Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright’s newborn baby Palma Elizabeth melts hearts in new photo on Mother’s Day
MICHELLE Keegan and Mark Wright’s newborn daughter Palma Elizabeth melted hearts in a rare photo on Mother’s Day.
The newborn is pictured with her proud grandparents, Mark’s mum Carol and dad Mark Wright Sr, in the heartwarming photo.
The adorable snap, taken at a family meal, shows baby Palma dressed in a cosy white outfit with her name embroidered on the back.
Her Grandad Mark Wright Sr. cradled her as beside him, Carol beamed with joy, leaning in close for the precious moment.
The special family gathering was a beautiful way to celebrate Michelle’s first Mother’s Day since welcoming Palma, and fans couldn’t get enough of the heartwarming image.
Carol captioned the photo: “What a day with all my love in the world. Xx.”
Since her arrival, Michelle and Mark have kept their little one largely out of the spotlight.
But the rare glimpse delighted followers, who filled the comments with love for the new addition to the Wright family.
One of her followers penned: “Love this” as another said: “Blessed”.
The Brassic actress has been lying low in recent weeks following the birth of the couple’s first child, with brief updates coming in the form of a pram snap at dinner and Mark making homemade lasagne.
The fan-favourite couple have also been seen out and about, accompanied by Michelle’s mum, Jackie Anne Thornton, who became a grandma for the first time when Palma was born.
Michelle was glowing as she pushed a light brown pram and doted on her newborn.
Last week the celebrity couple revealed they are sharing Palma’s night feeds as they enjoyed separate dinners.
Mark tucked into 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 alongside 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!”
BABY DREAM
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.”
