Sienna Miller has revealed that she was pregnant while filming the entirety of new divorce drama War and was 35 weeks by the end of shooting.
The actress, 44, welcomed her third child in April with her partner Oli Green, 29, and they got engaged two months later. They also welcomed a child in January 2024.
Sienna also shares a 14-year-old daughter, Marlowe, with actor Tom Sturridge, who she dated for four years until July 2015.
While she was pregnant with her third child she was filming War which she stars in opposite Dominic West. The series follows the ugly story of their divorce.
Sienna plays Carla Duval while Dominic, 56, takes on the character of her ex Morgan Henderson in the legal drama which follows two elite London law firms going head-to-head for victory.
In a new interview Sienna told how the shoot was tough due to her pregnancy and that it was long days of filming which saw her ‘leaving and coming home in the dark’.
She starred alongside Phoebe Fox in War, who was also pregnant during shooting. Her pregnancy was written into the plot however.

Sienna joked to the The Observer: ‘She got in first. We sat together scoffing Freddos in between shots.’
It comes after earlier this month Sienna said that she feels like a ‘lactating heifer’ and is struggling to dress her ‘massive boobs’ after being ‘pregnant or breastfeeding for nearly four years’.
In a candid interview, the mother-of-three joked that she was so tired that she ‘doesn’t know who she is’ any more as she juggles work and raising her brood.
She said: ‘I have completely lost my fashion sense. I’ve been pregnant or breastfeeding for nearly four years, and I think something happens to the brain – or you’re so f***ing tired – that you sacrifice your identity.
‘You’re just ‘mother’… and not in the Gen-Z way, as much as I would like to be.’
‘I’m just really questioning all this, because I’m just so underslept and I kind of don’t know who I am. I also have massive boobs, which I don’t know how to dress. Anyway, this is far too much information…’.
She also told Vogue that on the day of her interview with them she had been ‘up breastfeeding since the crack of dawn’, before adding: ‘I just feel like a kind of lactating heifer.’
Sienna also revealed that she often turns to model Alexa Chung – who is her ex Tom’s partner – for fashion advice, including what to wear for the recent Oasis: Don’t Look Back In Anger premiere.

Should actors be expected to juggle intense roles and pregnancies, or should studios adapt more?
In May, Sienna appeared on the Jimmy Fallon show in New York just three weeks after giving birth.
During her sit-down interview with the TV host she confessed that motherhood was exhausting at times.
Sienna said: ‘It feels like stringing sentences together is a bit challenging.
‘I’m on very little sleep but I’m madly in love with my baby.
‘It’s crazy to be talking words and wearing a dress. What has happened from pajama gate.’
Asked by the host which of her children are tougher to look after, she said: ‘I would have said the teenage girl would be harder to juggle until the transatlantic flight I took yesterday with the toddler and the newborn.
‘The toddler now wins hands down. It was an absolute disaster.
‘There’s no negotiating. I got to the immigration line and just broke down.’
Sienna also spoke about motherhood in a different interview with Vogue recently.
She said: ‘I’d wanted another baby for so long that my postpartum was just bliss. I had thought, by the time I was 40, that it wouldn’t happen.
‘That I’d have my one baby and I kind of made peace with it. It was such a surprise, and it was such a bonus that I was just euphoric. I felt existentially relieved.’
War will be available in the UK on October 2 on Sky and Now.
