Mark Wright fans staggered by how tiny his lawnmower is for ‘massive’ mansion garden

Mark Wright has baffled fans with the size of his lawnmower in comparison to his Essex mansion’s sprawling gardens.

The Only Way Is Essex star, 37, and his soap actor wife Michelle Keegan, 37, have been documenting the completion of the home, which they built on land they purchased for £1.3million back in 2019, on the couple’s joint social media account.

They’ve given fans a look inside the lavish interior and the enormous garden, including a huge pool perfect for the summer months.

In his latest post, Mark has taken fans on a birds-eye view trip – or that should be a lawnmower’s-eye trip – while cutting the grass surrounding the property.

The TV star posted a video showing his robot mower from Husqvarna UK tackling the grass that he is ‘so obsessed with’ while he enjoys a beer by the pool.

In the voiceover, Mark says that the auto mowers are a ‘game-changer’ and he ‘leaves them running’ to keep the grass short.

In the caption, he wrote: ‘Honestly these robot mowers from @husqvarnauk are a game changer. They make your life so much easier and sending them out to graze means your lawn is always at optimum length, leaving you with top quality grass and no leftover grass clippings as it’s constantly cutting 1mm at a time, so no long leftovers. Couldn’t love these robots more. I’ll never look back.’

But fans who follow the star were left puzzled as to how such a tidy gadget could keep on top of the expansive garden.

‘Your garden is massive, how often do you have to empty it??’ its_mrs_t_harrison commented.

‘By the time that finishes, the grass will be growing again at the start. It must just constantly go round and round,’ _rachelhendrson.x wrote.

Alexwebb88 sceptically added: ‘I’m sorry but there is no way that lawn mower can cut all of that lawn.’

Rayla_hayward1 agreed, saying: ‘You’ve definitely not got this and got a gardener.’

Many suggested that Mark should get a ride-on mower to tackle to lawn, offering advice as to why.

‘A ride on mower would be much more fun for you, and you can sun tan while you ride,’ Sarah_lou_5555 wrote.

Cdugster 12 agreed: ‘I would prefer sit on a lawnmower, much more exciting.’

The discourse comes after the entrance to Mark and Michelle’s mega-mansion caused concern among social media users for one glaring reason.

The post about their hallway showed that the space was designed with white marble tiled flooring that flowed through the entrance to the kitchen at the back of the house.

The tiling continued all the way up the sweeping stairs to the first floor and bulbs of the raindrop-style chandelier could be seen dangling from the top floor.

While many were quick to compliment the interior design of the space, many were also keen to point out some of the obvious major flaws.

Many suggested that the floor looked rather dangerous and ‘not practical’ because of the slip factor.

Others suggested that while beautiful, the lightbulbs in the magnificent chandelier would be a little tricky to change.

Some also joked about how large the stairs were and the time it’d take to actually get to the upper floors of the massive home.

The caption read: ‘When we designed our house & first had visions, it was always the hall that everything was going to be built around. We showed Chris @escalier_uk our dream sweeping staircase and we remember his words “I will bring that to life exactly” when we show you the CGI you will see how he did that 💯 from the structure to balustrades & the handrail, they absolutely nailed it!!

‘Then it was about choosing the centrepiece…. The chandelier, this had to be right. Michelle had a vision of golden raindrops falling from the sky, she wanted it to be more than just a hanging ceiling light but more of a piece of art. We worked alongside @chantelle.lighting and created just that. The day we walked into the showroom to see the finished product (video to follow) we were absolutely blown away!!’
