On Sunday, the actress surprised fans after she shared a photo of her newborn in a blue baby grow.
The TV star covered her child's face with a baby emoji.
The little one was placed on a fluffy yellow rug, with a stuff duck toy nearby and their pet dog keeping watch.
She captioned it: "Happy 1st Father's Day Sam Yates."
In May, Charlie confirming her happy pregnancy news.
She admitted she tried to hold back on the celebrations following hers and Sam's tough journey.
"I was happy obviously, but I did have to remind myself not to celebrate too much," she said.
"Maybe it was PTSD of doing a few rounds of IVF.
"That was gruelling. It was so intense that I was welcoming all the symptoms that come with a pregnancy, I was just so happy to be out of the rounds."
Charlie, who has also starred in Happy Valley and Netflix 's Obsession, revealed her pregnancy to The Irish Times.

In a candid chat about her experience of conceiving, the star admitted she and director Sam had also endured a heartbreaking miscarriage.
She described it as a tragic but "common" occurrence during fertility treatment and said she is "glad" the subject is being talked about more these days.
Recalling her own experience of IVF, Charlie told the publication: "It felt like I was at the casino and throwing the dice to invest in another round, emotionally, financially and time-wise.
"And when the last couple of rounds didn't result in anything, I felt cheated. It felt tough, arduous and monotonous."
Charlie, who played Jessie Eden in Peaky Blinders, has been in a relationship with Sam since 2019.
The couple live together in a house they bought in Stoke Newington, London, although Charlie previously spent time living on a canal boat.
Meanwhile, last month The Sun exclusively revealed that Peaky Blinders is set to return to BBC One.
The crime drama, set in the 1920s and 30s, is being planned to air in 2026 - and following the release of a Peaky Blinders feature film later this year.
The BBC are hoping to capitalise on a new wave of interest that the movie will bring to the show.
The upcoming film, titled The Immortal Man, is set during the Second World War.
The new series is likely to move the Birmingham gangsters into the Fifties — an era known for violent mobs of Teddy Boys and the rise of notorious East London villains the Kray twins.
A TV insider told us: 'The sixth series of Peaky Blinders was supposed to be the last and the movie was meant to be the final farewell for the story.
'But show boss Steven Knight couldn't resist coming back to the story — his most famous creation — and he's been dropping hints he wanted to return to do more.
'But the fact that it's been officially green-lit by the Beeb and wheels are in motion on pre- production will be a huge thrill to fans of the show, which was a huge hit for the BBC.'
Cast and crew are due to start filming the new series of Peaky Blinders in September.

The secret way you can get £5 vouchers from H&M AND clean out your wardrobe – and you can do it six times a month too
DO you have a mega pile of clothes you no longer wear? Chances are you've come across Vinted - one of the biggest apps where thrifty fashionistas sell their pre-loved garments. 4 4 But while your items may be gorgeous, there's not always a guarantee you'll be able to sell them. Luckily, there's still an easy way to give your wardrobe a mega clearout - and get £5 vouchers in the process. This is thanks to H&M Garment Collecting & Recycling scheme. The way it works is straightforward too - simply hand in a full bag of unwanted clothes from any brand at the tills in the store and you can get a voucher giving you £5 off when you spend at least £25. One person who recently took advantage of the incredible offer is Holly Grace, 25, who shared the process on TikTok. ''I had loads of unwanted clothes that I wanted to get rid of and couldn't sell at the boot fair,'' she said in the video. ''So I decided to bag up my clothes and take them to H&M where you can get a £5 voucher for every bag that you take in.'' What's more, she told fellow fashionistas on the platform, shoppers can do this up to a whopping six times every month - saving themselves a fortune. The scheme is great if you've been eyeing up a more expensive garment, such as a stylish autumn coat, and want to slash the bill a little. H&M takes the textiles and recycles them into other products such as cleaning cloths. Fashion lovers rush to M&S to snap up perfect pumps that are 'so pretty' for summer - and they come in various colours to match your vibe Clothing in better condition could end up being marketed as second-hand clothing. When dropping off the unwanted goods, there's no need to limit yourself to just H&M garments - these can be by any brand. ''I took Primark PJs, unbranded joggers,'' Holly said in the clip. ''You basically just have to download the app and present your carrier bags and then they'll do it for you at the till. ''They scan your little QR code on the Members side of the app- and then the vouchers will literally go straight on there.'' How to look chic on a budget Fashion stylist Gemma Rose Breger, and beauty journalist Samantha Silver revealed how you can make your outfits elevated without spending hundreds of pounds. Don't ever spend on designer denim: River Island ''always has such a great selection of fashion-forward jeans that follow the current trends''. The high street retailer offers a great range of sizes to fit UK 6 - UK 18, and three leg lengths - and prices start from an affordable £25. There are no rules for jewels: ''Pick up something at a car boot sale, or charity shop, scroll on Vinted & eBay, snap up something from the clothing section in your local supermarket when doing the food shop or check out high street clothing stores.'' Don't forget the pre-loved sites: With a rising number of second-hand sites, such as Vinted and Depop, there's no excuse for not buying - or selling - pre-loved garments. Gemma, for instance, has managed to get her hands on chic Chanel sunnies for a mere £17. This means that every time you spend £25 or more shopping at the retailer, you'll get £5 off - which you can use in-store and online. However, it's worth noting that some customers have warned you can only use one voucher per purchase - and they also expire. Holly wrote in the caption: ''Yes, I also have bags full for the charity shop.'' The clip has taken the internet by storm, winning the H&M fan a whopping 12k views in just one day. One person claimed that there's a rival store that runs a similar scheme. 4

