But Michelle Keegan shared a glimpse of her maternal side as she cradled her cousin Katie’s newborn son, Brody, in an adorable Instagram snap posted on Tuesday.
The actress, 33, filled her social media with heart-warming pictures of the baby last week, leaving Mark’s dad Mark Snr begging the couple to make him a grandfather.
So sweet: Michelle Keegan shared a glimpse of her maternal side as she cradled her cousin Katie’s newborn son, Brody, in an adorable Instagram snap posted on Tuesday
The Brassic star posed with her cousin’s baby nestled in a cream blanket in her arms while sucking on a bottle of milk.
Michelle tucked her brunette tresses away in a neat bun and displayed her stunning features with minimal make-up.
The former Coronation Street star declared that she ‘nailed’ the milk bottle feeding session, and called Brody, ‘Mr Perfect,’ as she uploaded another delightful video of him resting.
Last month, Michelle’s TV presenter husband Mark, 33, uploaded his own images holding the baby, and his father was quick to lead the comments with suggestions of grandchildren.

Mark had captioned the photo: ‘The day I met Brody. New member to the clan. Gorgeous little boy. @katiefearnehoughx & Tony he is beautiful !! love him already.’
He added on a separate snap: ‘Another one (wont be the last) just because I cannot cope with this little man….

Michelle, who also posted a sweet snap cuddling Brody, penned: ‘B R O D Y A L L E N … you’re so loved.’
The actress recently revealed her ‘frustration’ at people constantly questioning why she and Mark don’t have children, insisting ‘nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors’.
The actress, who has been married to the TOWIE star turned TV presenter, for five years, hit out at sexist double standards – admitting queries about when she is going to have a baby do ‘bother’ her now.

In an interview with the August issue of Cosmopolitan magazine, she said: ‘A few years ago it didn’t bother me and I answered the question, but now I think, “I don’t need to answer that because nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors”.
‘I remember when I finished Our Girl people were like, “Is it because you’re going off to have a baby?”
‘I know for a fact if Mark finished a job, nobody would ask him if he was going to have a baby. It’s not fair. It does make me feel frustrated.’
Michelle and husband Mark have been together since late 2012 when they met while they were both on holiday in Dubai.
The former TOWIE star popped the question nine months later and the pair married in a lavish ceremony at Hengrave Hall in Suffolk in May 2015.
