Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright squash marriage struggle rumours

However, just last month, headlines suggested there could be troubles behind the scenes…
‘There could be some tension bubbling away under the surface’
According to sources at Heat, Mark Wright is struggling with Michelle’s ongoing huge success. Her acting career continues to thrive; meanwhile, Mark is allegedly said to feel like he’s “been eclipsed” by his superstar other half.
The source claimed that former TOWIE star Mark is keen to work with his wife Michelle on a new project. This particular role will put them on the TV screen together.
“On paper, Mark and Michelle are a dream pairing. They’re both hugely successful, they’ve got massive fanbases and TV execs feel that viewers would love to see more of them as a couple. There have been countless conversations about possible projects – from co-hosting shows to glossy lifestyle series and a fly-on-the-wall documentary,” they alleged.
“Mark is definitely the one who gets excited by those ideas. He thinks people would enjoy seeing more of what they’re like at home and he’d jump at the chance if the right project came along.”
The source noted that there are moments where Mark “can’t help feeling envious of how in-demand she is”.
“Friends are worried there could be some tension bubbling away under the surface,” they added.
