The star has been open about her tough fertility journey STAR BABY Peaky Blinders' Charlie Murphy reveals she's given birth to her first baby with Father's Day post to director boyfriend Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) PEAKY Blinders star Charlie Murphy has revealed she's given birth as she shared a sweet photo of her baby in a Father's Day post. Last month, Charlie, 37, announced she and director fiancé Sam Yates were expecting a baby after reaching the end of two years of fertility treatment. 4 Peaky Blinders' Charlie Murphy reveals she's given birth to her first baby Credit: Instagram 4 Charlie and fiance Sam Yates announced they were expecting a baby last month Credit: Getty On Sunday, the actress surprised fans after she shared a photo of her newborn in a blue baby grow. The TV star covered her child's face with a baby emoji. The little one was placed on a fluffy yellow rug, with a stuff duck toy nearby and their pet dog keeping watch. She captioned it: "Happy 1st Father's Day Sam Yates." In May, Charlie confirming her happy pregnancy news. She admitted she tried to hold back on the celebrations following hers and Sam's tough journey. "I was happy obviously, but I did have to remind myself not to celebrate too much," she said. "Maybe it was PTSD of doing a few rounds of IVF. "That was gruelling. 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." Charlie, who has also starred in Happy Valley and Netflix's Obsession, revealed her pregnancy to The Irish Times. Sophie Rundle Welcomes Second Son: A Peek into Her Joy In a candid chat about her experience of conceiving, the star admitted she and director Sam had also endured a heartbreaking miscarriage. She described it as a tragic but "common" occurrence during fertility treatment and said she is "glad" the subject is being talked about more these days. Recalling her own experience of IVF, Charlie told the publication: "It felt like I was at the casino and throwing the dice to invest in another round, emotionally, financially and time-wise. "And when the last couple of rounds didn't result in anything, I felt cheated. It felt tough, arduous and monotonous." Charlie, who played Jessie Eden in Peaky Blinders, has been in a relationship with Sam since 2019. The couple live together in a house they bought in Stoke Newington, London, although Charlie previously spent time living on a canal boat. Meanwhile, last month The Sun exclusively revealed that Peaky Blinders is set to return to BBC One. The crime drama, set in the 1920s and 30s, is being planned to air in 2026 - and following the release of a Peaky Blinders feature film later this year. The BBC are hoping to capitalise on a new wave of interest that the movie will bring to the show. The upcoming film, titled The Immortal Man, is set during the Second World War. The new series is likely to move the Birmingham gangsters into the Fifties — an era known for violent mobs of Teddy Boys and the rise of notorious East London villains the Kray twins. A TV insider told us: 'The sixth series of Peaky Blinders was supposed to be the last and the movie was meant to be the final farewell for the story. 'But show boss Steven Knight couldn't resist coming back to the story — his most famous creation — and he's been dropping hints he wanted to return to do more. 'But the fact that it's been officially green-lit by the Beeb and wheels are in motion on pre- production will be a huge thrill to fans of the show, which was a huge hit for the BBC.' Cast and crew are due to start filming the new series of Peaky Blinders in September. 4 The couple have been open about their tough fertility jourey Credit: Getty
