Cressida Bonas stopped by a children’s charity clothing store in London this morning after the model confirmed she was pregnant again.
Prince Harry’s ex-girlfriend was spotted on Saturday for the first time since announcing she was pregnant with her second child, after Cressida, 35, headed to Notting Hill-based Fara Kids for a shopping spree.
She was accompanied by her two-year-old son Wilbur, and Cressida pushed her stroller while sipping a hot drink in a takeaway cup as she walked through the west London neighborhood.
Dressed for a cold morning in London, Cressida wore a thick black coat over a cream turtleneck and charcoal gray jeans.
Looking fresh and radiant, Cressida opted for a no-makeup look as she accessorized with a pair of slate blue fingerless gloves and a beanie over her blonde locks.
Her visit to the charity shop comes days after Cressida confirmed that she and husband Harry Wentworth-Stanley are expecting their second child together.
writing in The spectatorCressida shared that she used a frozen embryo after having “conceived through IVF the first time” and noted that her second pregnancy was different from her first.
The actress, 35, who married the real estate investor in 2020, wrote: ‘It is incredible that a small group of frozen cells, which are already a life, can survive, suspended in time for years.
Cressida Bomas, 35, was seen visiting the Fara Children store, a children’s charity clothing store in the Notting Hill neighborhood of west London, on Saturday.
She was accompanied by her two-year-old son Wilbur, whom Cressida shares with her property investor husband, Harry Wentworth-Stanley.
Cressida also revealed that this has been a more difficult pregnancy, noting: “I’ve been struggling with morning sickness.
“I’ve never had it before and now I feel like I’ve been rocking on a boat for months.”
As their family grows, Cressida continued, she and Harry are now looking for a larger home.
“Our apartment is for sale and we are looking for a house,” he explained, adding that the couple’s dachshund, Budgie, “will probably not be impressed” by the move.
“Not only are we uprooting her territory, but there’s a new family member on the way and she can feel it.”
In 2022, Cressida described how she felt as if “my body was failing me” after facing difficulties conceiving, and when a specialist told the couple that “there was nothing fundamentally wrong.”
writing in Sunday weathersaid: ‘I spent time and money on reflexology, nutritionists, acupuncture and psychics… Even a German healer who talks to angels. I didn’t hear anything, not a squeal.
“My mind was in a loop of constant worry and my obsession with getting pregnant became overwhelming. No matter how many Mystic Megs I saw or expensive supplements I took, nothing worked and I felt like my body was failing me.”
Dressed for a cold morning in London, Cressida wore a thick black coat over a cream turtleneck and charcoal gray jeans.
Cressida admitted to having “avoided” her loved ones’ children’s parties because she felt out of place with her friends who had children, amid the struggle to have her own.
She went on to say that IVF in the first place “scared” her because she had “no power” over the end result.
Unfortunately, Cressida’s struggle to get pregnant is far from the only challenge she has faced in recent years.
On July 22, 2024, the actress’s half-sister, Pandora Cooper-Key, died at the age of 51 due to cancer.
The mother of two was first diagnosed with the disease 24 years ago and had spent the last two decades battling different types of cancer.
Ten days after Pandora’s death, her family announced that she had died following the discovery of an inoperable brain tumor.
Cressida played a key role in a memorial service for Pandora that took place on Friday 19 September 2024, paying a moving tribute to her “beloved sister”.
“My heart will forever be linked to yours,” said the actress about her ceramist sister.

Cressida was joined at St Luke’s Church in Chelsea, west London, by Pandora’s friends, including Queen Camilla’s son Tom Parker Bowles and her nephew Sir Ben Elliot.
Dressed in a pastel-colored pantsuit, Cressida read a moving “letter to Pandora” she composed after his death.
The sisters’ mother, Lady Mary-Gaye Curzon, paid tribute, saying: “No one on Earth who met Pandora could help but fall in love with her.”
In an interview with MailOnline just months before her untimely death, Pandora said her family had already planned her funeral “thousands of times”.
At the end of 2023 he was told he had an inoperable brain tumor.
The artist endured repeated rounds of immunotherapy in hopes of recovery, but was told this was not an option after her latest news.
A notice in The Times, announcing her death, called her “beloved daughter,” “adored mother,” “much-loved sister” and “devoted aunt.”
Sarcoma UK, a charity she supported, said on a fundraising page: “She was a beautiful spirit and an inspiration to many.”

Kerry Reeves-Kneip, communications director at Sarcoma UK, added: “His candor about his journey has helped raise crucial awareness about sarcoma and the challenges patients face.
‘Pandora’s legacy extends far beyond its fundraising efforts; She touched countless lives with her warmth and resilience.
‘On behalf of everyone at Sarcoma UK, I extend our deepest condolences to Pandora’s family, including her mother, Lady Mary, her sister, Cressida Bonas, her two children and everyone who loved her.
‘We are immensely grateful for the difference Pandora made to our organization and to others affected by sarcoma.
‘We at Sarcoma UK will honor her by continuing our mission with renewed determination. Pandora’s kindness, courage and indomitable spirit will forever remain in our hearts.”
Pandora continued to work for Vivienne Westwood as a handbag designer for a decade after her diagnosis, before leaving to have her first child.
Just five weeks after giving birth, she was given the devastating news that she had sarcoma in her left eye and sinus area.
Sarcomas are malignant tumors that are so rare that a GP can expect to see only one or two in their entire career.
Approximately 4,630 soft tissue sarcomas and 670 bone sarcomas are diagnosed in the UK each year.
She was given just ten months to live because doctors feared her condition had worsened after she had surgery to remove the affected tear duct. It was later discovered that her scans had been misinterpreted and she was cleared of suspicion.
But this was soon followed by the terrible news that Pandora had another tumor on her cheek, which was successfully removed, and also one on the back of her nose.
In 2016, she went through a period in which she had several seizures, which sometimes caused her to lose consciousness for a week.
But even as she battled the disease, just two years ago Pandora started a ceramics business, Curzon Blue, after falling in love with glassware at Portobello Market.
The name has a heartfelt meaning behind it, along with a touching nod to his mother.
“It’s called Curzon Blue because my mother’s maiden name is Curzon and her fourth husband made a cocktail called Curzon blue,” she said at the time.
‘It’s truly delicious and will blow your mind in no time. It seemed like a really nice thing to incorporate both of my incredible backgrounds.”
Throughout her battle with various tumors, and despite feeling weak, Pandora continued working on her business and shared her love of glassware on both her website and Instagram.
Until the end of his life, he continued to travel to markets in search of glass for his business, stating that this brought him a sense of relief in his health battle.
Pandora is survived by her two children, whom she had with television producer Matthew Mervyn-Jones before they separated.
