Michelle Keegan defended by fans over update days after Mark Wright apology
The Netflix and soap actress has shared a number of snaps to her Instagram, and fans were quick to defend the new mum
Michelle Keegan has been flooded with messages from fans following her latest summer reveal. It comes as the actress is busy soaking up life as a new mum, having recently welcomed her first child with her husband, Mark Wright.
The pair, who shared the joyous news of their daughter's arrival on March 12, have just posted an update as they take their newborn, Palma Elizabeth Wright, on her family holiday. Earlier in April, Michelle and Mark treated their Instagram followers to several sun-filled photos.
Michelle then revisited her account to display her stunning outfits for the getaway, where they resided at the luxurious SO/ Sotogrande Spa and Golf Resort Hotel nestled in Spain's Andalusian countryside.
Michelle has now uploaded a new set of snaps apparently from her Spanish getaway. The actress dazzled in a brown cut-out bathing suit, complemented with an oversized straw hat, matching bag, and a flowing white sarong.
Having been spotted earlier participating in some padel and making the most of the weather as reports Manchester Evening News, Michelle captioned her Instagram: "It's an @orfilabee Summer," signaling fans to snag the chic ensemble from her own label, which she co-founded.
Support poured in for Michelle Keegan as fans rallied to her defence amid a barrage of comments. One person enthused: "This collection is STUNNING @michkeegan."
Another fan was equally complimentary, remarking: "Absolutely beautiful beyond words, and what a stunning range @michkeegan." Someone else stated, pointing out their admiration: "Insane collection, you look incredible."
One fan joined in, saying: "You look amazing Michelle, I love the new swimwear." Someone else encouraged: "You look amazing as always enjoy your time with your gorgeous baby girl and ignore all the haters and negativity."
Another supportive fan commented: "Michelle looks amazing. So unfair on these comments . It takes time to feel okay mentally regardless of physical looks. So what if she has snapped back, she may not feel that way . She is not promating 'snap back after having a baby ' she is making a living."
One questioned the criticism, adding: "So if she hadn't 'snapped back' she'd be ok to post? But because she has she's being told she shouldn't post? . Unreal. You look amazing."
The comments came as Mark expressed regret over a social post that was scheduled concerning flights, which some found insensitive by coinciding with the tragic Air India disaster.
The horror incident involved a Gatwick-bound Boeing 787 Dreamliner, ferrying 242 people, including 53 from the UK, which fatally plummeted soon after departing Ahmedabad Airport in Gujarat.
Mark faced a storm of criticism after sharing a photo on social media, where he was pictured alongside his wife Michelle Keegan and their daughter Palma in front of a private jet, complaining over the lack of legroom on commercial flights.
Following a wave of backlash triggered by his upload, Mark took to Instagram with a public apology: "I apologise for a post I just put up on my page after today's heartbreaking events."
Realising the insensitivity, he swiftly removed the controversial post and elaborated in his apology that it had been pre-scheduled before news of the tragedy broke.
Explaining the sequence of events leading to the mishap, Mark stated: "I have posts from a holiday that are on the scheduled setting, which go out on future days I have set them for which was done last week."
He continued: "It's a horrendous coincidence that today's post was on such a devastating day. Once I logged in to my Instagram and realised the post had gone out, I immediately deleted."
Reflecting sincere remorse, Mark summed up: "My heart goes out to everyone who has been affected from today. I'm sorry for this mistake and any offence caused."

Meghan Markle shares sweet way she keeps little Archie, 6, and Lili, 4, grounded
Meghan Markle explained how she and Prince Harry want their children; Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, to know the value of money, particularly because they have "privilege" Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet sell homegrown fruit and vegetables at a farmers' market to understand the "value of things," Meghan Markle has said. The Duchess of Sussex, 43, believes the practice helps teach her kids the value of money because they are "very lucky" to live in a "privileged" home. She and Prince Harry encourage the children to do gardening regularly, and take pride in the crops in order to sell them at a market in Montecito, California. Meghan said: "There's a cost and a price for things, and I think that's key for children to understand, especially children who are very lucky to have a home, that has privilege, you need to know that just like manners, and taking care of the things around you, there is a value on things." Speaking to her friend and fellow podcaster Emma Grede, British-born CEO of fashion brand Good American and a founding partner of Kim Kardashian's Skims line, the duchess added: "Gardening is really really so great for children because it teaches them patience and teaches them to value and appreciate their food." Recently, Meghan posted a sweet image of the Sussexes' beagle Mia sniffing a basket of fresh produce seemingly grown in the garden of her mansion in Montecito. At the time, the mum said she prepares Archie and Lilibet's packed lunches with vegetables grown in the garden. "I love it at the end of a long day. The kids are down to bed at like 7ish. I can go downstairs have a glass of wine [and] I'm doing their little lunch. I find joy in it for whatever reason and it can be therapeutic. That for me is one of my simple pleasures," Meghan continued on the podcast. This is such a key age. I don't want to miss a moment for my children and I love that I can do drop off and pick up at school and do meetings in between and go to Disneyland for two days, as we just did. And, you know, volunteer to serve hot lunch at school or be the chaperone for the kindergarten field trip." The former actress, who grew up in California, juggles her business As Ever with parenting. She has been using podcasting - and other media - recently to promote her business, including dropping cryptic hints on Instagram at "surprises" which await fans later this week. A post on the brand's official page was captioned: "Oh yes, things await. Mark your calendars for June 20 at 8 a.m. PT – we're bringing back your favorites, plus some delicious surprises you won't want to miss!"
