Mark Wright serves up McPlant burgers to his builders from his own McDonald's van

Mark Wright dished out vegan McDonalds burgers from his own private burger van to the builders working on his £1.3million mansion.

The former TOWIE star chowed down on the fast food chain's new McPlant burger before sharing the love with the team working on his Essex home.

He added in a post on his feed: "Lovely little surprise for the lads on Friday afternoon.

"Buzzing to have the @McDonaldsUK McPlant van here on site to reward the boys for a hard day’s graft.

"Genuinely can’t believe this burger is actually vegan - tastes just like the Maccie’s we all know and love.

"It’s been co-developed with @BeyondMeatEU and is now available EVERYWHERE so get yourself down to Maccy’s and try it!! #AD"

The workmen formed a queue outside the front of the McPlant van to get their mitts on the new meat-free meal.

"Look at them all coming out now! That's how you treat the boys, Friday afternoon, bit of lunch."

Mark, who turned 35 yesterday shared a video from inside the van and took a bite adding: "That's my third one."

The TV star's dad joined the throng of hi-vis wearing workers, adding: "Even the old man's turned up."

Famous pals flocked to wish Mark, who turned 35 yesterday, a happy birthday.

He celebrated by unveiling the newest addition to the property - a bar.

The presenter downed a pint of Heineken from his very own beer tap as workmen watched on in envy.

Sharing the proud moment with his 1.8million followers he said: "It's the first pint ever to be poured in the bar.

"All the builders usually finish at 3.30. It's 3.36pm - just turn the camera around."

He then poured out the bar's first lager of many in front of them saying: "This is how you pour a pint. Happy f**ing birthday."

Mark added later: "And to make it even better, I forgot, the day that the bar got up and running is on my birthday so there you go.

"What a way to spend my birthday, a pint in my new bar in my new house. Haven't quite finished yet but we're getting there."

Mark and his wife Michelle Keegan have been working on building the house of their dreams and sharing the process with fans online.

The couple shared computer-generated images of what they hope the property will look like when completed.

Each of the property's give bedrooms come with their own en-suite and three of them have dressing rooms.
