The frugal starlet made sure to keep costs down by having just 11 guests at the wedding itself, and 50 at the reception.

Keira and James welcomed their first child, daughter Edie, now seven, in 2015.

They confirmed that they had welcomed their second child Delilah in September 2019 when they were seen pushing the baby in a pram on a walk in London.

Keira’s appearance comes after she was moved to tears as she heard the wartime love story of her sonar operator grandfather and volunteer grandmother while filming Channel 4’s My Grandparents’ War.

In September, the actress was saddened when she heard her great uncle Andrew, an RAF bombardier, was shot down while flying over Germany and was held as a prisoner of war for 18 months during World War II.

Screen star Keira revealed in the documentary that her grandmother Jan never spoke of her difficult wartime experiences, including the time in 1943 when Jan and the rest of her family believed Jan’s younger brother Andrew Williams was dead after he was reported missing in action.

They feared he’d been shot down over the city of Essen in western Germany during a bombing raid. 

While the pilot had in fact perished, the rest of the crew ejected but were held in a prison camp for 18 months.

Keira’s grandfather Joseph ‘Mac’ MacDonald served in the Royal Navy for  12 years from 1934.
