There have been multiple reports that Michelle Keegan and her former TOWIE star husband, Mark Wright, have clashed over his wish to start a family, and the actress wanting to wait.
But insiders say Michelle, 29, is on an all-out mission to fix their relationship and has now done a U-turn on their baby plans.
A source says: "After saying that now wasn't the time, Michelle has made a baby pact with Mark and told him to give her a 12-month window.
"She feels this will be enough time to get used to the baby idea. But she has asked him to consider moving to Manchester so she has all the security of her friends and family close by when she's pregnant."
In July, Closer reported that Michelle was growing tired of how Mark was becoming increasingly reliant on his family but Michelle is trying to do all she can to get close to her in-laws.
A source says: "Mark has always wanted Michelle to make an effort, and she knows how tight-knit his family are. But she's realised that if they do have a baby, having your family around is what counts."
