Michelle Keegan chooses a celebrity-loved pushchair in a mocha mousse colour that ‘does everything’ and is a ‘lifesaver’ for new parents
There are prams and then there are prams. Michelle Keegan, of course, has the latter. Taking her newborn daughter Palma out for a stroll today, Thursday 27 March, with her husband Mark Wright, the Fool Me Once Actress showed off her new purchase: an iCandy Peach 7 Coco pushchair.
If you’re don’t have children then an iCandy might not mean much to you, but those who have ever looked into buying a pram will immediately recognise the name. Widely considered to be the ‘Ferrari’ of the pushchair world, it’s a brand that has been spotted out with the Beckhams, Zara Tindall and Molly-Mae Hague, to name but a few. However, it does come with a hefty price tag to match it’s big reputation.
Currently £1249 on Boots, it’s definitely an investment purchase, but if you’re in the market for a pushchair and you’ve been eyeing it up, you can nab nearly £200 off Michelle’s exact model with the code BABY15 on Boots. Now that the actress has been spotted out with it, we predict this tonal brown model (shade ‘Coco’, to be specific) will sell out fast.
So what’s all the fuss about?
It’s got that sleek, stylish look, but it’s also super practical—because let’s be honest, no one has time to wrestle with a tricky pushchair while juggling a baby and a coffee. The carrycot is spacious and comfy enough for overnight sleeping, which is a lifesaver when you’re visiting family or just want a cosy spot for naps on the go. And the one-handed fold? Absolute game-changer when you’re holding a wriggly little one and need to pack up quickly.

What’s great about the Peach 7, reviewer says, is how it grows with your family. It easily switches from a single to a double pram, so if a sibling comes along, you don’t have to start from scratch. There’s even a built-in ride-on board for toddlers who want to hop on and off—because we all know how indecisive they can be! The basket is big enough for all your essentials, and the puncture-proof tyres mean you’re not stuck dealing with a flat in the middle of a park. Basically, it’s a pram that thinks of everything – hence why so many call it a ‘new parent lifesaver’
And while the price is undoubtedly steep, you are getting several function combined into one bundle, meaning you’re saving by buying this complete kit that’s suitable from birth to 25kg. Plus, if you have more kids planned, the five-year warranty on it and its durability means you’ll only need to splash out once.
Shoppers on John Lewis, where this same pushchair retails for a slightly steeper £1,299, have lots of good things to say about it…
“This pram bundle was perfect for us. The pram is so robust and well built. We love the style, the colour, in fact everything about it. There isn’t anything we don’t like about apart from it is a little on the heavy side (probably because it’s so sturdy). My sister bought the exact same pram as she liked ours so much,” writes one.
A second adds: “This is honestly the best purchase I’ve made for my son. This pram handles any terrain with ease. It’s got a bit of weight to it which I don’t think is a bad thing, it makes it feel really sturdy but gives a lovely smooth push. The fabrics are lovely and soft. The carry cot is a decent size – my son stayed in it until he was 7months and still had room. It’s also certified for safe overnight sleeping which is a bonus.”
“As a first time parent this has been a life saver!” a third says.
A few 4-star reviews do point out how they found it “heavy in comparison to other brands”, but the general consensus is that if you can afford to buy it, you’ll be happy you did. If the price is too steep, Ickle Bubba’s Stomp Luxe 12 Piece Travel System with i-Size Stratus Car Seat & ISOFIX Base comes in a brown colourway and will currently set you back £499.
