Inside Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan’s Mallorca holiday – as they’re joined by Olly Murs on getaway
MICHELLE Keegan and Mark Wright recently enjoyed a romantic trip to Majorca, where they also met up with their friend Olly Murs for a fun catch-up.
This comes after the actress admitted they are in the “boring phase of their relationship.”
The former Coronation Street actress, 37, and the reality star, also 37, have been together for more than a decade.
And they have spent the past few days in Majorca, exploring the island and enjoying its culture.
The couple spent time exploring the island, sampling local coffee shops, and enjoying the beautiful scenery.
On Monday, Michelle shared an Instagram photo album from their holiday in Majorca.
The post also highlighted Majorca’s scenic beauty, featuring snapshots of the coastline and lush green spaces.
Michelle captioned her post: “Just a couple of days in our fave place before the Christmas build up begins.”
Meanwhile, Mark posted videos of himself and Olly soaking up the sun, including a playful clip of Olly singing poolside karaoke.
Mark shared a clip of Olly enthusiastically singing “Return of the Mack”.
They also engaged in friendly competitions, such as bodyboarding and go-karting.
This holiday follows Michelle’s recent admission that she and Mark have entered a “boring phase,” preferring cosy nights at home with their dogs over going out late.
Despite this, she added that they still enjoy dressing up for occasional dinners out.
The actress has said: “In the old days we’d go out for dinner and drinks until the early hours. But now after dinner, I’ll look at my watch and say, “Its 9.30pm, we’d better get back home for bedtime” It’s a bit more boring now.”
The couple married at St Mary’s Church in Bury St Edmunds in 2015, followed by a lavish reception at the Tudor mansion Hengrave Hall.
Since then, the couple have been inundated with work, as Michelle’s acting career has taken her all over the world and Mark, 37, has been busy with his role as a presenter on Heart FM, as well as various fitness initiatives.

- Clean It, Fix It (2024 – present): Mark has joined the popular BBC daytime show from its fourth series onwards.
So with their busy schedules, it’s little wonder that the pair enjoy nights in together during their free time, not least because they designed and built their dream home.
Beginning in 2021, the new build features five bedrooms, a state-of-the-art gym, a cinema room and an outdoor pool and a sauna.
Last August the couple threw a housewarming party to celebrate the completion of the project.
Speaking about dream mansion, Michelle admits to feeling emotional having realised a hard-won dream.
She told The Guardian: “It still gets me emotional. Because we’ve worked really hard for it. We’ve had to make a lot of sacrifices.
“I missed lots of milestones in my life due to work. Mark went to LA and we spent months apart, which was hard. But, it’s worth it.”
Michelle went on to say that the house was also “about security” as “you never know when all this is going to end”.
The couple first met behind-the-scenes on The X Factor before subsequently bumping into each other at numerous other events after.
A year later, the former TOWIE star asked Michelle out on a date which led to things becoming official in 2012.
Mark popped the question to Michelle the following year during a romantic holiday in Dubai and they went on to marry in 2015.
