Mark Wright slams claims he and Michelle Keegan don't spend any time together

Mark Wright has hit back at backlash claiming he and Michelle Keegan rarely spend time with one another.

The reality star who married actress Michelle in 2015 recently jetted out to Ibiza together for some quality time but in recent weeks, they have been plagued by claims they're really together.

Mark has now claimed that their social media followers frequently overreact when the couple upload a picture together, despite the fact they have been married for eight years.

But despite their marriage still being blissful, the pair often choose to keep it out of the limelight due to their scheduling commitments.

Mark, 36, has now explained that he and Michelle just don't share with fans when they are together.

In a new interview, he said: "Do you know what whenever there's a picture of us together people will say 'rare picture of Mark and Michelle' or 'Mark and Michelle reunite after time apart'.

"We just don't tell everyone when we do spend quality time together."

Speaking to the MailOnline, he added: "I could be in the house with Michelle for two weeks, but no one will know that because I'm not necessarily posting about it.

"We spend plenty of quality time together and we've had plenty of weekends away, we have got stuff booked up."

But while they may not share pictures together, the couple often update fans on the renovation of their Essex mansion but he admits the reaction they get still shocks him.

Discussing whether they expected such a reaction, Mark previously told the Mirror: "Not quite as big reaction as we've had.

"It's been incredible, it's fun, we don't show everything but what we do show, people seem to like it."

Mark's admission comes just weeks after reports claimed that the couple were "divided" as Michelle "pined" to be closer to her relatives in Manchester.

Her ongoing apparent struggle to adapt to the change in lifestyle is said to have driven a 'rift' between her and Mark, according to sources.

"Michelle adores her house and what they have built together, but there's a huge part of her that is still pining to be close to her friends and family, which is understandably causing a divide between her and Mark," the insider told Closer Magazine.

"Essex has been her permanent base for over a decade now, but as much as she has tried to settle into life there, she feels like a piece of her is missing and part of her wishes they could move up north where she feels content and comfortable," they added.
