Mark Wright has shared the latest development of his home renovation as he shared new updates with followers on Tuesday.
Taking to Instagram the 36-year-old shared a preview of the lavish Ibiza inspired swimming pool at the £3.5 million Essex mansion he shares with wife Michelle Keegan, 36.
He shared a video of the large pool being filled up by a single hose in front of a beautiful view.
The couple have chosen a white-tiled pool surrounded by large grey paving slabs for the surrounding area.
Mark explained it was his wife’s idea to have the light-coloured tiles as she wanted it to look like the pools in Mallorca and Ibiza.

He said: ‘It’s been a long time coming, having a swimming pool at home can only be a dream, finally it’s complete.
‘One Pool And Spa have done the work and now it’s up to me to fill it up. The swimming pool journey begins, what a feeling! We could be here all day, all week.’
Sharing a clip of the pool a bit later when the pool had filled up slightly he praised the pool fitter company One Pool & Spa.
Mark explained: ‘It was Michelle’s idea to have white tiles like Mallorca and Ibiza. I was like “but then the water’s not going to look blue” and she was like “of course it will!” Definitely right.
‘Beautiful that is absolutely gorgeous. Great finish by the guys at One Pool and Spa they always smash it, looks amazing and by tomorrow it will be full.’
The finished outdoor space looks gorgeous as it looks out onto the beautiful Essex countryside.
The mansion has undergone a huge amount of work over the last year as they built their dream home from scratch.
And the pool has most definitely been a work in progress, as Mark explained earlier this month that they had had to pause work on it due to bad weather.
A dream: The star stood shirtless holding the garden hose as he said: ‘It’s been a long time coming, having a swimming pool at home can only be a dream, finally it’s complete’
Ibiza inspired: Mark explained it was his wife’s idea to have the white tiles as she wanted it to look like the pools in Mallorca and Ibiza but that he was concerned the water wouldn’t look blue enough
He explained: ‘Cause of the constant rain, the grass is doing exceptionally well, but it means the pool had to come to a halt because we couldn’t obviously tile – they wouldn’t stick while it was full up on water. There was like two inches of water. we have drained it all out today.’
In one video the workmen tiled the top step on the pool. Mark went on to reveal why they made this specific design choice to his followers.
The reality star said: ‘The reason why we have done a big deep top step is because it’s almost like a little kids pool… Dogs, the kids can paddle around in it and we can sit on top of here… Love the design.’
During some of the video snaps, Mark delivered the workmen cheese and coleslaw sandwiches and glasses of orange squash as they were busy at work.
He also offered them plenty of words of encouragement, telling the workmen that the patio was ‘looking spotless’.
It comes after the couple have been giving fans a glimpse into their stunning Essex mansion after moving into the property last year.

A past stunning snap of the property showed a lavish outdoor area, complete with three cabana sun beds and multiple loungers.
The garden – which looks like something out of a Hollywood movie – also includes a stunning pool, lying in the middle of a white stone terrace.
There are also huge steps leading down to the garden area, lit up by dramatic lights.
In another snap, a different angle showed a big grey couch and fire pit patio area closer to the house.
Posting the photos to their joint home account, @wrightyhome, fans were also shown a huge area of green space, leading onto un-tarnished fields.
The TOWIE star and his actress wife moved into their stunning home in September last year.
They bought the home back in October 2019 for £1.3 million, and have been documenting the renovation process via Instagram.
