Felicity Jones Welcomed Her First Child With Husband Charles Guard
Felicity Jones and her husband, Charles Guard, have welcomed their first child together. People reports that Jones and Guard, a film director, were seen together in London pushing a baby carriage. While neither has commented publicly on the news, the Daily Mail published the photos. Thanks to her keeping a low profile during the coronavirus pandemic, it's unclear when she gave birth.
Jones confirmed her pregnancy last December, just after the New York City premiere for her film The Aeronauts. She and Guard were married in 2018 after nearly three years of dating.
In a 2016 interview with Harper's Bazaar, Jones explained that she was not hesitant to have children as an actor, saying that times had changed and being pregnant and having kids was no longer seen as a hindrance to having a career.

"Fortunately, I feel like we're in a new era, where it is empowering rather than limiting to have children," she said. "From what I can see from friends and relatives, women get stronger and more decisive from having children — they don't waste their time doing things they don't want to."
According to Deadline, Jones is set to star in a new film adaptation of Swan Lake, the ballet by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. The last time the ballet was on the big screen was in 2010, when it was featured in Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan.
