Suki Waterhouse‘s sister, Imogen Waterhouse, plays a new mum in Season 2 of period drama The Buccaneers.

Suki and partner Robert Pattinson welcomed a daughter in March 2024, between Imogen filming the first and second seasons of the AppleTV+ show.

“I think just being around babies in general, like being an aunt, a godmother … you see your friends go through it, and you’re like, ‘OK, this is a living creature that you now have to keep safe, and that’s your job’,” she tells 9honey Celebrity.

“I think having babies around definitely helps you kind of realise the gravity of it.”

Season 2 of the show, about young American women marrying into the British aristocracy, kicks off with Waterhouse’s character Jinny St. George escaping her abusive husband Lord Seadown, played by Barney Fishwick.

Jinny runs off to Italy where she welcomes their newborn son but Waterhouse reveals they filmed elsewhere for the sequence.

“It’s meant to be Italy, but we shot in Croatia, which was insane,” she tells 9honey Celebrity.

“They have all these beautiful cobbled streets that really does mimic Italy in its own way. It was the best thing ever. You get to finish the day’s work and go for a swim.”

Fishwick, who also filmed some scenes in Croatia, joked about having the lighter load out of the two of them.

“I had a lot of days off, my backstroke really improved,” he laughed.

While Lord Seadown’s character has had people tweeting about wanting to “punch this guy in the face”, Fishwick says thankfully no-one’s acted on it in his interactions with fans.

“I guess [it comes with the job] he’s a bad person, but everyone’s normally very nice when I meet them,” he tells 9honey Celebrity, adding not being in costume helps.

“I think when I don’t have the mutton chops on, it’s a totally different ballgame.”

While the show’s success has propelled the whole cast, which includes Australian actress Aubri Ibrag, to new levels of fame, Waterhouse says she hasn’t needed to lean on her famous sister for advice.

“I don’t really feel like I am [famous], so it’s not something that comes up in conversation,” she tells 9honey Celebrity.

The Buccaneers season two is on AppleTV+ now, with new episodes released weekly.

Nine Entertainment Co (the publisher of this website) owns and operates the streaming service Stan.
