MICHELLE Keegan has shared an adorable tribute to her baby daughter after their first family holiday with her husband Mark Wright.
The proud mum-of-one, who welcomed little Palma to the world in March, showcased a gold necklace adorned with three letter P pendants.
It sat just underneath a gold chain emblazoned with Palma’s name in diamante detail, which Michelle, 37, first showcased in a sweet Mother’s Day post.
Now the former Coronation Street actress has opened up on the specific meaning of her jewellery in a post on her Instagram Stories.
Capturing a snap of the accessories gleaming in the sunshine from the little family’s first vacation, she wrote: “For my three girls. Palma, Pheobe and Pip.”
She accompanied the text with a trio of heart-shaped Emoji icons.
Michelle’s pets, dachshund Phoebe and chihuahua Pip, often feature on her social media pages.
She previously admitted she would have only dated Mark, 38, if he got on with her pets.
Michelle, who married Mark in 2015, previously told The Mirror: “I am a massive dog lover. My sausage dog has been with me since I was 21.
“Until you get your own dog you don’t realise how much love you have for your pets.
“Mark is a dog person, massively.
“He had to be to even go on a date with me. The most important things in my life are my dogs.”

Since Palma’s arrival earlier this month, Michelle and Mark, 38, have kept their little one largely out of the spotlight.
Yet former TOWIE star Mark this week how the couple decided on their baby name – and it had nothing to do with the Mallorca holiday destination.
He discussed Palma’s name as he appeared on This Morning on Friday alongside singer Olly Murs, 40.
While fans may have thought the name Palma was inspired by the Mallorcan capital, Mark clarified that wasn’t the case at all.
During the interview, Mark said he and wife Michelle, 37, simply loved the name Palmer, but with a twist.
He told hosts Dermot O’Leary and Sian Welby: “We just love the name, Palmer, with an E-R.
“And then we just liked putting an A on it, which is like the way it read. So yeah, we just love the name, really.”
The couple chose Elizabeth for their daughter’s middle name as tribute to Michelle’s great-great grandmother.
HAPPY CHAPTER
Mark and Michelle recently went on their first staycation with their bundle of joy.
Alongside pictures from the break in the Cotswolds, Mark gushed he was in his “dad era” and wrote: “In my Dad era…. 1st trip away with my girls.”
In the carousel of images, the reality TV veteran wore a dressing gown and held Palma close to his chest.
He and Michelle also clinked glasses of Aperol Spritz and, in another snap, they flashed smiles as they posed for a selfie in the back of a car.
Mark was also seen cutting a casual look as he strolled around in the sunshine with the pram, and another shot saw him cradling Palma in his arms while walking.
The couple took the opportunity to ride bikes in the countryside, making the most of the sunny weather.
The fan-favourite couple have also been seen out and about, accompanied by Michelle’s mum, Jackie Anne Thornton, who became a grandma for the first time when Palma was born.
Michelle was glowing as she pushed a light brown pram and doted on her newborn.
Yet, shortly after the trip, Mark was seen looking ready for bed as he returned to work life in London.
