Mark Wright has shared a glimpse inside his and Michelle Keegan’s adorable party for their daughter as she turned one over the weekend.
Fans may recall that the couple revealed to the world that they were expecting their first child together in a sweer pregnancy announcement just after Christmas 2024.
They later announced they’d welcomed their daughter into the world on March 12, almost a week after she was born, before confirming they’d chosen the name Palma Elizabeth Wright for their baby girl.
Alongside a black and white photo of them holding their newborn’s tiny hand on Instagram, actress Michelle and presenter Mark told their millions of followers on March 12: “Together we have a new love to share … Our little girl. Palma Elizabeth Wright… 06.03.25.”
While Michelle, 38, and Mark, 39, do keep much of their personal life out of the spotlight, they do share the odd update on being parents and give glimpses of their daughter, whose face they are keeping protected from the public glare.
And it was Mark who was seen resharing a video from one of the companies involved in putting their daughter’s first birthday party together as he told his millions of followers: “Our little girl turned 1 [pink heart emoji].”

It seems the celebrity couple, who marked their 10th wedding anniversary last year, recruited the assistance of esteemed event planners Luxe Events And Parties to put on the special event, held at their stunning Essex mansion.
The theme of the bash appeared to be pink pastel with bows, as a welcome board read ‘Welcome to Palma’s ONEderful 1st birthday’, while the cake read ‘Isn’t she lovely, isn’t she ONEderful’. The indoor space as well as an outdoor tepee had been filled with pink and white elements including a soft play set-up, that had been personalised with Palma’s name, and and a bouncy castle.
There were also some cocktails on offer for the adults, which were called P’s Party Starter, Bubbly First Birthday and Palma Tini, with the menu for the event framed and sitting among flowers and champagne bottles, with personalised biscuits also adoring tables. Meanwhile, the young guests were kept entertained by an impersonator of children’s YouTube sensation, Ms. Rachel.

It comes after Mark and Michelle shared updates from their holiday at the start of the year, revealing that they had escaped the winter blues and had been enjoying a stay at the lavish £2,000-a-night Rixos Premium Saadiyat Island hotel in Abu Dhabi.
Following the end of their trip, Mark took to Instagram with some snaps, including a sweet photo of baby Palma, 10 months, crawling on the beach to her beaming parents. The pair looked in their element, with Michelle sporting a white linen jumpsuit over a brown bikini, while Mark donned a black shirt and matching shorts, as they watched their daughter crawl towards them.
The Heart Radio star also shared a sweet photo of his wife doting on Palma on the beach at sunset, captioning his post: “Special memories spent with my 2 girls, my [world emoji]. What a beautiful resort @rixospremiumsaadiyat thank you for having us #abudhabi #saadiyat #prstay #holiday #memories.”
