Michelle certainly seemed excited with the latest post, which seemed to hint at her ensemble, with the stunning lace layered beneath the simple countdown.
Back in August Michelle revealed she’d set a third wedding date, after the COVID-19 pandemic forced them to postpone their big day twice.
The star who was initially set to tie the knot in early Spring, shared a glam snap of herself on Instagram – on what would have been her rescheduled wedding date.
Captioning the selfie, which showed her standing before a waterfront setting, she wrote: ‘Today was meant to be the day Doug and I got married.

‘It’s the second time we’ve had to postpone our special day, but we’ve set a date and are more excited than ever. #ThirdTimeLucky.’
Following government guidelines amid the novel coronavirus lockdown, Michelle explained back in March that she didn’t want to risk the health of her guests and older family members at the large gathering.
The ‘disappointed’ entrepreneur said in a statement: ‘Doug and I were very much looking forward to getting married in the coming weeks but are equally aware of the need to avoid undertaking any unnecessary risks in the current circumstances.

‘We are particularly conscious of government advice in relation to both the well-being of older family members and large gatherings of people.
‘So in line with that advice for the UK and beyond we are postponing our wedding and have set a new date. It’s been two years in the planning and of course we’re disappointed but safety comes first.’
She added: ‘I feel for everyone who is in the same situation and hope that they, like us, will be looking forward to a celebration in the future.’
