah's Ark Appeal to build a children's
hospital in Wales. Read
