Charlotte Church Makes Television Comeback While Expanding Her Welsh Wellness Empire
From Child Prodigy to Wellness Advocate
Charlotte Maria Church, the Welsh singer-songwriter, actress, and television presenter from Cardiff, has experienced a remarkable year in 2025, balancing television appearances with her growing wellness venture. The former classical music sensation, who rose to fame at age 11, continues to reinvent herself while staying true to her Welsh roots.
Television Return in Celebrity Traitors
In May 2025, Church was announced as a contestant on the first series of The Celebrity Traitors, where she was selected as a Faithful but was the fourth contestant to be “murdered” by Traitors Alan Carr, Jonathan Ross and Cat Burns in the fifth episode. In September 2025, Church was announced to appear in the seventh series of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK as a special celebrity guest during a makeover challenge, demonstrating her continued presence in mainstream entertainment.
Expanding The Dreaming Wellness Retreat
The acclaimed Welsh artist and campaigner has announced the 2025 programme of retreats and activities at The Dreaming. This year’s specialist and recurring retreats include Weekly Retreats, Mother & Daughter retreat, Charlotte Church led Song of the Soul, Returning to the Queer Heart, Beltaine Retreat, Dreams of Ananda, Day Retreats, Belonging Family Retreat, A Call To Dream, Samhain Retreat and Grief Retreat. 2025 has seen Church, who facilitates many of the retreats herself, add even more to the programme, with signature three-day retreats acting as digital detoxes and Song of the Soul being exclusively led by Church.
A Life Lived on Her Own Terms
Church’s transformation from child star to activist and wellness entrepreneur reflects her commitment to living authentically. The singer revealed last year that she is ‘no longer’ a millionaire, downsizing her mansion to a semi-detached house and explaining she’d ‘basically given all my money away’. Her journey continues to inspire those seeking alternative paths beyond traditional celebrity culture, demonstrating that success can be redefined on personal terms. As 2025 progresses, Charlotte Church remains a significant figure in Welsh culture, seamlessly blending entertainment, activism, and holistic wellness.
