Call The Midwife’s Jessica Raine pushes newborn baby in a pram as she’s seen for first time since giving birth
The 36-year-old actress only confirmed her pregnancy in January and has now given birth
CALL The Midwife's Jessica Raine has given birth to her first child and has been pictured pushing her newborn baby in a pram.
The 36-year-old actress, who played midwife Jenny Lee in the BBC drama until series three, only confirmed she was pregnant with her first child in mid-January.
She explained: "I was a bit tired but the worrying thing for production was there was a car race and stunt and I neglected to tell them I was pregnant when I took the job.
"I broke the news and everyone was amazing, we had to work out how to do a car chase without me being in any danger.
"Also my character is quite hard and being pregnant is quite emotional so it worked well, I was interested most in food on this job so my shirts get bigger as the series goes on."
Jessica first started dating Tom - who will soon be seen in new ITV drama Cheat alongside Katherine Kelly - in 2010.
The couple starred together in a play before marrying in 2015.
The Sun Online has contacted a representative for Jessica for comment.
