She's on a strict filming schedule while she's been filming upcoming BBC crime drama Collateral.

So a day off was a welcome break for Carey Mulligan, who is thought to be pregnant with her second child thanks to her seemingly expanding midriff.

Wearing a loose-fitting black shirt, the Great Gatsby actress, 32, was seen sauntering along with a shopping bag, clutching a coffee (presumably decaf) in one hand.

Despite the looseness of the top, there was a stretch at the waist where her apparent rounded tummy seemed prominent.

The fresh-faced star - who is expecting the supposed child, which will be her second with her husband Marcus Mumford - went make-up free.

She scraped back her brunette locks and wore a pair of shades as she strolled along.

She had dressed for comfort in a pair of loose-fitting black trousers with white designs on them and a pair of sandals.

Visibly displaying the signs of a rounded tummy, the actress was dressed for the balmy weather in a Bardot-style dress for a Nobu date night with Marucs last week. 

They left the restaurant hand-in-hand after sharing a meal at one of London's premium eateries, popular among stars. 

The famously tight-lipped actress has yet to confirm she's expecting a second child, though her first pregnancy was similarly shrouded in secrecy.

Reports first emerged about a surprise pregnancy last month when super-slim Carey was suddenly spotted with a rounded stomach at hot spot Sexy Fish.

She's now returning to television work with a four-part BBC drama about a fatal shooting in London.

Carey plays the detective trying to get to the bottom of the shooting, amid an ensemble cast that includes Billie Piper, John Simm and Nicola Walker. 

It's her first small screen part since The Walker, in 2015, and follows the hugely successful film Suffragette, in which she played Maud Watts. 

Meanwhile, Marcus will be headlining Latitude Festival next month with his band after making a comeback in late 2016.
