Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright shared a rare moment of intimacy on Sunday, posting a loved-up selfie on Instagram from a date night. The couple, both 39, who married in 2015, appeared visibly happy as they posed for the photograph. Keegan wore a simple white top and had her dark hair styled in loose waves, while Wright sported a grey t-shirt.
Keegan, an actress, captioned the post, "Can we go again next weekend @wrighty?" This public display of affection follows a recent social media post from Wright expressing his deep love for his wife and their 16-month-old daughter, Palma. He shared a video of their daughter walking, remarking, "They tell you nothing prepares you for loving your daughter this much... but they never met her mum," adding, "This love hurts."
The couple's outing comes shortly after Keegan discussed her professional endeavors. She recently shared her satisfaction with managing to stay dry during a busy day of meetings in London's warm weather, humorously documenting her efforts to combat sweat patches. Keegan is currently promoting the upcoming ITV police drama "The Blame," in which she stars alongside Douglas Booth. The series is set to air this autumn.
"The Blame" centers on two detectives, DI Emma Crane (played by Keegan) and DI Tom Radley (played by Booth), who investigate the murder of a teenage ice skater. The plot unfolds to reveal secrets, suspicion, and systemic corruption within a seemingly tranquil town. As Crane and Radley pursue their main suspect, an unexpected lead surfaces, uncovering a complex network of deceit, institutional cover-ups, and moral compromises that force Crane to question those closest to her.
A preview of the drama shows Crane confronting her police colleagues, realizing one of them may have been the last person to see the victim before her death. Radley warns of the potential repercussions, and the trailer depicts the detectives being ambushed after leaving the police station.
Keegan previously spoke about her return to work after giving birth to Palma, noting the supportive environment on set. "Coming back to work after having a baby is quite daunting," she stated at the ITV Showcase in April, "But the production were so supportive and I was so looked after and it was like working with family."
