Mark Wright speaks out after Michelle Keegan's fury over baby trolls on photo

Mark Wright refused to fuel the trolls who who left intrusive comments on a picture of himself and wife Michelle Keegan with their tiny premature nephew.

The TOWIE legend and the actress were said to be upset at the needless remarks after they introduced their latest family member.

Dustin Wright, who was born 12 weeks early, was happily asleep in Michelle's arms as she and Mark beamed for the camera last week.

But some people couldn't resist using the opportunity to grill the couple about their own baby plans.

The jibes from online social media users on the Instagram reportedly left Michelle "furious" and "incredibly angry" at the hurtful words.

I nvasive comments told the couple it was "about time" they had their own offspring.

One person's comment wrote: "Suits you both BUT WHEN are you gonna have your own".

Another said: "Come on you two, pull your fingers out. It's time now."

Mark spoke to Express.co.uk about Dustin but was more interested in talking about how incredible the "little premature warrior" is.

The tot is the second child of his brother Josh and wife Hollie.

“It was amazing to meet him for the first time," he said.

“We’ve been waiting for that for a long time, so it was a very lovely feeling to meet him, for sure. We love our nephews, it’s amazing,”

Mark may not have wanted to wade in but their couple's fans didn't let the jabs slide.

One replied: “Why do people think they have the right to question a couple about when they are going to have their own kids? Not your business.”

Another put: “I could have put money on the “when are you having one?" Questions. There are millions of reasons why people might not have children including that they don't want them xx.”

Mark and Michelle tied the knot in 2015, but have so far not chosen to have children.

Whilst the pair remain tight lipped about whether they will choose to have a family or not, comments about their plans have angered Brassic actress Michelle.

A source told New! Magazine: "Michelle was really down after all the comments. It made her feel incredibly angry at all those anonymous people -who know nothing about her or what's going on in her life - being so bolshy and plain inappropriate.

"As far as she and Mark are concerned, their baby plans are private and have nothing to do with the public. No one knows what's going on behind closed doors and it infuriates her that people are so unaware of that.

"She refuses to be pressured , and while she is longing to start a family , she wants to take things strictly on her terms."
