Michelle Keegan looked the epitome of style when she stepped out for a walk for the first time on Thursday with her husband Mark Wright and their newborn baby Palma.
The actress, 37, and TOWIE star, 38, announced the birth of their first child earlier this month and have been enjoying the first few weeks of being parents.
But what caught the eye of some eagle-eyed fans was the ‘Ferrari of prams’ that their daughter was being pushed around in.
Michelle and Mark forked out £1,249 for the iCandy Peach 7 Coco pushchair in a classic chocolate brown colour.
The fashionable pram is a favourite among celebrities, with other previous owners including the likes of Molly-Mae Hague, Zara Tindall, Megahan Markle and the Beckhams.
The company’s ‘luxury’ prams and buggies – which cost up to £1,500 – have proved popular because they are easy to fold up and carry.

Other celebrities that have used i iCandy’s prams include Abbey Clancy and Peter Crouch, Kim and Andy Murray, and Sir Richard Branson.
The company’s website boasts that its engineering rivals ‘a plane, not a pushchair’ and says its designs have a ‘luxury, modern’ look.
Described as ‘the ultimate pushchair for first time parents’ it is described as ‘the world’s definitive, luxury single to double pushchair beautifully engineered, designed to fit perfectly around you and your baby’.
It’s also ‘suitable from birth due to the spacious carrycot which can also be used for permanent overnight sleeping’.
This week the proud new parents made the most of the good weather as they took the tot out in her pram for a stroll with Palma’s grandma, Michelle’s mum Jacqueline.
In their first family sighting since Palma’s birth, first-time mother Michelle was glowing as she stepped out in a stylish knitted cardigan, featuring balloon sleeves.
She layered it over a white T-shirt and pair the look with smart black trousers and beige trainers.
The brunette beauty swept her long hair back into a ponytail and accessorised with circular sunglasses and dainty hoop earrings.
She seemed to be in high spirits and could barely wipe the smile from her face as Mark sweetly wrapped his arm around her.
There are a lot of matching optional extras parents can purchase along with the pram

Mark and Michelle built a designer granny flat at their £3.5million mansion, meaning the couple’s parents can stay and help out whenever they like with their own space.
The 60 sq ft annexe – which is bigger than the average London flat – is used by family members when they come to visit their dream home.
Mark has described fatherhood as the ‘biggest achievement’ of his life since welcoming baby Palma into the world with Michelle on March 6.
Chatting with his best friend and fellow dad Olly Murs on his Heart Breakfast show, Mark recalled the moment he first held his newborn daughter in his arms.
Mark fought back emotions as he said: ‘Mate, it’s actually hard to put into words.
‘It’s the biggest achievement of my life its all I think about but obviously hats go off to my wife she is an absolute super human, a superhero for bringing this baby into the world.’
Sharing his appreciation for Michelle, he added: ‘It makes you realise what our mums did for us and makes me have so much more respect than I already had and what women had to go through.
‘It’s the best feeling in the world. I wake up every morning just so excited to see her face.’
Recalling the first moment he held Palma, he continued: ‘That moment when I held her in my arms, it gets me emotional now thinking about it.

‘I suppose everything else goes out the window and its made me realise what life is all about and my little baby Palma I love you so much and I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you.
‘It’s a very special feeling. I cant really put it into words. We’ve waited a little bit of time, we’ve chased our dreams and our careers and now we’re here. We’ve got a baby.’
It’s believed the couple chose the name Palma because of their strong links to Mallorca, their go-to holiday destination and the setting for their pregnancy reveal photo shoot.
Michelle married Mark in May 2015 and the couple live together in an Essex mansion they built from scratch.
