How loved up are they?

He’s known for being pretty emotional and Mark Wright has lived up to that by sending a gushing message to wife Michelle Keegan on her birthday.

Michelle is celebrating the big 3-0  and Mark couldn’t resist taking the opportunity to tell her just how much he loves her.

“Happy birthday to the best friend I ever had,” he wrote alongside the collage of four pictures of them.

“My rock, my love and the person who gives me more joy than anything in the world.

“THE 1… @michkeegan.”

Aw, how cute?

The message comes shortly after the news former TOWIE star Mark could be jetting off to the States for 18 months after being offered a brand new presenting role.

It would mean Mark, 30, would be away from wife Michelle Keegan for a long period of time.

During an appearance on Sunday Brunch, Mark said: “I go back out to the US next week. I’ve also got another show I’m looking at. It’s a big commitment. It’s 18 months and if I decide to do it, it starts in two months.

“It would mean moving to America for 18 months. It’s a big commitment and I don’t know if I’m going to do it yet.”

He added: “Michelle’s currently filming abroad now for a few more months and she finishes at the time this starts, so that will kind of be her turn to travel to where I’m working.

“I’ve been going out to see her lots.”

But speaking about their long-distance relationship Mark said: “I just think you make it work. You just have to put that time aside.

“It keeps it exciting because you get to travel the world together and go and visit each other’s work. It’s good.”

He then gushed: “She really is the most incredible woman. I love her so much. We just make it work.”
