Michelle Keegan opens up about her nine-year marriage to Mark Wright, describing it as “a bit more boring” as she reflects on the changes over the years. The actress, known for her role in Corrie, tied the knot with the former TOWIE star in May 2015 at Hengrave Hall in Suffolk. Despite their celebrity status and frequent red-carpet appearances, the couple has successfully safeguarded their privacy.
In a recent interview with Closer Magazine, Michelle provided fans with a glimpse into her relationship with Mark nearly a decade after they said “I do.” “I’ve grown to appreciate cozy nights on the sofa with our dogs, just watching TV and unwinding,” she shared. However, she quickly noted, “We still enjoy dressing up and dining out.”
Looking back, Michelle reminisced about the couple’s more adventurous outings. “In the past, we would stay out for dinner and drinks until the early hours,” she said. But those nights seem to be behind them now. “These days, I’ll check the time and realize it’s 9:30 p.m. and think, ‘We should head home for bed! It’s a bit more dull now!’” she added.
The couple’s preference for quieter evenings makes sense given their luxurious lifestyle. They live in an impressive £3.5 million mansion in Essex, which boasts five bedrooms, a cutting-edge gym, a sauna, an outdoor pool, and a cinema room. In a discussion with The Guardian, Michelle expressed her emotional connection to the home. “It brings tears to my eyes because we have truly worked hard for it. We had to make significant sacrifices,” she reflected. “I missed many significant moments in life due to work obligations. Mark spent time in LA and we were apart for months, which was challenging. But every sacrifice has been worthwhile.”
