Michelle Keegan's parenting style is causing havoc in Essex – as jealous local mums tell us why they're fuming
Michelle has caused a stir among local mums who are said to be desperate to befriend her after the birth of her daughter CHELLE'S HELL Michelle Keegan's parenting style is causing havoc in Essex – as jealous local mums tell us why they're fuming Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MICHELLE Keegan is basking in joy since the birth of her beautiful baby girl - but cruel whispers could trouble her happiness. It is claimed that 'jealous' locals are reportedly unimpressed with her seemingly effortless postpartum journey, which she's been documenting online in the weeks since her and hubby Mark Wright's daughter, Palma, was born. 9 Michelle Keegan pictured on holiday in Spain with her baby daughter Palma Credit: Instagram 9 The couple out and about with their daughter on a holiday in Marbella, Spain Credit: BackGrid 9 Mums in Essex are said to be furious with how quickly the TV star has bounced back from giving birth Credit: Orfila 9 Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan's schedules don't appear to have slowed down since welcoming their baby daughter into the world Credit: Instagram / @wrighty_ Michelle, who recently bagged herself a six-figure sum to become the new face of Sky, has been excitedly sharing snaps of her living it up at the Cannes film festival, on holiday in Spain and showing off her incredible post-baby figure in tiny swimsuits from her own fashion range. But a source claims that fellow Essex mums are turning on the star because they believe Michelle, 38, is 'rubbing people up the wrong way' by not showing the 'reality' of life with a newborn. 'Local mums seem to be pretty jealous that Michelle has bounced back from having a baby so quickly and so effortlessly,' a source told Fabulous. 'Pretty jealous' 'It has rubbed them up the wrong way that she's showing off her incredible postpartum figure on lavish holidays just weeks after giving birth. 'A lot of them - like most new mums - are struggling to form a sentence, they're so tired, so to watch as Michelle goes and secures a six-figure deal with a huge company, with barely a hair out of place, well they can't get their heads around it. 'These are women who pride themselves on looking good and presenting themselves in the most glam way possible, and they can't believe Michelle is walking the walk while they struggle with sleepless nights and screaming babies.' Sources claim that Michelle's seemingly 'easy' postpartum journey has been the talk of mum and baby groups in the Ongar and Epping Forest area of Essex, where she and Mark, 38, have lived since 2019. While some women are in awe of Michelle and celebrate the fact that she appears to be smashing motherhood, others are scratching their heads as to why the former Corrie actress isn't showing the downsides of postpartum life. The source claimed: 'Everybody's journey is different, so it's weird why some people are so fixated on Michelle and how well she's doing.' 'Some mums are complaining that she should use her platform as a celeb to show how difficult these first few months can be, to make other new mums feel better, but instead she's showing off her holidays and going to award shows in expensive outfits. Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan take newborn baby Palma to another luxury hotel as they stay in £21k a night suite 'They say she's not being real, which is strange, as a lot of these women don't actually know Michelle or her experience. It's up to her what she does and doesn't share on social media.' Indeed, Michelle has always been very careful not to share anything negative with her 7.5 million Instagram followers, preferring to focus on successful professional achievements and fun family adventures. Recent posts, shared since Palma's birth on March 6th, have included shots of her showing off her figure in her Orfila Bee swimwear range, walking the red carpet at Cannes as an ambassador for L'Oreal, images of her modelling her Very clothing collection, stills from her hit Sky show Brassic and snaps of her in a bikini on holiday in Spain with her daughter. 'Winding them up' But envious local mums believe Michelle is out of touch, an insider claims. 'The complaint is mainly that she's showing off a life which is so unattainable to most people, especially struggling new mums, that it's winding them up,' the source continued. 'Where's the tired eyes, the wobbly belly? I think the bitterness comes from the fact that a lot of them expected her to be a regular at the baby groups in town, but she's actually very busy and selective right now. 9 Michelle has embraced motherhood but been slammed for not showcasing the reality of mum life Credit: Instagram 9 Michelle at the Cannes Film Festival back in May, just two months after giving birth to Palma Credit: Splash 9 Michelle's Instagram is full of happy family snaps and career achievements and paints a perfect picture other mums claim Credit: Instagram 9 Michelle is busier than after becoming a mum and launched her latest High Summer collection with Very recently Credit: 'Perhaps that annoys people who thought they might get to befriend her.' According to our insider, Michelle is well-liked around Ongar but is relatively private due to her busy schedule. Many mums thought that having Palma would automatically make Michelle a stay-at-home mum who would fully integrate herself into the community. The source added: 'Everyone in Essex would love to be friends with Mark and Michelle. The complaint is mainly that she's showing off a life which is so unattainable to most people, especially struggling new mums, that it's winding them up Source 'But the reality is, she's flying in her career right now and doesn't appear to be slowing down, so I doubt she'll be filling her days at the local playgroup. 'I think a lot of women are disappointed they won't actually be spending much time with her.' Michelle's mum, Jackie, has reportedly been staying with her and Mark to help with Palma, which is no doubt another reason why Michelle has been able to juggle motherhood, work and getting back into shape. And it hasn't gone unnoticed by fans, many who have been quick to heap praise on Michelle. 'How does anyone look that amazing after just having a baby?' asked one gobsmacked follower in response to Michelle showing off her range with which included plunging bodycon dresses. Another joked, 'You look absolutely stunning…I am still trying to get my post-baby figure back, and my baby is 17 this year!' Mark and Michelle have been careful to keep Palma out of the limelight, opting to secure her face in any public social media posts. However, they have shown the back of the little one in various pics with her family, including Mark's sister Jessica and mum Carol. The clan have been sunning themselves in Spain while Michelle celebrates the incredible Sky deal, which will see her share a screen with actor Idris Elba in new promo ads, to be broadcast across the world. A source previously told The Sun: 'Landing this ad is huge for Michelle, as she's fast becoming a brand in her own right. Everything she touches seems to turn to gold.' 9 Michelle Keegan and husband Mark Wright put on a loved-up display as they enjoy their first night out since welcoming their baby daughter Palma in March Credit: Instagram Mark Wright's career timeline Since rising to fame over a decade ago as a reality TV star, popular personality Mark Wright has gone on to enjoy a successful career.
