Renée Zellweger is definitely 'mit bebe' as she reveals burgeoning faux pregnancy bump for more Bridget Jones 3 filming

She coined 'Bridget Jones knickers' for her unforgettable attempt to suck in her tummy.

But as Bridget returns 14 years on for Bridget Jones' Baby, the famous spinster couldn't have looked more proud of her burgeoning tummy on Wednesday - this time because she's 'mit bebe'.

With her chin in the air, 46-year-old actress Renée Zellweger looked proud to share her fuller figure when the crew gathered at a supermarket in London's Woolwich to continue filming.

Mother-to-be: She was sporting a rather large bump as she got into character 

And it was clear to see the differences already between Helen Fielding's third book Mad About The Boy and the new Bridget Jones' Baby film, since Renee was back in her faux bump for a second day of filming.

The film, directed Sharon Maguire, is thought to be based on Helen Fielding's old columns as opposed to her 2013 novel, in which Bridget is a mum-of-two and her partner has died. 

Bridget seems to find herself unexpectedly expecting in the latest reincarnation.

During filming, her rotund tummy peeped beneath an open fur jacket and was further emphasised by the ultimate slimming taboo, horizontal stripes.

Cozy up in a fur coat by Shrimps for winter

It may see nice out today, but don't let the sunshine fool ya! Winter is nipping at our toes and if you don't work quick you'll be up a creek, freezing cold, without a paddle (coat).

And while Renee mocks the part of a disheveled mummy (classic Bridge) with this fuzzy shearling coat by English brand, Shrimps. We can't help but rebrand the look with some stylish black skinny jeans, ankle booties for height and a crisp white blouse et voila!-- The perfect outfit for winter and fall.

We don't need to tell you that the swinging '60's are in. So this groovy coat known as 'The Henry' hit the trend mark right on the head.

For a former thirty-something hell-bent on losing weight, Bridget appeared to be embracing those extra few pounds in her pregnancy.

Bridget's distinctive heart shape necklace hung from her neck, while the actress' hair was grown out to a longer style.

Fans of the films and books will remember that we left Bridget happily married to Mark Darcy, played by Colin Firth, at the end of the second film.

Though only those who've read the third book will understand why this film deviates from the written plot after news that Colin had returned to filming was revealed by newbie Patrick Dempsey last week.

While Colin has hinted at a reappearance in the new film, Bridget's former flame Daniel Cleaver may not appear after actor Hugh Grant revealed he had 'decided not to do' the third project.

Patrick confirmed his inclusion just last week and was seen filming with Renee on Tuesday afternoon in London.

Renee reprised her role this week for a spot of filming in Greenwich Park, where she was joined by Sally Phillips; who plays her character's best friend Shazza. 

The trio were surrounded by children in a nod to the more mature side of Bridget that we're expected to see when she returns.

Author Helen Fielding penned the last book in 2013 and released Mad About The Boy in October of that year, the new film is due out in September 2016.
