MARK Wright has shared a very rare snap with his pregnant wife Michelle Keegan as they went on a lunch date today.
The pair put on a brave face after four masked raiders broke into their £3.5million mansion – leaving them terrified.

It is the first time Mark has shared a picture of his wife Michelle since they announced she was pregnant last year.
Actress Michelle, 37, showed off a glimpse of her bump in a white shirt as she cuddled up to Mark, 38.
The star has recently wrapped filming Brassic ahead of welcoming their first child, which is thought to be just weeks away.
The Sun told this week how the couple locked themselves in a bedroom when they heard a window smash and the alarm go off at their home.
It was understood four suspects were inside the property for around a minute but left when they heard Mark yelling.
Police were also alerted via the state-of-the-art security system, and arrived at the couple’s Essex mansion within minutes.
By then the gang, said to be wearing balaclavas and all dressed in black, had fled empty-handed in a getaway car.
Mark and Michelle, were said to be relieved but “very shaken up” by the ordeal.
A source told The Sun: “It was a traumatic experience for both of them but they are relieved that neither of them were injured.
“Mark did the sensible thing and stayed with his wife to make sure she was OK and they waited for police to arrive before leaving the room. It was a horrible thing to go through, particularly for someone who is heavily pregnant.
“They are understandably very shaken up by what happened.”
Mark and Michelle began building their dream home in 2020 — inspired by Hollywood properties and Georgian architecture — and it took two years to complete.
Experts said the villains could have been attracted to the house by the couple’s Instagram page, which details how they created their “dream home.”
The account, Wrightyhome, has 663,000 followers and has been viewed by millions.
Last week the couple and their home also featured in a glossy spread in Hello! magazine.

MARK Wright set up an Instagram account so fans could see the couple “create our dream home” from scratch in 2021.
Wrightyhome’s 663,000 followers were treated to dozens of interior and exterior photos and videos of the house, which boasts a swimming pool, luxury gym and bespoke kitchen.
There are also aerial “before-and-after” shots of the Essex property, which was completed in 2023.
Mark’s last post on the account was as recent as February 8, when he shared photos of the “mind-blowing” staircase.
Companies who worked on the property have also shared pictures and videos online.
Mark’s wife Michelle Keegan told last year of the “sacrifices” they made to get it done.
She said: “It still gets me emotional. Because we’ve worked really hard for it. We’ve had to make a lot of sacrifices. I missed lots of milestones in my life due to work. Mark went to LA and we spent months apart, which was hard. But, it’s worth it.
“And the house — it’s also about security. Because you never know when all this is going to end.”
