“I love swearing! It’s joyful,” singer-songwriter Charlotte Church admitted while appearing as a guest on the latest episode of Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett’s podcast Dish, which released on Wednesday, May 31. The 37-year-old, who hails from Cardiff, then recalled the first time that she swore.
“I had a little dolly when I was about three that you could like record sounds into,” Charlotte told Nick and Angela. “Very technological for like, ‘89. But you could record sounds into it. And my great auntie- so this is my nana’s sister, a naughty, mischievous woman, she’s amazing, Auntie Francis, and she used to record swear words into the doll.
“And so apparently when I was about three, I turned around to my nana, who had asked me to do something, and I was just like, ‘F*** you, nanny.’ So that was my first swear.” For more showbiz and television stories get our newsletter here.
