The Netflix star, 37, sent her fans into a frenzy on Sunday when announced she and husband, Mark Wright, also 37, were looking forward to becoming parents in a post on Instagram, in which the mum-to-be shows off her blossoming baby bump on a beach.
Michelle has had a busy year career-wise, starring in Netflix's Fool Me Once as well as filming BBC series Ten Pound Poms. The hit show, set in Australia will return to screens next year and fans can't wait to see Michelle reprise her role as nurse, Kate Thorne.
The actress shared a snap from the set Down Under earlier this year in which she holds a clapperboard from the series, sporting 1950s curls peaking out from a polka dot headband, a striped top and high-waisted slacks. Written and created by BAFTA award-winning Danny Brocklehurst, the first successful series followed a group of Brits who migrated to Australia after WW2 in 1957 in the promise of a better life in Australia.
Michelle has worked hard to carve out a successful TV careerafter shooting to fame as Tina McIntytre and was even at one point tipped to be in the running to be the next Bond Girl. However, the actress from Stockport has long been surrounded with questions of why she hasn't yet children. Michelle spoke to the Mirror about her sadness over the intrusion, admitting people didn't know what was going on behind closed doors.
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," she stated. "I'm asked purely because I'm a woman. 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.".
