Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright cosied up on the National Television Awards red carpet, days after the actress addressed speculation about their marriage.

The Our Girl actress posed in a stunning white dress as the pair arrived at London’s O2 Arena on Tuesday evening.

Keegan, who’s appearance comes hours after the BBC confirmed the return of the military drama , wore a minidress with puff sleeves while her husband looked sharp in a suit.

Our Girl is up for best drama at the star-studded ceremony, battling it out against Doctor Who, Call The Midwife, Peaky Blinders and Casualty.

Their red carpet display comes just days after Keegan hit out at rumours about her marriage to Wright, who she wed in 2015.

Keegan slammed reports of a “rift” between the two, who spend time apart while Wright is presenting for Extra in Los Angeles.

The actress told Daily Star Sunday’s TV Life magazine: “No one knows how much we see each other because we don't publicise it. People say, 'Ah, they haven't seen each other for ages,' but they don't know.

"Mark sometimes comes home for a weekend and no one know he's even there. Over the years we've learned how to do that.

“My marriage is my business. It's private and I don't care if someone thinks it's bad and that we've got different careers. Yeah we have, and I'm proud of that.”
