Michelle Keegan tells Graham Norton 'I was so embarrassed' as fans all say same thing

He's the star of new Netflix thriller Fool Me Once

Graham Norton Show viewers couldn't help but comment on Michelle’s Keegan’s "stunning" appearance as she appeared on the famous red sofa. The former ITV Coronation Street star joined host Graham Norton and fellow guests The Crown's Dominic West, Game Of Thrones actor Jacob Anderson, comedian Alan Carr and American singer-songwriter Teddy Swims on the show tonight (Friday, January 5), Manchester Evening News reports.

Fool Me Once, the latest Netflix adaptation of bestselling author Harlan Coben's book, sees Michelle portraying the lead role of Maya Stern, who is trying to come to terms with the brutal murder of her husband, Joe, played by Obsession's Richard Armitage, which comes months after the murder of her sister.

The eight-part series landed on the streaming platform on New Year's Day (Monday, January 1) and hit the Top 10 most-watched list in the UK the following day.

Speaking on the Graham Norton Show, Michelle said she could not believe the show’s success describing it as “madness”.

She said: “It’s madness that it’s number one all over the world. I was always a huge fan of Harlan Coben books so when I got the call it was "Yes, absolutely," and I grabbed it with both hands.” However, rather than commenting on her role in the hit show, many of her fans could not resist gushing over her appearance as she stunned in a black dress with an eye-catching gold belt.
