Jess Wright and her brother Mark shot to fame as part of the original cast of The Only Way Is Essex back in 2010, and their lives have completely changed in the years since. Mark, 37, tied the knot with former Coronation Street actress Michelle Keegan in 2015, after meeting in Dubai a few years earlier.
