Kaya Scodelario has announced that she’s pregnant with her first child.

The former Skins actress, 24, has revealed that she’s expecting a baby with her husband Benjamin Walker.

Confirming the news with a cryptic post on Instagram, the British star posed with her other half and their dog on the beach while holding her stomach.

She wrote: “I love you @findthewalker I love our little family.”

Walker then posted a similar photo, under the caption: “Happy summer from the four of us.. I love you @kayascods.”

Scodelario tied the knot with 33-year-old actor Walker in December 2015, after becoming engaged the previous Christmas.

The pair kept their nuptials under the radar, only announcing that they had wed on Instagram in early 2016.

The couple met while filming The Moon and the Sun in April 2014, with Walker reportedly popping the question just a few months later.

Walker was previously married to Meryl Streep’s daughter Mamie Gummer but the pair announced their separation and plans to divorce in 2013.
