The wait is over—Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright are now proud parents! The couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Palma Elizabeth Wright, and couldn’t resist sharing the heartwarming news with fans.
Michelle, 37, posted a tender black-and-white photo on Instagram, capturing the trio’s first moments together. “Our little girl has arrived,” she wrote, revealing their daughter’s birth date: March 6, 2025.

The pair, who married in 2015 after meeting years earlier, announced their pregnancy in December with a playful baby bump reveal. Fans had been eagerly awaiting updates ever since, and the outpouring of love was immediate. Former Coronation Street colleagues, including Alan Halsall, sent warm wishes, while the show’s official account added, “Congratulations from all of us at Corrie!”
Michelle has long been vocal about the pressures of public scrutiny, especially regarding motherhood. In past interviews, she dismissed nosy questions, stressing that family plans are private. Now, with Palma in their arms, the couple is focused on the joys of parenting—and their fans couldn’t be happier for them.
