Jessica confirmed her pregnancy during a red carpet appearance at the closing ceremony of the Venice Film Festival in September.

The actress previously revealed that she had undergone four IVF treatments in hopes of having her first child, sharing her fertility journey with her social media followers in a candid post earlier this year.

She shared insight into her fertility struggles with a candid Instagram post to celebrate International Women’s Day, along with a video of her administering hormone injections.

In the post, Jessica shared a sped-up video of her injecting the hormones into her stomach, which usually increases the number of eggs produced by the ovaries.

The star posted an impassioned caption to remind her followers that “their bodies aren’t the enemy,” while also revealing she’s in her fourth round of IVF treatment.

She wrote: ‘Happy International Women’s Day! We do hard things and then we dance.

‘IVF has made me even more aware of how much women are capable of and what we can achieve while going through pain and heartbreak.

Your body is not the enemy. Love it. Does not matter what. Sending love and support to every woman I’ve ever met and all those I don’t have, but know what this is.’

Jessica tied the knot with husband Ziggy in a low-key 2020 wedding with just 30 guests due to Covid restrictions, three years after meeting on the Hulu drama Harlots.

Last week, Jessica revealed she struggled to find work after getting pregnant.

Her acting career began when she played the role of rebellious aristocrat Lady Sybil Crawley in Downton Abbey.

She said, “I had hoped to work more on this side of having babies, but I can’t. It is very difficult to insure pregnant women on set – and since Covid it has become even more difficult because you are considered an even greater risk.”

Jessica said even her voiceover work has dried up. She told The Sunday Times’ Culture magazine: “It’s shocking.”

She also spoke of the “crushing depth of shame” she felt when private nude photos of her and others appeared online in a 2014 iCloud leak.

The actress said the incident would have been handled differently following the #MeToo movement.

She added: “Women would not have lost job opportunities and been trafficked on the dark web for a month before being leaked to the public because bodies are commodities.”

Jessica currently stars alongside Anthony Welsh in the Paramount+ romantic comedy series The Flatshare, an adaptation of Beth O’Leary’s worldwide bestseller.

The series follows Leon (Welsh) and Jessica (Findlay) as they share a single room but have not met due to their opposing work schedules.

But as Post-it Notes begin to fly between them and they are unexpectedly drawn into each other’s messy, complex lives, an attraction evolves backwards. The question is, can you really fall in love with someone you’ve never met?
