Michelle Keegan attends Truckfest before launching new fashion awards


May 6, 2014

It looks like Michelle Keegan could have decided on her next job following her exit from Coronation Street, after being spotted behind the wheel of a truck at Truckfest on Monday.

The annual event in Peterborough was also attended by former The Only Way Is Essex star Joey Essex, but it was Michelle who drew the crowds, looking gorgeous in casual jeans with a leather jacket and summery white sandals.

Later that night the HELLO! Online blogger partied in Essex with fiancé Mark Wright and friends, tweeting a snap of the group on social media.

"Great night tonight in @FacesEssex," Michelle tweeted.

But she was up and bright and early on Tuesday for an appearance on ITV’s Lorraine Live, helping to promote the Lorraine High Street Fashion Awards 2014.

Michelle was recently shortlisted for Sexiest Female at The British Soap Awards 2014, going up against her former co-star Georgia May Foote (Katy Armstrong).

Jacqueline Jossa, who plays Lauren Branning in EastEnders, plus Hollyoaks stars Jennifer Metcalfe (Mercedes McQueen) and Jorgie Porter (Theresa McQueen) will be fighting it out to win the coveted prize too.

The 16th annual awards will take place for the first time at London’s iconic Hackney Empire theatre and will honour the nation’s best-loved TV shows, as well as actors and actresses in this year’s most talked about storylines.

Michelle Keegan marked her Coronation Street exit with a fancy dress party, celebrating leaving the ITV soap after six-and-a-half, by hosting a 'chav'- themed party at the Black Dog Ballroom in Manchester. Dressed as her Corrie character Tina McIntyre, Michelle was joined by her fiancé Mark Wright as well as her co-stars Lucy-Jo Hudson, Alan Halsall, Jack P Shepherd and Sacha Parkinson.

Michelle is set to marry television personality Mark Wright later this year and it looks like Michelle is making headway with her wedding planning, after recently asking her future sister-in-law Jessica Wright to be one of her bridesmaids.
