The well-known child celebrity who gained fame as the Teletubbies’ Sun Baby has announced that she is expecting her first child.
Jess Smith, who became well-known for playing the Sun baby, has declared that she is starting her own family. The beloved children’s show featured the former television sensation, who is now in her late 20s, in every episode from 1997 to 2003.
When her sonogram was uploaded to Instagram on Wednesday, Jess excitedly captioned it, “When two becomes three,” with a sentimental message. She kindly tagged Ricky Latham in the post, her partner with whom she is currently in a committed long-term relationship.

Jess first showcased her extraordinary acting skills as a young child when she was 19 years old. Producers chose her at random as a result, making her the most recognizable baby on television. In order to find possible candidates for the position, they had gotten in touch with a nearby hospital.
She announced: “
‘So I’ve recently celebrated my 19th birthday and after a lot of thought, I’ve decided it’s time to tell everyone.
‘I used to hide it but after a lot of encouragement from my friends at university I’ve gained the confidence to come out with it.
‘I am the sun from Teletubbies.
‘There has been quite a few people pretending to be ‘the sun’ but onlyI could tell you the real story.’
When a local production company contacted the midwife looking for a “smiley baby,” she immediately suggested Jess’ name.
‘From then I had to go through auditions and short lists until they finally picked one person, ME!
‘While recording my dad held a teddy bear behind the camera to get me to laugh, and rolled a toy racing car to get me to look down at the camera, it obviously worked.’
