Michelle Keegan was spotted enjoying a weekend with her six-month-old daughter Palma after a busy week filming her new ITV drama. The 38-year-old actress kept a low profile in sunglasses, stepping out in a white T-shirt and green loose-fitting trousers as she headed through Hertfordshire with Palma.
She was photographed stepping out of a large black four-by-four and placing Palma into a black iCandy pushchair, with the baby tucked in a pink blanket. The pushchair is typically priced upwards of £1,500, underscoring the level of preparation for the star's family on location. Keegan wore a casual, understated look for the outing, continuing to balance motherhood with a demanding schedule on set.
Keegan has spent the week filming The Blame opposite Douglas Booth in Hertfordshire, resuming scenes from earlier in the week. The ITV drama is based on the debut novel of the same name by Charlotte Langley and centers around the discovery of the body of a teenage figure skater, sending shockwaves through the town of Wakestead. The official synopsis describes a story that dives into secrets, suspicion and systemic corruption beneath the surface of a seemingly quiet community. Keegan plays Detective Inspector Crane, while Booth portrays DI Radley as the investigation unfolds.
The cast also includes Nigel Boyle as forensic technician Brett Shergill and Joe Armstrong, known for Robin Hood and Fool Me Once, as ice-skating coach Kyle Fraiser. The series marks a high-profile return to screens for Keegan after maternity leave, with filming captured amid Hertfordshire streets and town centers.
Since becoming a mother to Palma in March, Keegan has balanced life with high-profile work, red-carpet appearances and a major new deal with Sky. Reports indicate the six-figure advertising contract will see her become the new face of the media company, with promotional clips planned alongside Idris Elba, who already features in Sky’s campaigns. The development nods to Keegan’s sustained profile in British television and fashion, even as she navigates motherhood and acting commitments. The broader context notes that Brassic is ending after its seventh series, and Keegan is eager to continue a relationship with Sky through future projects.
Michelle Keegan rose to fame as Tina McIntyre on Coronation Street in 2007. Since then, she has balanced a diverse acting portfolio with a growing media presence, including commercials and promotional work tied to Sky. The Blame represents a further step in her TV lineup, pairing her with Booth in a drama that promises to explore complex themes of trust and power in a tight-knit community.
