It’s been a while since there’s been any speculation about Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan’s marriage, but the rumour mill has pointed in their direction again now.
There are reports that the Take Me Out: The Gossip host was forced to fly back from a business trip in LA earlier this month after news emerged that he had been spotted at the same party as his ex Lucy Mecklenburgh.

Fans of TOWIE will recall he dated the brunette beauty back in 2010.
According to these reports, Michelle was not happy after learning the former lovers had been at such close quarters again, and Mark got on a plane home to smooth the situation over.
A ‘source’ told The Sun: “Mark was at the Pretty Little Things fashion launch in West Hollywood on Tuesday April 11, and Lucy was also there and seen chatting to Mark.
“They were just talking, nothing happened between them.
“But when Michelle realised he had been socialising with Lucy a few days later, she wasn’t happy — and by April 15 he was on a plane home.”
Mark, 30, was seemingly in Los Angeles to try and land some TV work, while actress Michelle Keegan, 29, was busy in her hometown Manchester.

This latest gossip about their marriage is unlikely to faze the pair, as the approach their second wedding anniversary
Clearl besotted with his wife, Mark recently said: “The most important thing is your personal life, especially if you’re in a relationship. Your relationship comes first.”
The couple will soon be facing the long-distance thing again, when Michelle heads off to film series three of Our Girl in Nepal and South Africa.
Mark has admitted that it’s going to be very “difficult” for him to be apart from his other half, but added that “it doesn’t matter what the job is, you make it work”.
Opening up to Fabulous magazine, he conceded that he does get frustrated with the constant gossip surrounding his marriage too.
“People won’t stop saying we are splitting up until Michelle gets pregnant. We do want to have kids but in our own time, not just yet,” he said.
“The rumours started when we were on our honeymoon. We just ignore it now. I saw one story about us never seeing each other when I was lying in bed with Michelle in South Africa!
“We’re rock solid.”

Gushing about how stunning she is, the reality star said Michelle’s “gorgeous 24/7”.
“She looks great with no make-up and jogging bottoms on, and she looks incredible when she gets dressed up for a smart event. I get completely overawed by how beautiful she is”, he added.
Hmmm, we think there’s nothing for him – or Michelle – to worry about here.
