Actress Michelle Keegan and her husband Mark Wright have announced their pregnancy after years of facing pressure from fans and loved ones about starting a family. Keegan previously expressed frustration over the intrusive questions, attributing them to gender bias.
Actress Michelle Keegan has expressed her annoyance at the constant questioning about when she'll start a family, before finally announcing her pregnancy on Sunday night. Michelle and her husband Mark Wright, both 37, took to Instagram to share their joyous news with their followers. '2025 is going to be a special one for us... ,' read the caption of a post that featured a picture of Michelle tenderly cradling her baby bump on a beach, with Mark looking on.
The couple, who got hitched in 2015, have been under pressure to start a family for nearly a decade now, with the pressure coming from both fans and their loved ones. Last year, Michelle highlighted that she's the one who gets asked, attributing it to gender bias. The pair, who frequently post pictures with their nieces and nephews on social media, had inadvertently sparked speculation among fans eager for them to have their own children prior to Sunday's announcement. Michelle was reportedly livid over the intrusive questions at the time. Speaking previously to the Mirror, Michelle confessed the scrutiny got to her. '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,' reports the Mirror. Michelle and Mark received an overwhelming number of unsolicited comments about when they will start a family after posting a touching photo in April 2023, holding their prematurely born nephew, Dustin Wright. Fans couldn’t help but ask the couple when they would have kids of their own, with one particularly brazen follower urging on Instagram: 'Come on you two, pull your fingers out. It's time now.' They were reportedly quite upset by these remarks; Michelle felt 'furious' and 'incredibly angry'
