Mark Wright celebrates moving in to his and Michelle Keegan’s ‘£3.5M dream home’ with a takeaway

Mark Wright confirmed that he and wife Michelle Keegan have finally moved into their new mansion in Essex, three years after purchasing the mega pad.

And at the christening of the new base, the couple ordered their first takeaway in the house on Saturday night – feasting on a range of pizzas.

On Instagram, the 35-year-old TV personality documented the moment as he filmed the mouth-watering selection of food, writing to his 1.8 million followers: “Somebody said cheat day?”

The former TOWIE star posted in his Stories when the food arrived from Slice Sourdough Pizza in Essex and filmed the delivery man at the door.

Explanation: ‘Look, the first pizza delivered to the new house. Jimbo, Jamesy of Slice. Wait until you see these pizzas, let’s go.’

And as he prepared to enjoy the impressive spread, Mark laid the five pizzas on his marble counter to show the fans.

He and Michelle bought the lavish home in October 2019 for £1.3 million and have documented the renovation process via Instagram.

Due to various lockdowns and Covid-19 restrictions, construction is stop-start after they demolished a farm and started construction of a five bedroom townhouse complete with bar, gym, granny outbuilding and outdoor pool.

Construction experts estimate that demolishing and rebuilding the house will cost around £3.5 million.

The couple won planning permission for the colossal construction project in January 2020 – and it took more than two years for the couple to move in this month.

And it’s no surprise that they chose a takeaway to celebrate, as Mark recently admitted that he and Michelle hit the gym so often because they “love takeaway.”

‘She [Michelle] likes a chinese takeaway and a curry. We both have very balanced lives and we both work hard in the gym and stay healthy,” he told The Sun.

Continued: “I try to be as healthy as possible and live a balanced life. But if you want to grab a takeaway or eat some junk food on the weekend, do it because you need that balance in your life.”

Mark enjoyed the weekend in the new crib and also went to his giant yard on Sunday to mow the lawn – jokingly “How my Sundays have changed #35” while sharing a shirtless photo from the yard.

The opulent property features five bedrooms, each with en-suite facilities and three with dressing rooms.

While a sauna and private gym also grace the path, which is armed with top-notch surrounding security.
