She's been busy filming her latest project, Our Girl, in Manchester.

And it seemed Michelle Keegan was making the most of her downtime away from the set of the BBC drama on Wednesday, as she enjoyed a day out with her brother Andrew.

The 28-year-old actress was seen picking up a sweet treat following a hard day at work, as spent an evening with her sibling and a friend.

Michelle - who first shot to fame on ITV's Coronation Street - rocked a relaxed look as the trio strolled through the city centre.

And it seems that the Keegan kids were in the mood for a summery treat, as Michelle indulged her sweet tooth by tucking into a magnum ice cream.

Obviously in the mood to kick-back the pretty actress donned a grey scoop-neck sweater, which she teamed with a pair of complementary jogging bottoms.

The former soap siren added a touch of high-end fashion to her ensemble by accessorising her look with a Louis Vuitton handbag.

Wearing her long chestnut tresses loose and pushed back off of her face, the Ordinary Lies star allowed her arrow-straight locks to tumble down past her shoulders.

The actress, who recently celebrated her first anniversary with husband Mark Wright, accentuate her naturally striking features with a complementary make-up palette.

Michelle began filming Our Girl earlier this year, taking over the lead role from Lacey Turner, who will reprise her character of Molly Dawes but in a minor capacity due to her hectic filming schedule with EastEnders.

For her scenes, the star was forced to move to South Africa for six months, separating herself from her new husband Mark.

However, the couple have sunnier climes in sight for their next home, as they are reportedly set to ditch the UK.

Mark and Michelle, who have been plagued by rumours that their marriage is on the rocks in recent months, are thought to be heading to Los Angeles.

According to Heat magazine, the former TOWIE star and the actress are hoping that the big move will give their careers a boost as well as a new start away from the UK.

A source told the magazine: 'They think it could be really good for their marriage and they feel like it's a really good time for a fresh start.

'They've both made no secret of their wish to crack America, and they're making plans to move over there.'
