Gemma Arterton Welcomes Second Child Secretly
15 Apr
Summary
- Actress Gemma Arterton has announced the birth of her second child.
- She is already a mother to a son born in 2024.
- Arterton and her husband moved to the countryside four years ago.

Actress Gemma Arterton has revealed she has secretly welcomed her second child with husband Rory Keenan. The couple, who married in 2019, are now parents to two children, having welcomed their firstborn son in 2024. Arterton shared on a podcast that she is immersed in the demands of early motherhood once more. She described the experience as lovely, albeit challenging, returning to the familiar cycle of exhaustion that comes with a newborn. The family made a significant lifestyle change four years ago, moving from busy London to the countryside. This transition has meant adapting to a more rural existence, with Arterton humorously noting the lack of readily available sushi and good pasta, though they do enjoy the local gastropub fare and roasts. The move has also curbed their previous spending on takeaways, as Rory now handles most of the cooking. Arterton, who previously expressed uncertainty about motherhood, has embraced her role as a mother. Her career highlights include her breakthrough role in 'Quantum of Solace' and upcoming appearances in the spy thriller 'Secret Service'.
