She wrote in the caption, “I always thought pregnancy was an incredibly private journey.

“I’ve resisted sharing mine on social media, but with two weeks to go until we meet our little boy, I figured why not.

Plus some incredibly thoughtful friends decided to give me a ‘low key’ surprise baby shower that wasn’t low key at all (looking at you @jahjahwalsh @oliwalsh @jasonstraker @jimmyslocum @charlotteelliswatson)

“I wanted to try something different. And we are married too. It was a quiet ceremony in London, but it was truly beautiful. It was amazing.’

Jack plays dentist Christopher Dockerill in Call The Midwife and dates Trixie [Helen George] on the series.

Camilla’s Holby character has made a comeback, pregnant – after she was last seen leaving her husband in the UK.

‘Viewers won’t know who the father is, but a handsome American doctor also shows up. Everyone thinks it’s his kid,” the actor teased.

The return of Dr. March came after her stay on the show thus far has tackled the character’s struggles with bipolar disorder.

On the show, she became an excessive drinker and took drugs — and the storyline explored the stigma associated with the disease and lithium treatment. This, in turn, has been praised by charities and mental health organizations.

The actress announced last September that she would be reprising the role, but it is said that it will only be as a guest star for a limited time.

Executive producer Simon Harper said the character returned due to “popular demand.”
