Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan make parenting decision to protect new baby

Palma, the couple’s first child, was born earlier this month, and Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan are said to be “incredibly protective” of their daughter.

Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan are reportedly only letting immediate family see their new baby as they take time adjusting to their new lives.

The proud parents welcomed Palma Elizabeth Wright into the world on March 6 and told fans they had a “new love”. Netflix star, Michelle, 37, posted a sweet snap of little Palma on Instagram shortly after her birth. But now, she and Mark are said to be keeping access to their daughter strictly limited to their closest family.

A source said, “These first few days have been incredibly precious for both of them, lifting the lid on their family dynamic. They feel incredibly protective of both their child and their family. They simply want to be able to enjoy themselves without the interference of too many others.

They continued, “They’re not thinking too far ahead, and their immediate family will be allowed inside their baby bubble.”

Mark and Michelle’s countdown to Palma’s arrival was unfortunately marred by a terrifying burglary, which left the couple “shaken”. The parents-to-be reportedly locked themselves in their bedroom when their £3.5million Essex mansion was targeted by masked raiders in February.

Before their lavish pad’s alarm system went off, the Brassic star radio host is said to have heard their porch window smash. When four balaclava-clad suspects nearly entered the property, it is thought that Michelle and Mark were inside. When Mark yelled, authorities heard it through the couple’s security system, which advised the raiders to leave the scene in a getaway car. Thankfully, the couple was “very shaken up,” despite the terrifying ordeal, which no one else was aware of.

Happily, they can now concentrate on enjoying their bundle of joy, which Mark, the son of the new dad, described as the “best feeling ever,”.

On their Heart FM radio interview, he mentioned fatherhood while mentioning Olly Murs, a pal of his, on the show: “It’s the biggest accomplishment of my life, but obviously hats go off to my wife, who is a superhero for bringing this baby into the world.

He continued, “It makes you realize what our mothers did for us and what women had to go through,” and he expressed his gratitude for all mothers.

A heartfelt black and white photo of Palma featuring a peek at the baby’s crocheted bonnet was posted on Instagram by Michelle. Michelle gushed, “Together we have a new love – our little girl – to share,” as the baby girl’s tiny hand is being lovingly held by her parents.

Being a father was “the best feeling ever,” Mark said to Olly, who welcomed his own daughter Maddison with wife Amelia last year. Every morning, I’m so excited to see her face that I get up.

Stephen Graham’s dyslexia with wife playing secret supportive role

Due to his struggle with dyslexia, Stephen Graham’s wife has a significant impact on his career. Netflix’s most recent drama, Adolescence, stars Stephen as the father of a 13-year-old boy named Jamie who is accused of murder. The Boiling Point star is seen on television.

His numerous roles received praise from fans as well. The actor has helped his wife with the script reading, despite receiving numerous BAFTA nominations over the years. Hannah Walters, an actress and producer, and Stephen and his wife Hannah haven’t spoken on a rant since they first met in drama school.

Hannah, who has been married to the actor since 2008, has stayed with her husband throughout his career and even examines scripts that have been given to him to aid in his decision-making. On a panel at the BAFTAs, he said, “I struggle because I’m dyslexic.” My girlfriend actually reads the script and decides whether or not I’m acting. She made some wise judgments.

“I have to read it, read it, read it, and then make it appear as though it’s my first time saying it.” He previously discussed how to prepare for roles while dealing with dyslexia.

He said, “I read the entire script and we can talk about it and I find my way into my character and what’s happening along the way,” in an interview with Act on This. It’s a skill that Hannah and I have developed; we both know how to do it.

I break it down into manageable chunks so I know what I’m shooting on what day. It’s not beneficial to have it all in your head if you have a few memorable days off. Although it’s good to have it somewhere, I’ll have to go back to my hotel room after we finish our work to study those lines the next day, so when I arrive the following day, I’ll be ready.

I respect each actor’s unique style, and I respect each. It would be best for me to do the work if I had to give any actor any advice because it requires doing the work to make it appear as though you don’t do it.

The 13-year-old boy accused of murder is the father of in Stephen’s film Adolescence, which has received positive reviews so far. According to Stephen, the gritty drama was created as a response to the rising knife crime rate among teenagers in the UK. The actor previously stated that he typically adopts the method acting model, which requires actors to remain in their roles throughout the production and between scenes, which is challenging for dark dramas like Adolescence.

However, Stephen frequently applauded Hannah’s continued support during challenging circumstances and was nominated for a BAFTA for his role in 2021’s Boiling Point. He claims to have been Hannah’s biggest fan ever since. I remember watching Hannah in drama class back in the day and always thought she was brilliant, Hannah said Stephen.

Israel strikes Gaza, breaking ceasefire: Live tracker

At least 404 people, many of whom were children, were killed and a large number of others were injured when Israeli warplanes launched a massive assault across the Gaza Strip early on Tuesday morning.

As more people continue to reside beneath the rubble of bombed buildings, the death toll is likely to rise.

