Michelle Keegan gets weirdly close to presenter on live TV
The 29-year-old, who is married to The Only Way Is Essex star Mark Wright, appeared to get a little too friendly with the ITV breakfast show’s entertainment editor Richard Arnold.
Manchester-born Michelle was seen stroking the 46-year-old’s bare feet during an interview on board a yacht.
She gently ran her fingers over his ankle as she held up his shoeless foot as GMB presenters Ben Shephard and Kate Garraway could only look on in bemusement.
As Richard wrapped up the interview, it was revealed that he had foregone his footwear to the nation and lifted up a his leg to show the camera.
"Oh wow, your feet look great," Michelle joked, before adding: "Just look at them! Such a nice shape too."
Michelle started caressing his leg and she giggled, while back in the studio Kate, 49, was heard shouting: "Don't stroke them for heaven's sake Michelle!”
Don’t get too close, Michelle! They're more like hooves!
While Ben, 41, jokingly added: “Don’t get too close, Michelle! They're more like hooves!"
The duo were on a boat because Michelle was opening the Southampton Boat Show, which kicks off today.
She was on GMB to talk about her new series Our Girl, which went down a storm with fans when it recently returned to screens.
Reflecting on whether she wanted to take on Hollywood, Michelle said: "I don't think I'd move out there but if a job came along, I'd jump at the chance. You've got to go where the work is."
In a recent interview with Express.co.uk, the star revealed that she did not get homesick while filming Our Girl on location in South Africa.
She explained: “We were there for two months and I thought I'd get homesick, but I loved every single second of it."
Michelle added: “There's Skype. And FaceTime, which I use all the time. Mark came over, as did my mum and my brother. I was in contact the whole time I was there. So it wasn't that bad."
Good Morning Britain airs weekdays on ITV at 6am.