Tyson Fury's family left 'TERRIFIED' as their private jet is forced to land due to technical 'problem' with the wing - after he married wife Paris for a THIRD time in the South of France
Tyson Fury 's private jet was forced to make an emergency landing after a technical issue in an ordeal that left the legendary boxer 'terrified'. Fury, 37, was travelling with his family after he married his wife Paris for the third time in recent days in an intimate ceremony in the south of France, 17 years after they first tied the knot. Fury had posted several celebratory and idyllic photos of himself, Paris and their seven kids from the festivities, but their attempts to return home were hampered. As they were flying back to the UK, an issue on board the aircraft they were on meant the Fury family had to turn around mid-air and return to their take-off point. Updating fans on his Instagram story from the plane, Fury opened up the situation. 'So, we've travelled 100 miles on the plane,' a concerned Fury said in a clip that he had captioned 'bad news'. The couple were joined by children, Prince John James, 13, Prince Tyson II, eight, Valencia seven, Prince Adonis Amaziah, six, Athena, three, Prince Rico, 22-months, and Venezuela, 15 'And the captain's come over to me and said "we've got to turn this plane around because there's a problem with one of the wings and it won't fix on the computer so we've got to try and get back and turn around". Fury then bowed his head and let out a wry smile before he expressed how he was feeling. 'Talk about totally s****ing yourself,' Fury added. 'So we're now spinning the plane around and going back to the airport where we started. Terrifying.' In other clips from his Instagram page, Fury could be seen travelling with his family on board the luxurious jet. He didn't provide another update on the plane situation, although he posted several other stories across Wednesday night. Meanwhile, Fury and Paris first married in 2008 when she was just 19 and he was 21-years-old during a ceremony in Doncaster. They later renewed their vows in April 2013 in New York City. At the romantic ceremony this week, which took place in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, the couple were joined by their children, Prince John James, 13, Prince Tyson II, eight, Valencia, seven, Prince Adonis Amaziah, six, Athena, three, Prince Rico, 22-months, and their eldest Venezuela, 15. Sharing a series of stunning snaps to his 6.7million followers on Instagram, Tyson wrote: 'Paris & I got married again third time lucky. After the third wedding, the happy couple both shared several intimate snaps of the ceremony 'We had the most beautiful day in the south of France (sic) it holds a lot of special memories for us.' The post was accompanied by Bruno Mars' popular song 'Marry You'. The event took place in a scenic French church and it seemed to be a family affair, with just their children in attendance. The Gypsy King was wearing a cream shirt, white shorts and sandals for the ceremony, while Paris was in a white dress. Speaking about renewing their vows in January, Paris had told OK!: 'I don't want a big ceremony or a big wedding, I'd like something private with just me and him. 'It'll be nice to reaffirm our vows. If he had his way he'd have it like a circus – a whole Big Fat Gypsy Wedding again! But I think I'll go subtle.' Elsewhere, Fury remains officially retired from boxing after his bombshell decision in January, which came weeks after his second defeat by Oleksandr Usyk. But, there are continuous rumours the 37-year-old will make a return to the ring, with his promoter Frank Warren last month saying: 'He's made it clear he wants to fight Usyk.'

Brian Cox: Braveheart is a lie
Braveheart is 'a lie', Brian Cox has said. The Scottish actor, who starred in Succession, said the Mel Gibson film about William Wallace had a 'crap' script and was historically inaccurate. Speaking at the Edinburgh International Book Festival, he said: 'The film is just bollocks. It doesn't make any sense.' Cox, 79, appeared in the 1995 historical epic despite initially turning the role down to appear in a film about Rob Roy, the 17th century outlaw. He said Gibson pleaded with him to take a role in Braveheart. 'I said, 'Well, there is a very good part at the beginning, a guy called Argyle but I'm wrong for him because he should be cadaverous and thin',' Cox said. 'And he said: 'No, you can play it'.' Cox played Argyle Wallace, the uncle of the main character, in the film about the Scottish wars of independence in the 13th and 14th centuries. He added: 'I just didn't want to be in a kilt. Of course they didn't have kilts in those days but they had to have kilts [in the film] because that is what it is about.' Braveheart, which won five Academy Awards, has been criticised for not strictly following historical fact. It contained an invented romance between Wallace and Isabella of France, depicted Scots wearing tartan before it was invented and showed them using tactics in the set piece battle against the English army that they did not use. The script was based on a 15th century poem called The Wallace, written by a minstrel called Blind Harry. 'Mel is wonderful to work with,' Cox said. 'He gets a bad rap but actually he is a really good man. I saw him deal with some lads [on the film] who were alcoholically inclined and he used to deal with them absolutely beautifully.' Sharon L. Krossa, a medieval historian and Braveheart detractor, has previously said: 'The events aren't accurate, the dates aren't accurate, the characters aren't accurate, the names aren't accurate, the clothes aren't accurate – in short, just about nothing is accurate.' The film was blamed in the run up to the 2014 Scottish independence referendum for a rise in anti-British sentiment. Stanley Baxter, the comedian, said it was 'to do with these dreadful films they've made, anti-English films and that wretched Australian [Mel Gibson] – Braveheart – it's not even correct historically'.
