When movie makers want to ensure that their films offer a sense of gripping excitement, they often introduce a deadline into the narrative. This must happen before the clock has finished ticking or dreadful things will ensue. That's all well and good when we wish to be entertained but we are never wise to see events and situations in our own life as quite so urgent. Ask yourself today, what can wait until tomorrow - or the day after - or perhaps even next year? Your honest answer could make life easier for everyone.

Michelle Keegan at the 2015 Brit Awards

Michelle Keegan is one of HELLO! Online's most successful bloggers, sharing her style and beauty tips with her loyal readers. However it was at her first job, working in the department store Selfridges, where Michelle love of fashion was sparked.

As a youngster she also attended Manchester's School of Acting, and soon began auditioning for roles. In 2008, after her second ever audition, Michelle won the role of Tina McIntyre in the long-running ITV soap Coronation Street.

Tina went on to become an integral character for the soap, and was central to many storylines including surrogacy and perjury. A fan favourite, Michelle won the 2008 Best Newcomer Award at the British Soap Award, and between 2009 and 2014 Michelle won the Sexiest Female Award at the same awards ceremony every year.

Then in 2013, the actress announced that she would leave the soap after six years. Her character began an affair with a married man; this storyline would be the beginning of the end for Tina. In January 2014 it was revealed that Tina would be murdered, and the run-up to the storyline led to the Who Killed Tina? hashtag trending across social media.

Cupid's arror struck the gorgeous actress at the end of 2012, when she met The Only Way Is Essex star Mark Wright at a New Year's Eve party in Dubai.

The pair fell deeply in love, and got engaged in 2013. Their highly anticipated wedding took place on 24 May, and the pair revealed their wedding photos exclusively in HELLO! magazine, announcing: "It was the day our dreams came true."

"She looked so amazing. Her wedding dress was just perfect," the groom told HELLO! "Seeing Mark looking back at me as I walked down the aisle was the best feeling ever," the new Mrs Wright added.

Michelle chose an exquisite bespoke ivory wedding gown by Galia Lahav at Browns Bride, adorned with French lace and Swarovski crystals, and which featured a cascading silk tulle fishtail and a plunging lace-trimmed deep-V back. She then changed into a Fifties-style dress for the reception, where the pair performed a Dirty Dancing-inspired routine.
