After Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright shared a video to show the Christmas decorations at their huge mansion, some fans accused the couple of flaunting their wealth
Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright have been criticised by some fans after sharing details of the Christmas decorations at their £3.5million mansion.
The actress, known for her roles as Tina McIntyre in Coronation Street and Georgie Lane in Our Girl, and her husband shared a video on their “wrightyhome” Instagram profile. The clip shows the outside of their home full of fairy lights, with decorations on the Georgian-style windows, leaves around the door, reindeers and Christmas trees.
Moving indoors, the video shows a huge Christmas tree decorated with red and gold baubles, and baubles all the way up their huge staircase. They wrote in the caption: “It’s that time of year again!! The best time of the year!! Just when you think @4.seasonevents can’t do any better…. Killed it.”
But some fans didn’t appreciate the video as they accused the couple of being “distasteful” when they posted the clip. A person said: “Looks lovely but flaunting your wealth when some families can’t afford even one set of tree lights is distasteful. Happy for you just don’t rub it in to less fortunate families.”
Someone else added: “Beautiful but why such a big house for two people.” A person commented: “Very cold and empty house.” Someone else added: “I’m sick of being a millionaire, what should I do with my money?”
However, others supported Michelle and Mark with a fan saying: “How beautiful! Instead of people whinging take it as inspiration. They have worked b****y hard, taken opportunities and now have a beautiful home and lifestyle and if I was spending that amount of money on decorations it would go up in November too! Merry Christmas @wrighty_ @michkeegan xxx.”
One more wrote: “It looks beautiful…I’m still debating whether to put my heating on mind.” Someone else simply commented: “WOW.” Michelle and Mark have been married for nine years and the actress recently admitted that their dating life isn’t as rock and roll as it used to be, as she lifted the lid on their lives behind closed doors.
Speaking to Closer magazine, she said: “I’m happy to have a night on the sofa with our dogs watching TV and relaxing. But we do still like to get dressed up and go out for dinner. In the old days, we’d go out for dinner and drinks until the early hours. But now, after dinner, I’ll look at my watch and say, ‘It’s 9:30pm, we’d better get back home for bedtime!’ It’s a bit more boring now!”
Despite this, it seems that Michelle is keeping busy with her impressive acting career and it look like she’ll have plenty of high-profile projects in the future. Danny Brocklehurst, a producer who has worked with Michelle on shows like Brassic, has predicted she’ll be in high demand now.
Speaking to the Daily Star, he said: “I think there’s a very high chance we won’t be able to get her for TV shows in the future.” Michelle’s latest acting job in Fool Me Once has soared in popularity, becoming Netflix’s most-watched series so far this year and enthralling viewers across the globe.
