Actress Jessie Cave admitted it would be ‘great’ if her daughter got pregnant in her teens after revealing how she and her husband started their family.
The 38-year-old, who is best known for portraying Lavender Brown in the Warner Bros. Harry Potter film franchise, is a mother of four, a stand-up comedian, and a writer.
More recently, Cave added OnlyFans creator to her resume, where she markets herself as a ‘Long Hair Specialist’ who provides ‘niche hair content’ to her subscribers.
As well as appearing in2022’s Miss Scarlet and the Duke and an episode of Black Mirror, the celebrity fronts various podcasts, and recently appeared on the Have A Word show.

Self-described as the ‘funniest podcast in the game’, the YouTube programme, starring comedians Dan Nightingale and Adam Rowe, saw Cave admitting it was a ‘goal’ for her and her husband, Alife Brown, 37, to become grandparents.
Cave, who shares Donnie, 11, Margot, nine, Tennesse, five, and Becker, three, with Brown, said: “I have a problem with hoarding baby clothes. I don’t ever have to get rid of them now because I can just keep giving them to my children.
“This is really bad but I would love it if my daughter got pregnant at 15... 16. 16, sorry, 16. I would love it. I just think that would be great.”
Admitting that she ‘sounded mental’, The Thing with Feathers actor said that she would be ‘able to look after’ her child’s offspring while the child would embark on a career.

“Then she can have her second when she’s 18… it’ll be great.”
Cave concluded her controversial statement by alleging that she didn’t know whether future generations would be afforded the luxury of having a child in their 40s, and that parents may ‘encourage’ their kids to start a family in their teens.
“The world is dying,” she claimed. “I don’t know anything to be honest, I’m just guessing. I think people like to believe that women can just keep having babies forever.
“Now ‘40 is the new 30’ - that’s b******t.”

Fans have come out in their droves to praise Cave’s guest spot on the Have A Word podcast, with one YouTube user typing: “She's mad as a box of frogs, and absolutely delightful, all wrapped in a cute little face. Great guest.”
A second commented: “Jessie was an amazing guest - use never let us down - Cheers lads.”
“So weird hearing Ron Weasley’s girlfriend talking so adult,” remarked someone else.
Cave’s dreams about becoming a grandmother came after she detailed how she and Brown - whom she worked alongside at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2012 - started their family.
She said the pair ended up in bed together after a date, but went their separate ways until she realised she was pregnant with his child.
"I didn't tell him I was pregnant until I was four months pregnant,” the Sunset writer said.
Cave explained that she broke the news to Brown via text message, sending him the ultrasound with very little context due to poor signal, and that he eventually went on to become a doting father.
