But she thinks she was taller when she was pregnant with her two-and-a-half-year-old son Franklin.
It was pretty hard to keep it a secret and they dug up my maternity clothes from three years ago, so it all went away.
She added, “It’s usually up to the director or the costume department to try and hide it a bit. Obviously I’m not that big, I used to be a lot bigger when I had Franklin.
“So yeah, so good so far, we’ve managed to keep it to ourselves. I think we did something good, thank God!
