MARK’S JEALOUSY over Michelle’s new man
As they’re pictured getting cosy on set
Everything seemed to be back to fairy-tale perfect for Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan recently after heat revealed they had come to a compromise and would spend just one more year working apart before settling in the UK. However, a source close to the couple has told us that Michelle’s latest role has Mark feeling a little jealous – and judging by these pictures, we can understand why. “Michelle is in her element with her new show, getting out of the army clothes she wore for Our Girl and playing a glamorous part again,” our insider says. “She’s been on cloud nine and finally feels as though the dynamic between her and Mark is changing . But Mark has told his friends that he’s less than pleased to see her in a short skirt and seemingly flirting with another man on set.”
Michelle, 31, has taken on a role in a new comedy drama, Brassic, which sees her acting alongside dishy star Damien Maloney. And it seems Mark isn’t just jealous of the new man in her life. “Suddenly, Mark’s been really keen to talk about him and Michelle having lots of babies together,” we’re told. “It’s as if he’s getting a bit jealous and now he’s the one envying her career. But Michelle isn’t thinking about babies right now – she’s enjoying her new job too much. She’s got other exciting roles coming up, too, and feels as though she’s really got her groove back.”
Mark has reportedly signed on for one more year of co-hosting on entertainment news show
Extra in the US, but has been visiting Michelle more regularly in the UK. The presenter also did a stint on alongside Mollie King on This Morning recently and is hoping for more. The source adds, “Of course, Michelle’s happy
Mark is going to be spending more time in the UK with her now, but if there is any jealousy or competition between them in their careers, she is not paying any attention to it. Her mates are happy she seems to be putting herself first again and isn’t trying to bend over backwards for Mark by travelling halfway across the world just to see her husband. It feels as though Michelle has got her old spark back.”
