Michelle Keegan poses with Mark Wright and family ahead of Netflix star's wedding
Michelle Keegan and her husband Mark Wright, along with his family, were amongst the string of celebrity guests in attendance to Netflix star Millie Bobby Brown's Italian wedding to Jake Bongiovi. The Stranger Things star tied the knot to the model son of Jon Bon Jovi on Wednesday, 2 October at Villa Cetinale in Italy, after officially becoming husband and wife in a secret ceremony in May.
And celebrating with them was the Keegan-Wright's, as Michelle looked stunning in a blush pink strapless mini dress while posing alongside Mark, who donned a beige suit. Mark's sister Jess shared some snaps from the celebrations, captioning: "A weekend in Italy celebrating love. Congratulations @milliebobbybrown & @jakebongiovi you make the most beautiful couple"
Jess donned a black dress with an asymmetric hem and ruffle detail and her husband, William Lee Kemp, opted for a baby blue suit. William marked Jess and Mark's dad, who had the same shade suit on, while their mum Carol went for a monochrome gown.

While an unlikely friendship, Hollywood star Millie has opened up about her bond with former TOWIE star Mark in the past. Admitting that she was a big fan of Mark's and saw an opportunity to connect while both of the British stars were in Los Angeles, she said: "I'm a huge fan of TOWIE and I was doing press in LA, saw him [Mark] and introduced myself.
"He told me he was a fan of my work too and our families bonded. Now we're friends and go on family vacations together all the time".
Millie and Jake looked ever the smitten couple on their big day, with the latter sharing a carousel of pictures from the nuptials and writing: "Forever and always, your husband". Similarly, Millie posted her own share of pictures and wrote: "forever and always, your wife."
And with Millie having found fame in the States, it seems Michelle could be following in her footsteps. Following the massive success of her recent Netflix drama Fool Me Once, producer Danny Brocklehurst, who has collaborated with the 37 year old actress on several projects, including Brassic, recently predicted that her career is on the cusp of transitioning to the big screen.
In an interview with the Daily Star newspaper, he revealed: "I think there's a very high chance we won't be able to get her for TV shows in the future." The popularity of Fool Me Once has made it the most-watched series of the year on Netflix, captivating audiences worldwide.
Writer Harlan Coben, who worked with Michelle on the show, has been inundated with requests from Hollywood executives eager to initiate talks with the talented actress. He praised Michelle, saying: "Michelle is so talented. She's a great person to work with. Hollywood executives are always asking me, 'How do I get in touch with Michelle?'"
