[edit] Career

Moffett attended St Edward's School in Oxford[3] and made her debut on television at the age of 15 in 1999 in Peak Practice, playing Nicki Davey.[4] Moffett has also appeared in television dramas such as The Second Quest and Like Father Like Son. She played downtrodden Alice Harding in the ITV1 drama Where the Heart Is in 2004 and 2005[5] and has performed alongside her father, Peter Davison, in Fear, Stress & Anger[6] and The Last Detective[7].

In 2007 she made her theatrical debut as Mathilde Verlaine in Total Eclipse[disambiguation needed ] at London's Menier Chocolate Factory.[8]

In May 2008, Moffett starred as the Doctor's cloned daughter, Jenny, in the Doctor Who episode "The Doctor's Daughter".[9] Moffett's father, Peter Davison, is known for portraying the fifth incarnation of the titular character, the Doctor. In August 2008, Moffett starred in series one of BBC Three's spy spin-off Spooks: Code 9 as Kylie Roman.[10][11]

In 2009 she voiced the role of Cassie Rice in the BBC's Animated Adventure Doctor Who: Dreamland starring David Tennant,[12] and also portrayed Lady Vivian in the "Sweet Dreams" episode of the BBC drama Merlin.[13]

In June 2010 she performed in the short play Hens, which ran for four performances at the Riverside Studios and was later broadcast on Sky Arts 2,[14] and also played a cameo role in the TV drama Thorne: Sleepyhead as the wife of one of the junior detectives (appearing in one scene in episode two, and one non-speaking scene in episode three).

[edit] Personal life

Moffett became pregnant at 16, and gave birth to a son, Tyler, on 27 March 2002.[15] Moffett and her son have appeared together on the British reality series Four Weddings[16] and on an episode of Doctor Who Confidential, and he also interviewed her for a video for the BBC website.[17] Tyler Moffett attends a drama school in London owned by his grandmother, Sandra Dickinson, and made his acting debut in May 2010, in a TV commercial for The Great British Teddy Bear Company.

In January 2011, several newspapers in Britain reported that Moffett was engaged to actor David Tennant. Moffett gave birth to the couple's daughter two months later, in March 2011.[18][19] Moffett and Tennant married on 30 December 2011.[20] Neither Tennant nor Moffett have ever spoken about or acknowledged their relationship publicly, and they avoid being photographed together.
