She is often seen out and about in her gym wear, but with a wedding on the cards, Michelle Keegan has an extra reason to work out.

The 27-year-old actress – who is engaged to former TOWIE star Mark Wright – was recently seen showing of her trim figure in all its glory as she left a gym in Essex.

Sporting a vibrant orange vest top with an eye catching pair of stripy cropped leggings, the brunette beauty was certainly hard to miss while making her way back to her car.

The couple got engaged during a romantic holiday in Dubai after a nine-month romance and are planning to tie the knot in the upcoming months.

Michelle and Mark flew out to the United Arab Emirates city to ring in the New Year in style, and certainly celebrated the start of 2015 with a bang, sharing loved-up pictures on their social media accounts from their vacation too.

Dubai is also the location they met two years ago, in December 2012, so it was a fitting destination for their festive getaway.
