Michelle Keegan shares stunning selfie as she gears up for first TV role since birth of baby daughter Palma
cut a chic figure in striped trousers as she shared a series of snaps to her Instagram Stories on Thursday. The actress, 38, looked incredible in a brown vest top and matching trousers as she snapped a mirror selfie. Alongside her post, she penned 'Stripes all around' as she was seen posing in her bathroom. Her post comes after she revealed she has teamed up with Line Of Duty and Black Mirror stars for an 'unmissable' new ITV drama called The Blame. Michelle will turn into a detective to solve a murder mystery with a 'tangled web of lies' in the upcoming new show, which is based on Charlotte Langley's book of the same name. Fool Me Once star Michelle will take on the role of DI Emma Crane, while Line of Duty legend Nigel Boyle is a forensic technician called Brett Shergill. They aren't the only famous faces that viewers will recognise as Black Mirror's Joe Armstrong has landed the role of a ice-skating coach called Kyle Fraiser. They will be joined by the likes of The Last Kingdom's Ian Hart, Nathan Mensah, Passenger's Matilda Freeman, House of the Dragon 's Gavin Spokes, Last Tango in Halifax's Josh Bolt and White Lines star Ceallach Spellman. 'The drama dives into secrets, suspicion and systemic corruption - all under the surface of this seemingly quiet town,' the official ITV press release states. TV's Director of Drama, Polly Hill, has commissioned the new six-part series which has been produced by Quay Street Productions. Fans hopefully shouldn't have to wait that long until it hits our screens as filming will commence in the UK's capital and the surrounding areas. 'The series begins when the body of teenage figure skater Sophie Madsen is discovered, sending shockwaves through the town of Wakestead. 'As DI Crane (Keegan) and DI Radley (Booth) dig deeper, what starts as a tragic death, spirals into a tangled web of lies, institutional cover-ups, and moral compromise. 'As the clock ticks and trust fractures, Crane must navigate both a murder investigation and the treacherous politics inside her own team,' the press release adds. Polly Hill said: 'The Blame is a brilliant new crime thriller full of surprising twists and a compelling investigation that also cleverly tackles police corruption, exploitation and misogyny as the thriller unravels. 'Megan is such a wonderful and clever writer, and with Michelle Keegan in the lead and Nicola Shindler at the helm, this is going to be an unmissable drama and one I'm very proud to have on ITV.' The show has been written and executively produced by the woman behind Her Fault and Wolf Megan Gallagher. Mary said: 'The Blame is such an important and urgent story to tell; I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to bring Charlotte Langley's world and characters to life on screen. 'It's my second collaboration with Quay Street Productions, and it's great to be working with the team again - I'm truly in the best hands.' While the executive producer for Quay Street Productions, Nicola Schindler and Richard Fee, said: 'We are so delighted to be working with Megan again. 'She is an exceptional writer who has written a compelling series taking viewers on a twisty journey to discover what really happened through the lens of a contemporary police station brimming with secrets, corruption, and betrayal. 'We are also thrilled at the brilliant cast led by Michelle and Douglas, who will keep viewers on the edge of their seats, wondering who to trust at a time when the themes explored in The Blame are more relevant than ever.' This is one of Michelle's first roles since welcoming her daughter Palma, who she shares with husband Mark Wright, into the world. The former Corrie star gave birth to her baby girl back in March this year. They announced the happy news that they were expecting back in December 2024. The last TV show that she starred in was Netflix's Fool Me Once, where she played Maya Stern in the drama. That was back in 2024. She's also still playing the roles of Kate Thorne in Ten Pound Poms and Erin Croft in Brassic.
