The couple kissed one another as they pushed a singular pram out in London just over a month after the birth.
Jessica, 35, looked beautiful wearing a tweed coat and a red beret as she pushed her Bugaboo, stopping to kiss Ziggy after picking up coffees together.

Jessica confirmed her pregnancy during a red carpet appearance at the Venice International Film Festival’s closing ceremony in September.
The actress previously revealed she had undergone four rounds of IVF treatment in the hope of having a child, and spoke candidly about her fertility struggles in a post earlier this year celebrating International Women’s Day, along with a video of her injecting hormones.
In the post, she injects the hormones into her stomach, which typically increases the number of eggs produced by the ovaries.

The star posted a caption reminding her followers that ‘their bodies are not the enemy’, adding: ‘Happy International Women’s day! We do hard things and then go dancing.
‘IVF has made me even more aware of just how much women are capable of and what we can achieve whilst going through pain and heart break.
‘Your body is not the enemy. Love it. No matter what. Sending love and support to every woman I have ever met and all the ones I haven’t but know what this is.’
Jessica married Heath in a low-key wedding in 2020 with just 30 guests in attendance due to Covid restrictions, three years after meeting on the Hulu drama Harlots.
Last week she revealed that she was struggling to find work after becoming pregnant.
Her acting career took off when she starred as rebellious aristocrat Lady Sybil Crawley in Downton Abbey.
She said: ‘I hoped to work more this side of having babies, but you can’t. It is very hard to insure pregnant women on set – and since Covid it’s become even harder because you are considered even higher risk.’

Miss Brown Findlay said even her voice-over work has dried up. She told The Sunday Times Culture magazine: ‘It’s shocking.’
She also spoke of the ‘crushing depth of shame’ she felt when private nude pictures of her emerged online in a 2014 iCloud leak.
The actress said the incident would have been treated differently if it had happened after the #MeToo movement in 2017.
She added: ‘Women wouldn’t have lost job opportunities and been traded on the dark web for a month before being leaked to the public because bodies are commodities.’

Jessica is currently starring alongside Anthony Welsh in the Paramount+ romantic comedy series The Flatshare, adapted from Beth O’Leary’s global bestseller.
The series follows Leon (Welsh) and Jessica (Findlay) as they share a one-bed flat but without having met each other due to their opposing work schedules.
But, as Post-it notes between them start to fly and each gets unexpectedly drawn into the other’s messy life, an attraction evolves.
