They posted a photo of Michelle craddling her growing baby bump on the beach. Michelle, dressed in a chic white outfit with an off-the-shoulder jumper and matching skirt, couldn’t stop smiling as Mark walked towards her, wearing a coordinated outfit.

They captioned the post: "2025 is going to be a special one for us…". Their happy baby news comes after Michelle hit back at constant ‘sexist’ questions about when she would start a family. Earlier this year, she said: “It’s horrible. People don’t know if we’re trying. They don’t know the background of what’s happening.

“In this day and age, you shouldn’t be asking questions like that. I’m asked purely because I’m a woman. But I’m immune to it now – it’s like a reaction, and as soon as I hear it I brush it off as it’s no one else’s business.”. Mark and Michelle married at St Mary’s Church in Bury St Edmunds in 2015, followed by a lavish reception at the Tudor mansion Hengrave Hall.

Since then, the couple have been inundated with work, as Michelle’s acting career has taken her all over the world and Mark, 37, has been busy with his role as a presenter on Heart FM, as well as various fitness initiatives. Over the years the pair have fielded questions about having children – but have made no secret about wanting a large family.
