Ugly Betty star Ashley Jensen is expecting her first child - just months after her character on the hit show gave birth.

The Scottish actress, who shot to fame in Ricky Gervais' Extras, is due to deliver her first tot with husband Terence Beesley in the autumn.

Jensen, who quit her role as Christina in Ugly Betty earlier this year, is "excited" about the pregnancy, according to People.com.

The star is set to move to another TV show - she has taken a part as Jenna Elfman's best pal in new sitcom Accidentally on Purpose.
