The Corrie star, who has moved to Essex with fiancé Mark Wright, thought she had her upcoming wedding planned to a tee- but her mum had other ideas.
During her recent family visit to her home town, the 27-year-old revealed her mum had organised a pre-hen do with her nearest and dearest.
"I had a big surprise when I was back in Manchester", she told the Daily Star.
"My mum organised a surprise pre-hen party at the Double Tree Hilton which is near Piccadilly station a really lovely hotel."
"My friend Beckie picked me up and made out we weren't doing anything special, and as I walked into the room all my aunties, cousins and friends shouted 'surprise!' – I was in complete shock!"
Besides having her Suffolk wedding to plan, and a new Lipsy collection under her belt, the actress has also bagged a role in British drama 'Strangeways He We Come.
Speaking about her new acting role, she said: "I play a character called Demi, who is totally different to the characters I've played before, she has many insecurities as a young girl on the Salford estate she's from."
Looks like she's got it all! Hands up who wants to swap with Michelle?
