Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan only see each other once a month.
The couple – who recently celebrated their second wedding anniversary – are both incredibly busy with their careers but make sure that when they find the time to see each other, they get some quality time together.
Mark told the Sunday Mirror: "I’ve just come back from being with her and it was absolutely amazing. We had the best time.
"She is going to be in South Africa on and off until next year and I’m going to be in Los Angeles so we are making sure we see each other once a month.
"When we do see each other it is really special, although when I visit her on set she does have to work.
"But just hanging out together and being with each other is great.
"She really is the most incredible woman, I love her so much. We just make it work."
Michelle, 29, is filming ‘Our Girl’ for the BBC in South Africa, while Mark has landed a job as a roving showbiz reporter with US show ‘Extra’.
The role will see Mark assist on the production side of the show as well as report on events during his time on the programme.
Speaking about the former ‘The Only Way Is Essex’ star’s upcoming venture, a source recently said: "This is a massive gig for Mark.
"It will put him in the homes of millions of Americans every day.
"He’s been out in LA for the past few weeks having meetings with the major networks and all the noises are very positive."
And the dark-haired hunk is hopeful his new position will "go well", and will enable him to land "more work" across the pond.
The source continued: "He’s hoping it will go well so that more work in the States follows."
It is rumoured that his first task will see him visit the set of former One Direction band member Niall Horan’s music video and report behind the scenes for the channel.
