On juggling her career with being pregnant, the Broadway star recalled: ‘That last week was a bit of a blur – I remember waddling off set at the end of one day and Domhnall going, “Oh my God, you are SO pregnant…”. The actress, who also starred in TV dramas Penny Dreadful and Dublin Murders, said she’s set to return to work in June, after wrapping up filming for her new Channel 4 comedy series Frank of Ireland with Domhnall and Brian Gleeson late last year. We’ve had lovely bonding time, the three of us getting to know each other, but I can’t wait to show off a bit now.’

On her parenthood journey, she told iNews: ‘We haven’t seen my family for months. Irish actress Sarah Greene has revealed she welcomed her first child in January after a secret pregnancy. The Cork actress, who previously dated Aidan Turner – who married Caitlin FitzGerald recently – leads a relatively private life and the identity of her ‘musician partner’ is currently unclear.
