CHARLOTTE CHURCH - CHURCH'S MUM WORRIES ABOUT HOUSE HUNT

CHARLOTTE CHURCH's mother is desperately trying to curb her daughter's spending, because she's worried about the teen soprano's taste in houses.

The 18-year-old has just gained access to the musical fortune she made as a young singer, and is currently viewing houses.

However, mother and former manager MARIA is worried Charlotte is going to buy a house which is unsuitable for her needs.

A source says, "Maria just rolls her eyes when people ask how Charlotte's house hunting is going. She said, 'All the places she's looking at have six or seven bedrooms, and considering it's only Charlotte living there it's ridiculous.'

"Maria has made it pretty clear she thinks the homes Charlotte has been looking at are too much and over the top."
