Michelle Keegan’s baby daughter Palma’s first year in rare photos – including tiny ponytail

Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright are celebrating a milestone day on 6 March as their daughter, Palma Elizabeth Wright, turns one. Since giving birth to her first child a year ago, Fool Me Once star Michelle, 38, has kept her tot’s face out of the public eye, but she has delighted fans with photos from her first year by sharing carefully angled snaps with her face shielded, offering insights into their time spent at the couple’s £3.5 million Essex pad and on Palma’s first holiday. 

Having kept public appearances to a minimum since becoming a mother (an Estee Lauder event in LA and Cannes Film Festival being the exceptions), Michelle has yet to comment publicly on how this new chapter is treating her. However, she has documented sweet family moments on Instagram. To gain an insight into their adventures over the past year, keep scrolling…

In December, Palma joined her parents on a festive dinner at London’s Corinthia hotel. “A little bit of Christmas magic this weekend,” the former Coronation Street star wrote, captioning a photo of the trio in a lift with Palma wearing a cute red cardigan with the words ‘Palma believes’ embroidered on the back.

Meanwhile, in April 2025, Palma once again joined Mark and Michelle at the five-star hotel and was dressed in a branded robe personalised with her name in pink writing while sucking on her dummy. “This photo one more time because I cannot copeeeeeee with just how adorable the little robe is!!!,” her mother gushed.

In November, Palma looked adorable in pyjamas that matched her mum. Styling it out in items from Michelle’s Very range, the mother-daughter duo were pictured embracing in their living room at home.

Last June, Palma jetted off with her parents for her first holiday abroad. The clan topped up their vitamin D from the five-star SO/ Sotogrande Spa & Golf Resort Hotel in Cádiz, Spain, and enjoyed plenty of pool time. “Princess P’s first family holiday,” Michelle wrote, revealing her sweet nickname for her daughter. Mark’s sister, fellow TOWIE alum Jessica Wright, joined them on the trip and commented: “Best time with our princess.”

Happy Mother’s Day,” she remarked, sharing photos from her day spent with Mark and Palma at the four-star Roslin Beach Hotel in Southend.
