The soap star and the dancer tied the knot in 2007 and share two children together, Jayden, 20, and Renee, 16.
It comes after the family enjoyed a sun-soaked boat trip in Lanzarote last month.
Michelle looked incredible in a purple cut-out swimsuit as she smiled for the camera alongside Renee.
In another snap, the family were seen looking out to sea in front of a picturesque sunset.
Along with the photodump, Will penned: ‘About last week!! Had a fantastic week away with the family in Lanzarote #familytime’.
It comes after Will revealed he was just hours away from quitting acting before landing a role in ITV’s acclaimed drama Mr Bates vs The Post Office.
The miniseries has become ITV’s biggest new drama in over a decade , after telling the story of a long-running campaign to expose the Horizon IT system scandal, in which hundreds of Post Office staff were wrongfully accused of theft and fraud.
Will, who has acted for 35 years, has now revealed that he was considering giving up acting in favour of presenting work when he got the call offering him a part in the series.

Speaking on the Two Pints with Will and Ralf podcast, he said: ‘The day before I got the phone call from my agent about Mr Bates I was gonna give it up.
‘I swear on my life. I said to my missus, “I don’t think I want to keep acting. It’s just not happening”.
‘I’m hosting this thing called Cops Gone Bad and was thinking I might go down that route and do more presenting, factual stuff.’
The actor played the role of Lee Castleton in the series, a postmaster wrongly accused of fraud and theft, and he starred opposite Amy Nuttall, who played his wife Lisa.
He added: ‘It’s been the biggest drama I’ve ever done and the biggest drama of the last 10 years.
‘You don’t know what tomorrow is going to bring, so don’t give up.’
‘We knew people would talk about it because it was a true story. But you could not even imagine how big it’s gone.’
Since his role in the series, Will has reprised his role as the villainous Harvey Gaskell on Coronation Street.
