Irish actor Saoirse Ronan is reported to be pregnant with her first child with her husband, fellow actor Jack Lowden.
Media reports quote a source close to the couple confirming their exciting news. It comes as Ronan was pictured at the Louis Vuitton Cruise at Palais Des Papes in France yesterday, wearing a flowing black gown.
Ronan, 31, who has been nominated for an Oscar four times, tied the knot with her
co-star last year.Last October she said she feels “fortunate” that she will be able to step away from her Hollywood career to have children without having to give up acting for good.

Ronan told
: “I became successful when I was quite young. So it meant that, actually, by the time I found my partner, I’m now at the stage where, if it happened, I would like to have a kid.“I feel fortunate enough that, if I step out of this for a minute, I’m hopefully not giving it up forever. But, yeah, I’ve always wanted that.”
She and Lowden also worked together in Scotland on She told the :
."I think there is such a romance to Scotland, and I don't mean the shortbread and tartan version. Historically, going back much further there's a darkness and beauty as well as a connection to the land, like in Ireland. Mystery is also part of that, it's in the people. Jack and I want that to be explored more and more, there is such a rich storytelling culture.
