Michelle Keegan – British Celebrity, Actress

Michelle Keegan (full name – Michelle Elisabeth Benson Keegan) was born in Stockport, United kingdom on 3rd June 1987. She now is a recognized British actress yet her experience in acting has not been too diverse. Michelle Keegan spent her childhood and teen-years in Stockport, where she was raised by her step-dad and mother. She was a student of St. Patrick's RC high-school. The idea of becoming an actress was already set in Michelle Keegan's mind at that time and right after the graduation she made the decision to apply for Manchester School of Acting. Luckily, the young achiever was determined and talented enough to be enrolled in the school and that is when the first steps towards being a celebrity were made. Though, acting is not the only job Michelle had done. To make her living, Michelle Keegan had worked at Selfridges shop located in Trafford Center shopping mall and perhaps even some of you have met her in an airport since she used to work as a check-in agent at Manchester Airport.

It is known that Michelle Keegan so far has taken part in only two auditions from which only 1 was truly successful gaining her the fame and recognition. The first audition was for Hollyoaks but Michelle Keegan did not get the desired part. The failure did not make Michelle to change her mind about acting career and in 2007 she went to the audition for the Coronation Street – a well known British TV show watched and loved by millions of viewers. This happened to be a really lucky day for Michelle Keegan – she got the part for Tina McIntyre. And by that her road to the fame and world of celebrities was pretty much guaranteed. As she joined the team of soap opera, she was instantly seen both by the viewers and the media. Several times Michelle Keegan was nominated at British soap awards. She gained the title of Best Newcomer (2008) and Sexiest Female (in 2009 and 2010).

Michelle Keegan's personal life has been rather complicated. It is known that she was engaged once to a star of The Wanted – Max George, yet the relationship never developed to a wedding and the couple broke. She dated Anthony Quinlan for 2 years (from 2006 to 2008) yet this relationship was not a success too. Then she was together with a well-known model Brad Howard for couple of more years (from 2008 to 2010). At the moment Michelle Keegan is dating Mark Wright – the face of many British reality shows.

Michelle Keegan is a bright, young star on the horizon of Brittish television yet it is already known that this is just the beginning of her career of being an brilliant actress – the profession she has desired since her young age.
