Mark Wright shares glimpse inside life as a new dad as he ‘prepares for night feeds’ after birth of baby daughter Palma
MARK Wright and Michelle Keegan offered a glimpse into life as new parents after the birth of baby daughter Palma Elizabeth.
The couple welcomed their first child into the world at the beginning of the month after years of preparing for the tot’s arrival.
Michelle and Mark shared their news in an adorable Instagram post as they revealed their newborn’s name.
Brassic star Michelle and Heart radio host Mark have since been busy adjusting to life as parents.
They have been lying low in recent weeks but have shared snippets of adjusting to life as mum and dad, and their new normal on Instagram.
Last night the celebrity couple revealed they are sharing the night feeds as they enjoyed separate dinners.
Mark tucked into a tasty plate of noodles and veg, with a side plate of nachos at home, telling fans he was preparing for a late night with their little one.
The former Towie star wrote over the top: “Carbing up for the night feeds” alongside a baby and a bottle emoji.
Michelle meanwhile popped out for delicous sushi and brought their daughter with her.
She snapped photos of beautifully arranged tuna and salmon sashimi with plates of green salads.
Michelle wrote over the top: “Waited a long time for you” referring to women being advised to avoid raw fish during pregnancy.
In another snap, Michelle posted a photo of a baby bottle on the table, writing: “Used to be a lychee martinee!”
Mark fought back tears as he opened up on becoming a dad and the amazing efforts of Michelle during childbirth.
His Heart FM co-host Olly Murs initiated the conversation, saying: “I know you’re such a private person mate, and I know we have a lot of banter on the show, and we joke and stuff, but this week has been truly special for you and Michelle.
“Just tell me how you’re feeling right now.”
A touched Mark replied: “Mate, it’s actually hard to put it into words!
“I’ll start by saying it’s the biggest achievement of my life, it’s all I think about.
“But obviously hats go off to my wife – she’s just an absolute superhuman, superhero for bringing this baby into the world, and it makes you realise what our mums did for us.
“And makes me have so much more respect than I already had for what women have to go through.”
He went on: “But other than that, it’s the best feeling in the world.
“I wake up every morning just so excited to see her face – every time I wake up I go, ‘ah she’s there’ – and that moment when I held her in my arms…
“It gets me emotional now thinking about it, everything else goes out the window and it’s made me realise what life is all about.”
