Keegan has been steadily climbing up FHM’s 100 Sexiest Women list since she debuted at #30 in 2010 – in 2014 she was named the fourth sexiest woman in the world by the magazine.

Keegan thanked her fans for voting for her on Twitter, noting that she was “very overwhelmed” by the honor.

The actress and Lipsy London designer – her collection, Love Michelle Keegan, is available through the retail website – is engaged to British TV host and reality star Mark Wright.
