The 39-year-old actress - who already has one daughter with husband Christian Contreras - revealed that she is pregnant by holding her bump through a wide flowing dress designed by CIMONE as she arrived on the red carpet at the 2022 Brit Awards with Mastercard.

Creative Director Carli Pearson explained in an Instagram post: "The beautiful #jodiewhittaker in our custom-made beanbag ball dress for #thebritawards2022 @britawardsinc - the dress is all made from end-of-life materials and was created specifically to incorporate her pregnancy, while allowing Jodie to retain her sense of self."

The creative director went on to explain that they have worked with the 'Doctor Who' star before and explained that the company wanted to create something "special" for Jodie.

She continued: "We’ve worked with Jodie before and love the energy she brings to our piece For this occasion, we wanted to make something both structured and yet playful - and this is the result!

We chose orange because it is a powerful and divisive colour, you either love it or hate it – it’s flamboyant, determined, and designed to make a splash – it’s not a colour for a wallflower

Jodie was at the awards to present the award for Best International Artist, which was won by American superstar Billie Eilish.

While the 'Happier than Ever' hitmaker, 20, could not be there in person, she sent a video message thanking her fans in the UK, noting that she "can't wait" to take to the Pyramid stage at Glastonbury later this year.

"Thank you so much. I feel so lucky to be awarded this again, I don't feel deserving. I love you guys. I love my fans in the UK so much and I can't wait to come see you at Glastonbury!"
