Pregnant Michelle Keegan ‘taking step back’ from spotlight
Since shooting to fame on Coronation Street in 2008, Michelle has become one of the UK’s beloved and popular actors.
From stints on BBC’s Our Girl to the record-breaking Netflix smash, Fool Me Once, Michelle’s remained booked and busy.
But it appears she is planning to slow things down this year.
The news of Michelle’s pregnancy was announced in January via a sweet snap on a beach where Michelle exposed her growing baby bump. She and Mark penned in the caption: “2025 is going to be a special one for us…”
Now, for the first time Michelle has opened up about her pregnancy.
Pregnant Michelle Keegan wants to ‘enjoy being a mum’
However, fans hoping to see more of Michelle on TV screens will be disappointed.
“I’m going to take a good chunk of time off to enjoy being a mum,” Michelle revealed in a recent interview with Grazia.
“I’m never normally at home in the summer, I’ve always been away working, so I can’t wait,” she added.
Michelle also shut down rumours that she is having a baby boy, insisting that she and Mark do not know the sex yet.
Michelle on hiding baby bump
Before she gives birth, Michelle will wrap up filming the seventh series of Sky comedy Brassic.
But her baby bump won’t make it on the TV screen as according to Michelle, she’s hiding it with “lots of big jumpers and coats!”
And as expected, the actrees is having some serious cravings amid her pregnancy. Her choice? She said is “sugary stuff”.
Michelle on ‘new priorities’
What’s more, with Michelle and Mark celebrating their 10th wedding anniversary in May, Michelle shared what they have planned. She said: “We talked about it last year, but obviously things have changed now. We’ve got new priorities.”
Michelle also opened up about how she plans to be when she becomes a parent. Talking to the publication, she revealed how her parents broke up when she was nine but “it didn’t affect” Michelle or her siblings as they “felt so loved”.
“They are great parents who gave us a great childhood. As long as a child feels loved and safe, you can’t go far wrong,” she said.
