She's probably our fave too

Presenter Mark Wright had fans in hysterics over a conversation with Amazon’s digital assistant, Alexa, where she mentioned his wife, Michelle Keegan.

In the short video, posted to Instagram, the former TOWIE star is off-camera, saying: “Alexa? Who’s your favourite celebrity?”

The device replies in a calm voice: “I like Michelle Keegan.”

His 1.4 million followers loved it and all tried the same question with Alexa.

Most found the coincidence hilarious, commenting: “Omg this is really funny!!” and: “Haha brilliant seems everyone loves your wife.”

The loved-up pair spent Valentine’s Day apart this week, as the former Coronation Street actress left LA to return to work.

On Thursday, the 30-year-old posted a picture of herself on a set, writing alongside a film camera emoji: “What an exciting 1st day!”

Despite being apart, Mark paid tribute to his wife of nearly three years, with a romantic picture of them hugging in front of a sunset.

He wrote beside the sweet photo: “Happy Valentine’s Day to my 1. Love you always.”

The former reality star has been living over in the US since last year, working on US entertainment show, Extra, as a presenter alongside actor Mario Lopez.

He’s interviewed an array of A-listers and this week posted a photo of himself with Stranger Things star, Millie Bobby Brown.

Michelle enjoyed an extended break in California, after wrapping filming on the latest series of Our Girl.

The couple spent quality time together in LA, posting pics and videos of nights out and trips to the ice hockey.

And it’s been rumoured the actress loves it so much in LA, she may move there.

The TV pair have reportedly been house hunting in the Hollywood Hills, and have already viewed several properties, with a budget of around £2 million.

However, it’s unlikely to be a permanent move, as Michelle told Heat magazine last year: “If a job came up in America I’d jump at the chance, but I don’t think I’d move over there because I’m such a homebird.

“If a job came up where I had to live there for a certain amount of time. I’d definitely do it, though.”

And Mark has talked about how much he misses the UK, too, recently confessing how much he craves British comforts.

He tweeted: “Just woke up over here. What I would give for a nice cuppa tea, fry up, Tracky on to meet the boys for a game of football in the rain and then on to the pub for a pint.

He added: “It might be [bleepy] weather over there, but that’s us & sometimes I pine for those moments. #homeishome. ”
