Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan’s Baby Gender Hinted at by Close Friend

Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan thrilled fans on Sunday with the announcement of their first pregnancy, revealing that 2025 will be a life-changing year for the couple. Michelle shared the joyous news on social media, showing off her blossoming baby bump on a picturesque beach. Their announcement was met with a flood of congratulatory messages from family, friends, and celebrity well-wishers.

However, excitement over their big reveal took an unexpected turn when longtime friend Dylan Hunt appeared to drop a major hint about the baby’s gender. In the comments, Dylan quipped, “Make sure he’s good looking and rich, then I might let him take Gia out,” implying the couple might be expecting a boy. Fans were quick to catch on, with one replying, “So it’s a boy lol.”

Mark and Michelle’s pregnancy announcement follows years of speculation about when they would start a family. Married since 2015, the couple had faced persistent questions about parenthood, which they handled with grace and privacy. In a 2019 interview, Mark shared his intention to focus on family life when the time felt right, explaining that he wanted to “travel out” and fully prepare for the next chapter.

Michelle, fresh off a successful year starring in the Netflix hit Fool Me Once, has also expressed her determination to keep family matters private. She now looks forward to embracing her biggest role yet — becoming a mum.

The baby announcement has delighted their extended family. Mark’s father, Mark Snr, excitedly shared, “4th grandchild incoming and can’t wait xxxx.” His sister, Jess Wright, reshared the pregnancy post, adding, “Finally, the news is out,” with a heart emoji. Friends like James Argent, Mark’s former TOWIE co-star, expressed heartfelt congratulations, saying, “I love you and I’m so happy for you both. You’re going to be amazing parents.”

As speculation swirls around their baby’s gender, Mark and Michelle’s excitement is palpable. The announcement marks a joyous milestone in their love story, and fans can’t wait to see the couple embrace their new roles as parents in 2025.
