Traditionally, Galentine’s Day is celebrated the day before Valentine’s and became popular after being featured on season two of comedy show Parks and Recreation.
In the show, Amy Poehler’s character Leslie Knope tells viewers that February 13 is all about ‘celebrating lady friends’ and ‘should be a national holiday’.
It comes after Michelle gave fans a glimpse of what to expect from her affordable new clothing range as it goes on sale to the general public.
The former Coronation Street star has teamed up with online brand Very for another collection of comfortable co-ords, sweaters and sweeping winter coats.

Taking to Instagram as it officially launched on Thursday, Michelle showed off the new autumnal range in a series of short videos and photos.
In the first she wears casual tan brown lounge-wear while relaxing at home with her pet Chihuahua Pip, one of two dogs owned by Michelle and husband Mark.
While a second image captures the star as she wears a comfortable cream sweater with contrasting sleeves while relaxing in the passenger seat of her car.
Michelle is currently back at work on the Manchester set of Sky One show Brassic, but she was forced to stop filming last year after she was exposed to COVID-19.
While she had come into contact with the virus, she had not contracted it.
A source told MailOnline: ‘Michelle had to take time away from the Brassic set once again and has been laying low in Essex with her husband Mark Wright.
‘She only missed one day of filming. But she needed to isolate after she came into contact with someone in Manchester who had it.
‘Luckily it all happened very quickly and Michelle did not return to the Brassic set before isolating. So it didn’t affect filming too much.
‘She has spent last two weeks in total isolation. She will go back to filming at the end of this week.’
