Michelle Keegan has hit back at claims that she wore make-up when posing for her recent #nomakeupselfie photo.

Mark Wright's other half tweeted a snap of herself in bed without make-up in a bid to help raise money and awareness for Cancer Reasearch UK.

However, Keegan was forced to dismiss allegations that she was actually wearing a full face of slap for the stunning selfie.

Responding to claims made by a Twitter user that she was "using a good cause for self-promotion", Michelle replied: "I got 14.000 favourites with that pic, if everyone donated that means the charity got £42.000...did u donate! Probably not!"

The Coronation Street actress added: "And just for the record I actually wasn't wearing make-up! Stop being so negative it's for charity U silly boy!"

Keegan took part in the #nomakeupselfie campaign after it spread like wildfire online, and in just six days, has since raised over £8 million for Cancer Research UK.
