Michelle Keegan has revealed she is desperately missing her husband Mark Wright as she continues working overseas. The actress, who is filming the next series of Our Girl in South Africa, admitted that her homesickness is taking its toll on her. During a recent Facebook Live with Revlon, the 30-year-old shared: "The hardest part is probably not seeing my family and friends for the time that I'm away filming. Although we FaceTime all the time, I'm in a lucky position I know that, but you miss home a little bit."

Being away from her loved ones can be hard, but Michelle confessed she longs for a relaxed Sunday with her partner. "I haven't had one of those for a while," she added. "I'll be honest: my favourite thing to do is get up in the morning, have a shower, get back in clean pyjamas, fresh ones, go downstairs with my dogs and just have a DVD day and watch films all day and order takeaway. I'm not very rock and roll, am I?"
