Actress Michelle Keegan has announced she is expecting her first baby with husband Mark Wright, but the happy couple told the nearest and dearest weeks ago. The former Coronation Street actress and star on Netflix ’s Fool Me Once shared a photo of her holding her bump while standing opposite Mark, who rose to fame on the reality TV show The Only Way Is Essex, on a beach.
Michelle wore a white off-the-shoulder top and skirt and Mark a beige shirt and trousers in the Instagram post shared on Sunday evening. It was captioned "2025 is going to be a special one for us" followed by a baby emoji. It's reported the cute snap was taken in Majorca at the start of November. Mark and Michelle are huge fans of the Spanish island and even own a holiday home over there. Michelle shared some snaps during the trip last month, concealing her bump as she told fans; "A couple of days in our favourite place before the Christmas build-up begins.".
According to a friend of the couple, Michelle and Mark "kept their pregnancy quiet for a long time" as they wanted to enjoy the moment for themselves at first. "Starting a family has been something they have wanted to do for a long time," a source close to the parents-to-be has said.
Speaking to The Sun, the insider added: "They are both in amazing places in their careers and their family home in Essex is all completed. The timing could not have been more perfect." They added how Mark and Michelle's "immediate family have known for a while.".
Pregnant Michelle hid her bump during an outing in Essex last week as she and husband Mark narrowly avoided a run in with his ex fiancée Lauren Goodger. Former TOWIE star Mark, 37, had a well-documented relationship with Lauren, 38, that lasted for a decade before they finally called it quits in 2012.
