Michelle Keegan has been thrust back into the spotlight this week thanks to the release of her latest project. The Stockport-born star can currently be seen in Netflix's latest thriller, Fool Me Once the latest adaptation of one of bestselling author Harlan Coben's books.
Michelle announced in February last year that she would be taking on the lead role of ex-army captain Maya Stern, who is trying to come to terms with the brutal murder of her husband Joe, played by Obsession's Richard Armitage when she sees an unthinkable image captured on her nanny cam.
She then went on to spend months filming the series across Manchester and Cheshire before its much-anticipated release on New Year's Day which quickly became one of the most-watched shows on the streaming platform in the UK and has led to Michelle receiving plenty of praise for her performance in the 'binge-worthy' drama.
