Kate Mara is pregnant.

The 39-year-old actress has confirmed via social media that she and husband Jamie Bell are expecting their second child together.

Alongside a photo of them walking together, Kate – who gave birth to her first child, a girl, in May 2019 – wrote on Instagram: ‘There are three of us in this photo (sic)’

The photo was taken at the end of June, when the couple – who married in 2017 – were spotted in London.

Kate and Jamie, 36 – who are best known for playing Billy Elliot in the coming-of-age comedy-drama film – were also recently spotted house hunting together in the UK capital.

Prior to that, the couple had put their Los Angeles home on the market for $3.2 million.

Meanwhile, Jamie revealed earlier this year that he first met his wife during a screen test for a film.

The duo both auditioned for a role in the Kimberly Peirce-directed film Stop-Loss, but they were both overlooked for the project.

He recalled, “We met in a screen test for a movie that neither of us got the part…in the end, but it was a row where they were testing, you know, just guys and girls like chemistry readings and chemistry tests and stuff. »

Jamie also remembered kissing Kate for the first time during the audition.

He shared: « It was that time when they were doing a lot of drama stories about the Iraq war, you know, it was in the late 2000s.

« Anyway, so, I had to come in, I had to, like…Kate had to do readings with eight guys or something. » There was a kiss in the scene and that’s what she says, I’m not making this up… She must have been dating – I think Justin Timberlake was there that day – must have been dating a bunch of guys , just for the stage.

“And apparently she went home. She recently told this spring break story to her mom. She said I was the best kisser that day.
