They've been married for just over two years but Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright have spent most of that time apart as they pursue their individual careers.

Thanks to her role in Our Girl, actress Michelle has had a couple of stints living and working in South Africa as she films the BBC hit show, but now it's Mark's time to venture further afield.

The DJ and former TOWIE star has finally begun his new role as a presenter on the LA based entertainment show Extra, and while there's been speculation about how this celeb couple will make their marriage work, Michelle was keen to prove her support for her hubby.
