has paid tribute to his wife as she debuted in a new BBC One drama.
The former star showered the Our Girl actress with praise on Sunday in a sweet Instagram post, ahead of .
Mark, 36, shared a snap of him and Michelle, 35, from their vacation in Sydney last summer, along with a message of support for his wife’s latest endeavour.
In the snap, the stylish couple cut a casual fit for the sunset stroll at the beach. Mark sported a grey hoodie while Michelle looked effortlessly chic and sun-kissed in a black puffer coat and matching black shades.
He penned: ‘Here we are, back in July 2022 in Sydney Australia, where this incredibly, talented, hardworking special little wife of mine spent 5 months last year working her but off, filming her new show Ten Pound Poms!!’
He added: ‘Tonight we finally get to see it on our screens and I’m so bloody excited and proud. 9pm tonight @bbcone.’
Fans flooded the comments with excitement about the actress’ new show, especially as many viewers have relatives that made the move from the UK to start a new life in sunny Australia in the 1950s.
‘Really been looking forward to watching this! My Dad’s brother was a ten pound pom! He’s now 88 years old, left the UK in the late 60s I think and never looked back,’ one said.
‘Can’t wait to watch! Such a brilliant actress and what a gorgeous couple you both are.’
Michelle responded with a string of love hearts, as other fans echoed Mark’s praise as they watched the series on BBC iPlayer, as all six episodes are already available to stream.
‘I watched it, it was great and Michelle smashed it,’ one wrote, as another agreed: ‘It’s great. I’m watching it on BBC iPlayer I’m on episode 5 – very talented actress.’
The loved-up couple always support each other’s achievements, as Michelle was there to congratulate her husband when he last month.
Ten Pound Poms airs on BBC One on Sunday at 9pm.