The fragile two-month-old ceasefire with Hamas, which started on January 19, has been broken by Israel’s attacks.

Israeli attacks targeted Jabalia, Beit Hanoon, Gaza City, Nuseirat, Deir el-Balah, Khan Younis, and Rafah in various locations throughout the Gaza Strip, from north to south. The al-Mawasi zones, among others, were attacked as well as other areas that had been designated as safe humanitarian zones.

Israeli forces issue a forced displacement order

Residents of the following areas were told to “evacuate immediately,” according to the Israeli military’s Arabic-language spokesman Avichay Adraee in a statement on X: “Your neighbourhoods will become dangerous combat zones.

  • Beit Hanoon
  • Khirbet Khuza’a
  • Abasan al-Kabira
  • Abbassan al-Jadida

Adraee advised people in these areas to seek shelter in Khan Younis or western Gaza City.

INTERACTIVE-Israel orders new evacuations -GAZA-March 18, 2025-1742293371

During the “peacefire,” Israel killed more than 170 people.

A three-phase ceasefire agreement reached between Israel and Hamas on January 15 put an end to the Gaza-ravaged country’s more than 460 days of fighting.

A ceasefire was included in the deal, which became effective on January 19 and gave Palestinians the option to flee their homes in exchange for the release of thousands of Palestinian prisoners held by Israel.

However, Israel repeatedly violated the ceasefire in Gaza between January 19 and March 17, causing almost three deaths per day.

More than 350 violations by Israel have been documented by Gaza authorities, including military incursions, gunfire, air raids, increased surveillance, and aid obstructing.

Stopping humanitarian assistance

The attacks added to Gaza’s growing humanitarian crisis.

After the first phase of the ceasefire expired, Israel halted all humanitarian aid entering Gaza on March 2. This resulted in food, medicine, and fuel being cut off.

The blockade caused apprehensions across the globe, with European nations warning that it might violate international humanitarian law. Aid trucks were stranded outside of Gaza, increasing the risk of hunger and malnutrition, which worsened humanitarian conditions.

The most recent attacks occur during Ramadan, a Muslim holy month.

Gaza

More than 60, 000 killed, 112, 000 wounded

According to the Gaza-based Ministry of Health, there are at least 48, 577 Palestinians confirmed dead and 112 wounded in Israel’s ongoing conflict there. In Gaza, one in every 50 people have been killed and one in every 20 have been hurt, according to this figure.

More than 61,700 people died as a result of the government media office’s update on February 3, noting that thousands of Palestinians who had vanished under the rubble were now believed to be dead.

On October 7, 2023, a Hamas-led attack on southern Israel left 139 people dead and more than 200 were taken prisoner.

Coronation Street’s Jack P Shepherd issues blunt two-word response to NTA calls

Jack P. Shepherd, who starred in the recent film adaptation of David Platt, has refuted suggestions that he should win the National Television Award. A listener said his portrayal of David, who was recently hit by a car and hospitalized, merited praise on his podcast, On the Sofa, which he co-hosts with fellow Corrie actors Ben Price and Colson Smith.

According to the plot, David appeared to be planning to run over gangster Harvey Gaskell after discovering himself in debt to him. This sparked rumors that Jack might be a contender for an award at the upcoming National Television Awards.

However, Jack, who has played David since 2000, refrained from suggesting otherwise. Are you aware of why? Because it has been in March and the NTAs have been “when”? Jack retorted, “Forget it, Colson,” as Colson responded, “September.” To win, you must essentially do something the week before.

Colson continued, “You essentially need to die to win.”

According to Leicestershire Live, Jack remained skeptical about his chances of winning an award despite receiving more encouragement from listeners.

As he nears a remarkable 25 years, Jack has been hinting about his place on the soap. He admitted to the Manchester Evening News that his first performance was intended to be a short-term one, telling the paper: “I was only in the show for three months before they rang my mother up and my agent to say “Yes, we’ll extend it.”

He went on to say that 25 years is a long time for someone, but I currently have annual contracts and don’t have any for three-month contracts.

He also mentioned that, “I’m only here for a year, and it’s over this year!” They might stop it, they might choose to pursue someone else, I don’t know. But I’m still having fun.”

On Coronation Street (ITV), a car struck David Platt.

When Jack appeared to suggest he might be leaving during a chit-chat on This Morning last week, fans were left biting their nails. When he questioned whether he would continue to work on the soap, he said, “I believe it will be 25 years later next month. Although it would have been nice to sort of reach that milestone, I’ve always enjoyed every minute, but sadly tonight is the last.

However, he admitted to being “a little devious” during a surprising twist during the live broadcast of On the Sofa. When asked about his antics, he said, “Who knows, who knows? Will David die, won’t David die blah blah blah blah blah blah,” but I thought that was a bit s***. I merely figured I would say “yes”.”

When Jack finished, he admitted that the people working in the background didn’t notice what he was doing and that it caused the green room to laugh.
