Pregnant Michelle Keegan hides baby bump in tracksuit as she enjoys cosy Sunday at home – as husband Mark heads on a run
PREGNANT Michelle Keegan documented a cosy day in with her dog while husband Mark Wright braved the chill for a winter run.
The Manchester-born actress stayed snug in the pair’s £3.5million Essex mansion as an Amber cold health alert was issued for the freezing temperatures across the UK.
Former Coronation Street actress Michelle, 37, revealed she was expecting her first baby with TOWIE alum Mark, also 37, in December.
The Sun has since revealed the TV favourite is “weeks” from giving birth.
In a snap posted to her Instagram Stories this weekend, the Our Girl star wrapped up in a black tracksuit which covered her baby bump,
She stayed snug on the bright white sofa, propped up on a pair of pillows, as she sipped a brew.
Her chihuahua Pip perched next to her and Michelle added the caption: “Sunday,” followed by a love heart.
She left her hair in natural waves with a clip pining up the front piece, and went make-up free, to show her glowing complexion.
Meanwhile, the star has enjoyed a busy week on the Brassic set – wrapping up from the freezing cold climes in a chunky green puffa jacket.
On the other hand, fitness fanatic Mark looked eager to keep up his running routine and make the most of his me-time before the tot’s arrival.
He was joined by a pal as they headed for a run in the frost, with the former ITVBe star making sure he could be seen safely in a neon hat with a light on the front.
The star wrapped up in a long sleeve black top and puffer gilet and told fans in his video: “It’s absolutely Baltic.
“It’s just ice, minus five degrees.”
He then captured the members of his run club looking cheery as they got their wellness fix.
BABY JOY
Michelle and Mark announced their happy baby news after nine years of marriage with a stunning photoshoot in Mallorca.
In a snap showing off her baby bump for the very first time, she exposed her tummy as she donned an all-white outfit.

A pal added to The Sun: “Michelle and Mark went on a winter sun break in early November and chose to take the photograph there.
