Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan share parenting flight tip after 'scary' warning
Mark Wright recently returned from a family holiday to Spain where he went with his wife, Michelle Keegan, and baby daughter, Palma, who had her first experience of an aeroplane
Mark Wright shared a parenting flight hack he and his wife Michelle Keegan executed after being warned about how 'scary' flying with an infant could be.
The celebrity couple became parents in March and in recent days they took baby girl Palma on her first ever family holiday abroad. And despite being anxious, travelling with the tot went smoothly.
The Only Way is Essex star Mark, 38, returned from his trip to Spain for his Heart FM radio show with Olly Murs.
And opening up about his sunny voyage, he said: 'I've just got back from Spain. It was lovely, bit of tapas. Palma's first holiday, she was fantastic.'
He described the break with his loved ones as 'amazing' and explained how he and actress Michelle, 38, navigated the plane journey.
He said earlier this morning: 'We come up with a great plan on the flight because you warned me about how scary it could be with a new kid on a flight.
'We just made sure we fed her on the way up for the take off, two-and-a-half hour flight, fed her on the way down, she slept during the middle, it was beautiful.'
Olly replied: 'Mate, that is exactly that plan we tried to do for Miami but we realised the flight is ten hours!'
Mark, laughing, responded: 'It didn't work.'
Olly was in Miami where he spent time writing more songs and he described having a 'mad four or five weeks' where 'so much has been happening to me'.
He also spoke about having to pull the plug on a Glasgow gig during the show after his voice started to give way.
Referencing the unfortunate moment from last month, he said on his radio show: 'Obviously I got ill in Glasgow and had to cancel some shows which still really hurts me to say because I'm not that type of artist.'
Michelle meanwhile, who has 7.5 million followers on Instagram, shared pictures of the family holiday to the Sotogrande Spa & Golf Resort Hotel.
Writing a post, she said: 'Princess P's first family holiday.'
Another wrote: 'Love the fact she didn't have a baby until 37. Now she can enjoy it. She didn't feel pressured and I'm glad you have shown there is no rush.'
A third added: 'The first holiday is always full of such fond memories, and is also the most anxiety provoking. Looks like you smashed it.'
Mark also shared a video from the trip showing how he surprised his nephews at the resort, saying: 'I arrived at the resort a day earlier than my nephews, who never knew I was going to be on the same holiday…. When they saw me, they were buzzing.'
