Charlene McKenna reveals she became a mother for the first time

Congratulations are in order for Charlene McKenna.

The Peaky Blinders actor has revealed that she welcomed her first child earlier this year.

Yes, the Monaghan woman revealed that she kept her entire pregnancy underwraps.

In fact, she welcomed her little one three months ago.

She gave birth to her daughter, Martha Josephine in March.

She revealed the news to RTÉ presenter Kay Sheehy on RTÉ Radio One when the presenter hinted that Charlene had been working on “a beautiful production” of her own.

“I think it’s an incredibly special and poignant and beautiful production, if I do say so myself,” she explained.

“I had a little baby, so I’ve been kind of out of the loop for a long time now. I’ve just been in nesting mode and enjoying my little girl. She’s just, she’s very special.”

Charlene and her long-term partner Adam Rothenberg married in Castle Leslie with just a handful of guests in January 2021.

Over a year later Charlene and Adam returned to the beautiful spot in her native Monaghan with their loved ones in 2022.

The pictures she shared showcased just how many people the couple wanted to have with them as they tied the knot.

The actress had six flower girls alone, all dressed in beautiful white lace-embellished dresses for her big day.

Charlene opted for a slinky white floor length gown designed by Simone Rocha to mark her wedding day “part deux” with a halter neck style and subtle lace detailing around the hem.

Congrats to the proud parents.
