The British star looked focused as the pair faced one another across a small table outside a local cafe during what appeared to be a heated exchange. 

In accordance with current health and safety guidelines, Felicity wore a protective face covering as she mingled with crew members while relaxing between scenes.

Evidently keen to document her latest film project, the actress was seen taking pictures of the surrounding area on her iPhone as she waited for the cameras to roll.

Over the past several months, the British actress hadn’t been seen out and about, likely because of the global COVID-19 pandemic.

However, Felicity and Charles are known to be a fiercely private couple, who rarely publicly share details about their home life.

Felicity first confirmed her pregnancy news after debuting her baby bump at The Aeronauts premiere in New York City in December, 17 months after tying the knot with director Charles Guard.

A representative first confirmed that she was expecting to The Hollywood Reporter, after she debuted her bump at The Aeronauts premiere.

The actress dated Charles for two years before he proposed in May 2017, and they tied the knot in July 2018 at the picturesque Sudeley Castle in the Cotswolds, Oxfordshire.
