She has daughters Edie, four, and Delilah, born last year, with her husband, James Righton.
‘That was a choice,’ she said of her decision not to undress on camera any more.
‘I get to choose the body double. It is an interesting selection process! It kind of goes like, ”That’s a little bit like you, but better. She has a lovely body, so she can do this”… then I get final approval of what the edit is.”
She told The Times: ‘I have been comfortable earlier with more nudity than I am now. I have had a kid, I am in my thirties, I am very happy with my body.
