Michelle Keegan on balancing work and motherhood
Meanwhile, Michelle has recently spoken about the less glamorous side of juggling acting and motherhood.
Speaking to Grazia, she explained that she accepted her role in ITV’s The Blame before Palma was born. She plays DI Emma Crane in the crime drama.
Michelle said she had expected to manage full-time work and parenting, but found the reality much harder. “But it is hard. It’s really hard.”
