Former Coronation Street favourite Michelle Keegan has gone public with a startling new look as she prepares to play Bobby Moore's wife Tina in a biopic

Do blondes really have more fun? Michelle Keegan is apparently investigating the concept as she unveiled a dramatically lighter new look.

She showed off her makeover in this Instagram selfie and she looks so... different!

It is likely that she has changed her hair colour to blonde as she prepares to play Bobby Moore’s wife Tina in a new series chronicling the life of the legendary England captain.

It’s a busy time for Michelle as she was recently spotted filming the lead role in BBC1 army drama Our Girl, which featured Lacey Turner in the lead role in series one.
