Actress Tuppence Middleton, who stared in the 2019 Downton Abbey film, wrote: “Oh heaven! You look gorgeous Jessie. And so do they.”

Earlier this year, Brown Findlay opened up about going through IVF treatment in a candid Instagram post on International Women’s Day.

She posted a video of herself injecting the hormones into her stomach, and wrote: “We do hard things and then go dancing.

“IVF has made me even more aware of just how much women are capable of and what we can achieve whilst going through pain and heart break.
