Michelle Keegan has spoken candidly about the exhausting reality of returning to work after becoming a mother
The actress, who shares daughter Palma with Mark Wright, said filming ITV crime drama *The Blame* involved long days, learning lines and caring for her baby overnight
Although she praised Wright and both families for their support, Keegan admitted the demands had left her drained
She recently stepped away from another ITV drama before filming began, choosing to prioritise family life while continuing her acting career.
