KEIRA Knightley is a mum.

The Imitation Game star and her musician husband James Righton have reportedly welcomed their first child.

There’s no word on the baby’s sex yet, but Knightley did admit to Ellen in February that she was slightly worried at the prospect of having a boy.

“Somebody said to me the other day, the problem with boys is, sorry, this is horrible, but when you’re changing their nappies, you can get the wee in your face,” she said.

One thing’s for sure, Knightley will no doubt be looking forward to having a celebratory drink in the not too distant future.

As she said to Ellen a few months ago, “I just want a margarita!”

The actress has been married to Klaxons co-vocalist James Righton since May 2013.
