They have been flooded with kind words from well-wishers across the country after the birth of their baby daughter this week.
But Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright, aged 37 and 38 respectively, received a slightly cheekier remark from ITV‘s Lorraine Kelly, as she paid tribute to the new parents.
Discussing the couple’s decision to name their girl Palma, Lorraine’s mind immediately wandered to where the baby might have been conceived.
The TV personality, 65, told her show: ‘Huge congratulations to Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright who have announced the birth of their baby daughter – that is such a lovely picture.
‘They’ve called her Palma. Now, Palma is believed to be inspired by their love for the Spanish island of Mallorca, Palma of course being the capital.
‘Maybe that might have been where she was conceived, who knows. If so, fabulous.’

Mark and Michelle announced the exciting news with an Instagram post on Wednesday as the new mother shared a first look at the newborn and revealed her unusual name.
Michelle captioned the post: ‘Together we have a new love to share… Our little girl. Palma Elizabeth Wright 06.03.25’.
The Wright Family and Michelle have long been lovers of Mallorca, sharing snaps from every trip to the idyllic location including a shoot for their pregnancy announcement – ahead of the birth of baby Palma Elizabeth Wright earlier this week.
So enamoured are the clan with the island, that Mark’s brother Josh and sister Jessica both wed in Mallorca, while the family’s frequent visits have now led to the huge nod to Palma – the major city and seaport located in the southwest of Mallorca.
Michelle has previously hinted at the couple’s desire to own a home in the area, while their trips are forensically documented on social media.
Lorraine’s comments on the pair’s good news come after she gave fans an update on her swollen face.
