'Peaky Blinders' actress set to welcome first child after five IVF rounds

Charlie Murphy is finally pregnant after undergoing five “intense” rounds of IVF over two years.

The 37-year-old star, who played Jessie Eden in Peaky Blinders, shared her pregnancy journey during an interview with the BBC.

“I was happy obviously, but I did have to remind myself not to celebrate too much,” said Charlie. “Maybe it was PTSD of doing a few rounds of IVF. That was grueling.”

“It was so intense that I was welcoming all the symptoms that come with a pregnancy, I was just so happy to be out of the rounds,” she continued.

"It felt like I was at the casino and throwing the dice to invest in another round, emotionally, financially and time-wise,” explained the actress. “And when the last couple of rounds didn't result in anything, I felt cheated. It felt tough, arduous and monotonous.”

"At the start I probably would have been very private about doing IVF, but I'm glad that people are talking about it now. Reaching out to other women that have been through it means you don't feel so alone,” added Charlie.

However, the Obsession actress has not revealed the delivery date yet.
