Michelle Keegan has shared a heartwarming photograph of herself and her baby daughter, Palma, rocking matching pyjamas. The 38-year-old Brassic actress posted a gorgeous image on Instagram, showing her cradling her eight-month-old baby girl in identical sleepwear.
In the photo, Michelle is perched on the edge of the pristine white sofa in the Essex home she shares with husband Mark Wright. She lovingly holds baby Palma aloft, who looked noticeably taller than the last time fans saw her—a sure sign that crawling won’t be far off!
The mother-and-daughter duo were clad in white cotton pyjamas adorned with an abstract mountain and skiing print. Captioning the image, Michelle wrote, “Matching with my girl,” while revealing that the snug PJs come in “all sizes” and are “honestly so, so cosy.” Naturally, Michelle proved to be her own best advert, and the sleepwear is now flying off the virtual shelves at Very.co.uk.
Laura Sutcliffe, Fashion and Beauty News Editor at HELLO!, is a big fan of the ‘mummy and me’ matching PJs trend and believes Michelle is the perfect poster girl for it this festive season. In fact, Laura has a pair for her own little girl, Piper.
“As a mother who is unashamedly obsessed with seasonal items for my kids, I really like these matching creations,” Laura said. “Not only are they really soft, but the festive pattern is not too garish. They are unisex, so suitable for both boys and girls. I love the fact that Michelle has changed direction with her Very line—she’s leaning into motherhood—and I can definitely sense a baby range coming up after seeing Palma model these!”
**Precious Baby Palma**
The new mum seems to be relishing celebrating special milestones with baby Palma, eagerly counting down the days until their first Christmas together. Former TOWIE star Mark and Michelle have also had plenty of fun dressing up their daughter for Halloween.
Michelle shared a sneak peek of their family antics on Instagram, showing off Palma’s adorable costume. The baby wore stripy leggings, an orange top, and a tiny hat as she enjoyed a sensory class with her Fool Me Once star mum. Michelle also posted photos of Halloween-themed balloons and lights during the session, captioning one, “Me and my little pumpkin went to our first pumpkin ball.”
Born in March, Palma has clearly been the biggest blessing for Mark and Michelle, who often gush about their firstborn on social media. While the couple, who tied the knot in 2015, have kept details of their life post-parenthood relatively private, Mark’s sister Jessica Wright recently shared some insights into their family dynamic in an interview with The Sun’s Fabulous magazine.
“The cousins absolutely adore her. The three boys are so energetic, but they’re so gentle with her,” Jessica said of Palma. “She’s giggling now, it’s really sweet. They are a little group, and she’s the little princess, as she’s the only girl.”
**Family Life**
Mark Wright offered a rare glimpse into fatherhood during a chat on Heart Radio with Olly Murs, praising Michelle for her strength during labour.
“It’s the biggest achievement of my life, it’s all I think about,” he enthused. “Obviously, hats go off to my wife, she is an absolute superhuman, a superhero for bringing this baby into the world.”
