#SHOWBIZ: Actress Siti Saleha takes a break to focus on pregnancy, family
KUALA LUMPUR: Popular actress Siti Saleha has announced she is taking a break from acting to focus on her family and her pregnancy. Now four months along, the actress will begin her hiatus after she finishes filming the drama series 'Bad Cop', directed by Jason Chong. "Filming can be exhausting. I want to take it easy until I give birth, and I'll return once I feel healthy and fit again. But it won't be for years," said the 35-year-old artiste during a press conference after winning the Selebriti Ikon Terhangat award at Anugerah Melodi Terhangat 2025 held at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre last night. Siti Saleha also revealed that her first trimester went smoothly, with no morning sickness or cravings, though she did admit to feeling more lethargic than usual, which is a common experience for many pregnant women. The actress expressed her gratitude for the continuous support of her fans throughout her 15-year career. "This is a blessing for me, the baby, and my loyal fan club. I'm truly grateful," she said of her award win. Saleha recently announced her pregnancy in a video posted on Instagram, which was recorded during a holiday in Bali with her husband, Joshua Fitton. The couple married in a private ceremony in Janda Baik, Pahang, in February.
