Michelle Keegan admits fears over making the right decisions

Many people can probably relate...

| Updated:

Michelle Keegan has admitted she, like many of us, often worries that she’s made the wrong choice.

The Our Girl actress told Stylist magazine that she’s the “worst in the world at making decisions” and when she has picked a path, still worries whether it’s the right one.

Michelle, 31, revealed: “I’m the worst in the world at making decisions. I need people to make them for me – I’m always worried about making the wrong choice.

“Although with work I always go with my instinct no matter what.”

The former Coronation Street actress certainly hasn’t made any wrong decisions when it comes to work, right? So clearly her instinct is spot on!

She made the difficult decision to leave her steady role as Tina McIntyre in Corrie back in 2013, deciding it was time to look at other work opportunities.

Since then, she’s earned rave reviews for programmes including BBC One’s Our Girl and Ordinary Lies, and ITV’s Tina and Bobby.

She’s also a fashionista with her own Very.co.uk clothing range and has a new movie, Strangeways Here We Come, out soon.

However, Michelle told Stylist she never thinks too far into the future in terms of what she wants to achieve in life.

“I take each day as it comes. I think you have to, otherwise you’d go insane,” she explained.

One thing Michelle won’t be doing, however, is Strictly Come Dancing.

She’s often rumoured as a possible contestant on the hit TV show, which her husband Mark Wright previously appeared on, but both she and Mark have denied it will happen.

During an appearance on Good Morning Britain last week, Mark laughed off the reports, saying Michelle is too “busy” with other TV projects.

He said: “If she’s going to be in some of them grubs in the jungle or dancing on Strictly, she’s doing it without telling me!”

Michelle, meanwhile, told Jessie Ware’s Table Manners Podcast she couldn’t sign for Strictly as thought of performing live scared her.

I’ll be honest, watching [Mark] do it terrified me,” she said.

“The idea of the live audience terrifies me.”
