The Dawson’s Creek actor and the Queen And Slim actress welcomed a daughter in April after tying the knot last year.
The couple have not shared details about their child but Turner-Smith has revealed she gave birth at home following a four-day labour.
She told British Vogue: “We had already decided on a home birth, because of concerns about negative birth outcomes for black women in America – according to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, the risk of pregnancy-related deaths is more than three times greater for black women than for white women, pointing, it seems to me, to systemic racism.
Jodie Turner-Smith has been spotted as Anne Boleyn for the first time while filming a Channel 5 drama that its producers say seeks to challenge conventions and shine a feminist light on her story.
Turner-Smith, a black actress born in Britain, is portraying Anne who was the second wife of English King Henry VIII, whom he famously had beheaded in 1536.
Boleyn, who was the white daughter of English nobility, is also one of the key causes of the English Reformation and the mother of Queen Elizabeth I.
She was executed by Henry for high treason after failing to produce a male heir.
