Mark Wright willing to make huge sacrifice for wife Michelle Keegan

Not that he thinks it will ever happen!

Mark Wright has said he’d quit his lucrative TV job in America if that’s what wife Michelle Keegan wanted.

The former TOWIE star, 31, landed a massive opportunity in the States last year, when he bagged himself a showbiz correspondent role on television show Extra.

Not that he expects she ever will!

Mark said: “I mean, if Michelle didn’t like living here and she wanted me to move home, and she preferred life back home, then for sure I would. That comes first.

“But that wouldn’t happen. Michelle would never say to me, ‘I want you to come home.’ She wants me to conquer my dreams as I want her to conquer her dreams.

“It’s not going to come to that, but if it ever did, then yes, of course.

“Marriage and my love life is definitely first.”

Mark and Michelle, 30, have spent much of the last year separated as he was based in LA for work while she filmed Our Girl all around the world.

“I miss her and she misses me,” said Mark.

“Right now we make sure we see each other as much as we can.”

The couple, who married in 2015, have frequently had to fend off rumours about the state of their marriage, and have always said they’re stronger than ever, despite the distance between them.

Michelle spent weeks with Mark in LA recently, after wrapping filming on Our Girl.

She previously told Closer magazine she tries to look at the positives of working on opposite sides of the world, which includes really appreciating their time together when it comes.

“Last year I had a lot of time off work so we literally spent all day and night together, but at the moment it’s nice to spend some time apart and be able to miss each other again,” she said.
