Happy birthday, Michelle Keegan! The Manchester-born star turned 39, and to mark the occasion, her husband of 11 years, Mark Wright, shared a touching message for the Netflix star.
The 39-year-old former TOWIE contestant posted a series of photos with his beautiful wife on his Instagram account, some of which date back to the early days of their relationship. One of the photos that caught our attention was a picture of Michelle holding their baby daughter, Palma, who was born last year.
Michelle held her little girl in her arms and looked out to sea.
Mark captioned the photos: "Today is your day, baby. A year away from turning 40, but you look no older than 21. You're too humble to realize how special you are, but what you do for us and everyone around you means more than you'll ever understand. Love you, dear M&P.".
In the aforementioned photo, Michelle and Palma were dressed in white and looking out to sea, apparently standing on the balcony of a cruise ship. Michelle had her back to the camera, her signature chestnut hair fluttering in the sea breeze.
Mark shared a series of photos capturing their loving years together.
The comments section was filled with messages from the star's friends and family, who couldn't resist wishing the "Fool Me Once" singer a happy birthday.
