She’s just so gorgeous! Want to look like her.

Really enjoying her new series on Netflix, love every outfit (aside from a shiny puffy jacket maybe)

She’s a Northerner too, so extra points 😂

I thought she was younger than she is though

I don’t think she’s had a tummy tuck either - she’s always been lean around her mid section (there’s enough pap shots over the last 20 years or so) and hasn’t had children.

Alcyoneus · 05/01/2024 00:48

To be honest she is like a caricature of a northerner on a night out clubbing. The type you see in memes. She is no different to the average TikTok influencer. And an average actress to boot.

Alcyoneus · 05/01/2024 00:50

And the Netflix series is crap. She just shows hopping in the car, driving around from one location to the next throughout without much else happening. The whole series is a product placement add for Jaguar.

I think she's a good actress and find her very watchable.

Her looks, etc, should be neither here nor there when discussing her acting ability, but seeing as it's been brought up, I think she looks as lovely as ever, and I also think that if you've nothing nice to say about her looks, it's better not to comment at all as it comes across as bitter or mean.

Christmasnutcracker · 05/01/2024 00:58

I think she's unrecognisable from how she looked pre surgery.
That isn't a good thing because to be truly beautiful and recognisable, she has to look like herself instead of being like everyone else.

SpringViolet · 05/01/2024 01:02

She is blandly beautiful in a Kardashian family kind of way. I think most people would have had work though in her industry. As long as she’s happy with it, who cares.

She’s not a bad actress (not really watched much she’s in apart from 10 pound Poms) but I thought she was totally unbelievable in Fool Me Once. In the Army, a helicopter pilot, a fighter of men, looking like she’d just walked out of a fashion shoot! The storyline was ridiculous and unbelievable anyway.

She's stunning looking but a shit actress.

Yes, she just plays herself...

Sleepydoor · 05/01/2024 01:25

AmazingDayz · 04/01/2024 22:27

Oh this is interesting as I saw an ad of that show and I remember thinking how average she looks, people make out she’s absolutely breathtaking!

If this wasn't an anonymous forum I would think you are negging her.

dutysuite · 05/01/2024 01:28

I wouldn’t look at her and think I want to look like her no, plus she’s had loads of work done and her teeth fixed so can afford to look polished.

Thequeenofwishfulthinking · 05/01/2024 01:44

She was quite pretty in Corrie but nowhere close to beautiful. I don’t think she’s beautiful and she’s very enhanced.
In the new series you can tell from her skin that’s she’s not ageing well. She doesn’t glow like naturally beautiful people do. It’s very obvious as there are lots of close ups.
The pp who are complimenting her based on her hair tied back, casual clothes etc are ignoring the full face of professional make up, veneers, hair extensions, fillers, surgery and clothes that are perfectly tailored to her figure for the series in question. This is not beauty to me.
I’ve said it before but she plays the same character in everything she’s in. She does feisty very well. I like her and admire her work ethic. She has lovely brown eyes and seems like a genuine person too.
I think she’s an average northern girl who has been very very lucky.
I hope she doesn’t spoil herself with excessive work as she’s only late 30s now.
I’m enjoying the new series she’s in as I’m a huge HC fan.

Snuggleyou · 05/01/2024 01:56

What, why ? She’s never been overweight or pregnant. How bizarre.

Snuggleyou · 05/01/2024 02:09

She’s pleasant enough but I just don’t get the people who are putting her on a pedestal, she reminds me of Mercedes off Hollyoaks (the kind of fake brash look men say they hate but we all know they’re lying) Also she acts and sounds the same in everything she’s in. Also comes across as charmless and boring in interviews. I don’t care if anyone calls me bitter or mean it’s my honest opinion as we are all entitled to them, believe it or not Michelle will have them behind closed doors too. If I thought she was ugly I’d just keep it zipped because that would be mean and unnecessary.

Pieceofpurplesky · 05/01/2024 02:24

It took three posts. Write someone started slagging her off. Women really are their own worst enemies. Imagine reading all this shit about yourself?
Be nicer!

Mumof118 · 05/01/2024 02:25

I had to Google her, but I think she definitely looks better after all of the work. I don’t think she was actually that good looking prior to her surgeries and fillers, but she does look very pretty now.

Pieceofpurplesky · 05/01/2024 02:25

Before not write

declutteringmymind · 05/01/2024 02:25

She is definitely beautiful, in a conventional way.

I am totally obsessed with her hair and wardrobe in Fool Me. I've been trying to update my smart casual wardrobe and have really enjoyed the styling on her. That figure looks very high maintenance though.

blackpanth · 05/01/2024 02:26

Some nasty jealous people on this thread. I think she's beautiful

People aren’t nasty and jealous simply because they disagree with you.

Beauty is subjective after all.

No need for some of the comments tho

Snuggleyou · 05/01/2024 02:29

So you find all women the world over beautiful and stunning and never disagree with opinions on pop culture ?

Amybelle88 · 05/01/2024 02:47

I don't think she's had anywhere near as much done as people think. Botox yes, lip filler yes, possibly a nose job? But could just be a bad pic from when she was younger? I can't see much else?

She's bloody stunning and I think she's a phenomenal actress who is often overlooked because of how good looking she is.

Chichimcgee · 05/01/2024 02:47

Honestly I think she looks a bit plain, I wouldn’t even notice if she walked past me in the street.
I suppose it’s nice to think that maybe someone out there thinks I’m breathtaking since we all have clearly different tastes lol

betumble · 05/01/2024 03:07

I don't think she's above average. She looked better without all the enhancements too. The jaw filler and lip filler particularly is not a good look.

I've only seen her in Poms, which was awful, and her acting was terrible. The obviously enhanced face jarred with the time period.

RiaLia · 05/01/2024 03:14

Touty · 05/01/2024 00:29

How is she worth millions?

Because she's worked for it? Multiple TV series, magazine deals, clothing range to name a few.

Thequeenofwishfulthinking · 05/01/2024 03:25

blackpanth most posters aren’t being nasty and jealous. They just don’t agree.
I have an opinion on MKs acting skills based on watching her in various things.
I have an opinion on the way MKs looks/looked based on my perception of beauty.
I don’t think MK is anything special to look at compared to the women I see or have seen in my life or on screen.
I think Natalie Anderson who plays MKs sister in Fool me once is beautiful. She glows when on screen, has beautiful skin and hair and has a naturally very very pretty face. I think the two as sisters worked with Clare as the pretty sister who married young and Maya as the plainer more feisty sister who focused on her career initially.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
Not everyone is a nasty or jealous person. You need to accept that people can think and say what they want on here as long as they aren’t abusive.
