Carol Wright Says She 'Holds Back' Around Michelle Keegan on Family Podcast

The former TOWIE star rejected the 'evil mother‑in‑law' label, emphasizing she would only step in to avert an unhappy marriage.

Overview

  • Speaking on the Wright at Home podcast, Wright said she deliberately keeps her distance so she does not feel overpowering to her daughter‑in‑law.
  • Her comments followed a listener’s letter about feeling treated like she had “stolen” her partner, which Jess Wright read to prompt the discussion.
  • Wright said a parent should intervene “a little bit” if they believe a marriage would not last because they want their child to be happy.
  • She has previously praised Michelle Keegan as “the perfect partner” for her son Mark Wright.
  • Coverage notes Keegan became a first‑time mother earlier this year to daughter Palma, with the family recently marking their first Christmas together.
