MICHELLE Keegan and Mark Wright’s emotional reason for choosing Mallorca as the location of their pregnancy photoshoot has been revealed.
The actress, 37, shared that she and husband Mark were expecting their first child on Sunday evening.
In a snap showing off her baby bump for the very first time, she exposed her bare baby bump as she donned an all-white outfit.
Posing on a beach, she carefully placed her hand on the bump as she gazed lovingly at hubby Mark.
Pals said the couple took the snap during a winter break to Mallorca, which they count as a second home.
Mark and Michelle have made no secret of their love for travel, but there’s one place they keep returning to, time and time again.
They go to Mallorca, and often stay in Deià – a small coastal village on the northwest coast.
Deià is classed as one of the islands prettiest villages.
Visiting Mallorca in November, Michelle shared a carousel of images and wrote: “Just a couple of days in our fave place before the Christmas build up begins.”
The actress’ caption confirmed to fans that Mallorca is in fact hers and Mark’s favourite place to holiday.
And Mark has mentioned this to fans in the past too.
Last year, the former Towie star took a trip to Mallorca with Michelle and wrote “best place ever,” under Michelle’s post of the stunning location.
It will likely come as no surprise to fans, then, that a secluded beach in Mallorca was their chosen spot for the pregnancy shoot.
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.
“It was taken on an empty beach by a friend when they knew no one would spot them.
“Majorca is like a second home to them so it felt special for them to take that photograph there.
“The lighting and the setting was just perfect, it was a beautiful moment.”
Pals told The Sun how Fool You Once actress Michelle and Heart DJ Mark were “thrilled” about their baby news.
One said: “Michelle and Mark kept their pregnancy quiet for a long time because they wanted to enjoy every second.
“Starting a family has been something they have wanted to do for a long time.
“They are both in amazing places in their careers and their family home in Essex is all completed.
“The timing could not have been more perfect.”
