Karen Gillan is pregnant.

The 36-year-old actress is expecting her first child with husband Nick Kocher and she showed off her baby bump on the red carpet at the 'Life of Chuck' premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Karen - who posed beside co-stars Tom Hiddlestone and Chiwetel Ejiofor at the event - wore a fitted yellow mini dress with an off the shoulder cape, in order to accentuate her bump.

Karen and Nick tied the knot in May 2022 at Castle Toward near Dunoon in Argyll.

Meanwhile, Karen previously revealed she first connected with comedian Nick by sending him a DM.

She recalled: “I was so single and not meeting anyone.

"I did not get on with the American dating scene. Then he was presented as a recommended friend. I looked him up on YouTube and he was funny, so eventually I just slid into his DMs. I’ve never done that before in my life.”

And while her opening message was "the most boring thing ever", she felt the 'Saturday Night Live' writer had tried too hard with his response.

She said: “What I received back was a writer’s fully formed response. He’d got his writer friends to gather round and I could tell. Too well constructed. Trying too hard.”

But Nick persuaded Karen to meet up in real life and after dating throughout lockdown, they tied the knot in 2022.

The 'Jumanji' actress loves the "cosy old pub" vibe of their cottage in Studio City but she's struggling to find a home for her collection of replica dolls, which feature her in character as Amy Pond, Nebula and ruby Roundhouse.

She said: “I bought them all at one point from Amazon. Now, I don’t know what to do with them and it looks a bit narcissistic.”

And, she plans to move back to Scotland eventually.

She told the Times magazine: “I feel at home when I come back to the UK. I just really like seeing all the familiar faces on TV and feeling like I’m not out of the loop on the goings-on.

“This still feels like home even though so many people that I love are over there now [in the States]. But it’ll be over one day and then I’ll come back. All my best mates are still in Inverness, so I’ll get a little cottage up in the Highlands and just do that for the rest of my life.”
