Emily Atack has admitted she felt "so self conscious" as she showed off her baby bump on a red carpet.

The Inbetweeners actress made a surprise pregnancy announcement in December after keeping her exciting news under wraps for months. It is believed she is around six months pregnant and made a rare public appearance on Wednesday night to show off her growing bump.

The comedian and actress looked gorgeous as she posed in a black floor-length gown at a party ahead of the BAFTA Film Awards. Emily cradled her bump as she posed for the pictures and wore her blonde locks down in beachy waves for the event at the Four Seasons Hotel in London.

However, Emily took to her social media hours after the event to made a sad confession. Sharing a photo of herself and Skins actress Kaya Scodelario on the red carpet, Emily wrote: "My first outing in months. I was feeling SO self conscious and didn't know how to pose on the carpet with my new bump, so the dreamy woman that is @kayascods jumped in and showed me the way.

"Women supporting women [red love heart emojis]." Emily confirmed her secret pregnancy in December as she posted a photo of her growing bump on Instagram. Alongside the photo, the actress penned: "Hello everyone, it's been a little while but I'm back with some news. I'm delighted to share with you all that we're having a baby! I've never been so happy and utterly terrified at the same time.

"Please go easy on me. Every day is mixed with thrill, fear, joy, hysteria, topped off with a lot of vomiting - a bit like when you've just stepped off of the Oblivion at Alton Towers on a hangover." She added: "I've got to know my body on such an insane level. It's made me appreciate the one I've been given SO much, I'm doing my absolute best to make it a home for the little squid I'm growing.

"We can already sense the baby is reclined on a mattress of peanut butter and jam sandwiches in there, demanding more chocolate buttons. I'm so happy to be writing all of this to you all. You've always stuck by me through the years, do stick around to watch me enter my mum era. Christ. Let's go."

Emily is expecting her baby with her nuclear scientist partner Alistair Garner. The pair have known one another since they were children but their relationship in recent years blossomed into a romance. Emily recently shared she was struggling with sickness during her pregnancy as she told her fans: "Overwhelmed by all the messages of support, thank you. I'm stuck at home and very sick. So your kind messages really do cheer me up. So do M&S ginger biscuits, turns out."
