Michelle Keegan proved there's nothing better than a UK staycation in the summer holidays.

Enjoying a trip to Hampton Court Palace with her daughter Palma, the Manchester-born actress shared photos of herself dressing for the sunny weather in a white maxi skirt and matching tank top.

Despite her young age, one-year-old Palma similarly showed off her style credentials in a cute playsuit, opting for a more playful rainbow-striped colourway. The little girl paired her adorable summer outfit with white Crocs that allowed her maximum comfort to explore the historic surroundings.

This marks one of the very rare insights Michelle and her husband Mark Wright have shared about Palma's character since her birth in March 2025.

The notoriously private parents have shared a handful of photos of Palma's cute fashion choices, but tend to keep her identity private on social media.

The couple announced the birth with a black-and-white photograph of them holding their newborn's hand, captioned: "Together we have a new love to share… Our little girl. Palma Elizabeth Wright".

On trying to navigate her busy career and motherhood, the Our Girl actress told Grazia ahead of giving birth: "I'm going to take a good chunk of time off to enjoy being a mum. I'm never normally at home in the summer, I've always been away working, so I can't wait."

She later spoke candidly with host Graham Norton about the reality of life as a working mother at the ITV Showcase 2026, admitting it was "quite daunting."

Speaking fondly about her work on The Blame, she said: "The production were so supportive and I was so looked after, and it was like working with family."

Controversy at Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright's home

The couple's home in Essex has been the centre of speculation recently

Last week, Mark and Michelle found themselves at the centre of speculation regarding their £3.5 million Essex mansion

The property was pictured surrounded by vibrant green lawns despite Essex & Suffolk Water implementing a hosepipe ban since 3 August.

While some raised questions about how they've managed to keep it looking so healthy, it could be because their ban came into effect much later than other parts of the country.
