Michelle Keegan was “humbled” by her family as they taunted her with a throwback snap from her time on Coronation Street. In 2008, a 20 year old Michelle, now 35, beat out 900 other actors for the role of Tina McIntyre and quickly became one of the standout fan favourites on the soap.
From 2010, she was the barmaid of the instantly recognisable Rovers Return and had notable relationships with Jack P. Shepherd’s David Platt, Chris Fountain’s Tommy Duckworth and Chris Gascoyne’s Peter Barlow.
On Thursday, the actress, who is now married to former TOWIE star Mark Wright, took to Instagram with a screenshot of a conversation with her brother Andrew.
The message came at 8am and showed a baby-faced Michelle from her time on the ITV soap, complete with her iconic hopped earrings and the message: “Morning.” It’s not known whether Michelle replied to her brother, though she added in the caption: “No one humbles you like your family.” Following her stint on the soap, which ended when she was violently murdered by Carla Connor’s brother, Rob Donovan, played by Marc Baylis, Michelle worked on projects like Plebs, Our Girl and Brassic.
