Guess who stole the spotlight at the 2025 BAFTA Cymru Awards? Charlotte Church’s son, Dexter, that’s who! The 16-year-old made a rare red carpet appearance, standing tall (literally!) alongside his famous mum. Rocking a smart black suit, Dexter didn’t just impress with his outfit—he’s the spitting image of his dad, former rugby star Gavin Henson.
Charlotte and Gavin, once the “it” couple of Wales, may have parted ways back in 2010, but they’ve certainly grown into their roles as proud parents. While Charlotte dazzled at the awards, presenting the Television Drama award, Dexter was the talk of the town, reminding everyone of Gavin’s glory days.
These days, Gavin is more about pulling pints than tackles, running a pub in the Vale of Glamorgan with his wife Katie. Meanwhile, Charlotte, the angelic voice that captured hearts at 12, has pivoted to a life of music therapy at her own retreat. But she’s not entirely out of the showbiz scene—keep an eye on her as she joins the exciting cast of Celebrity Traitors alongside stars like Alan Carr and Stephen Fry.
The former power couple seems to have nailed the art of co-parenting. Despite their split, they’ve managed to maintain an amicable bond for the sake of their children. It’s all about growth and gratitude—true inspo for all parents!
Who knew the BAFTA Cymru Awards would double as a nostalgic trip down memory lane with a glimpse into the future? We can’t wait to see more of Dexter and the exciting ventures of Charlotte and Gavin. Let us know what you think!
