Christine McGuinness is reportedly growing increasingly unhappy with her living situation as she continues to share a home with her ex-husband Paddy McGuinness, despite their divorce being finalised. The former couple, who announced their split in 2022, had initially agreed to remain in their £2.5 million mansion in Cheshire for the sake of their three children.

However, sources close to Christine claim she is now “desperate to sell up” and move on. The unusual arrangement, which saw both parties remain in their seven-bedroom home despite their separation, was said to be driven by Paddy. Friends of the pair suggest the former Top Gear host was reluctant to part with the property, which features a swimming pool, gym, and glass balcony.

In an interview with the Daily Mail’s Weekend magazine, Paddy, 51, gave a positive assessment of the living situation, stating that it could work if it was done in a “respectful way”. However, Christine, 36, has reportedly confided to friends that her reality is far from harmonious.

According to insiders, Christine is growing increasingly frustrated with the arrangement, feeling “utterly miserable” as she continues to share the space with her ex-husband. She is now preparing for a fresh confrontation, having made it clear to Paddy that she wants to sell the property and move into a new home with their children.

Despite Christine’s insistence, Paddy, who is currently on tour with his comedy show, is said to be resistant to the idea. In his interview with the outlet, he maintained that their plan was “still the same” and added, “It doesn’t feel tricky”.

Christine’s friends have raised concerns over his reluctance to sell, suggesting that he is stalling until he can afford a new home that meets his expectations. One insider stated, “Christine is at the end of her tether and can’t carry on living with Paddy…She is desperate to sell the house, split the proceeds, and buy a smaller property where she can live happily with their three children”.

The couple, who were married in 2011, share three children, 11-year-old twins Leo and Penelope, and eight-year-old Felicity, all of whom are autistic. Christine was also diagnosed with autism in 2021.

Adding to Christine’s frustration, Paddy reportedly made a joke about their divorce during his recent stand-up tour. Just over a minute into his show, Nearly There, he quipped, “Tonight, folks, we’re all here as human beings with one common goal – and that’s to help me pay for my divorce. I’ve had the pants down, me, the pants down”. The BBC Radio 2 host also added: “I’m thinking of getting Children In Need to do a bike ride for me next year, or come round to a bedsit in Bolton filming me”.

However, sources close to Christine told The Sun that she had been “horrified” that Paddy made jokes on their relationship on stage since she has “kept a respectful silence during their divorce proceedings”. A source also added that Christine had been “distraught” at the idea people were laughing at their split.

This led to him scrapping any mention of their break-up during his later show in Middlesbrough, according to Mail Online, with a source saying he only mentioned Christine in regards to her autism diagnosis. The source said: “Paddy performed two 40-minute sets with a half hour break in between but at no point did he mention his divorce or splitting from Christine”.

Following her participation in ITV’s The Games in 2022, speculation began to grow about the state of their marriage. Later that year, they announced their separation, finalising their divorce in December 2023.

They both released statements on Instagram at the time, saying: “This was not an easy decision to make but we’re moving forward as the best parents we can be for our three beautiful children. We’ll always be a loving family, we still have a great relationship and still live happily in our family home together”.

The Mirror has approached Christine and Paddy’s reps for comment.

An insider revealed that bosses are hoping for a similar success to david Beckham’s hit Netflix documentary last year, which won an Emmy and was watched by millions.

“‘ The Beckhams documentary was the most-watched show on Netflix in the UK last year, and has racked up more than 200 million hours of viewing time globally.

” Coleen is loved by the British public, especially since she played a blinder on I’m A Celeb. It wasn’t surprising that Disney and Amazon wanted it and went head to head.

“It will make for compulsive viewing. It won’t just feature Coleen but Wayne and their children, too. It might be expensive, but the view is that it will be worth every penny”.

Coleen’s first major deal post I’m A Celeb, which she was reportedly paid £1.5 million for, was a collaboration with Applied Nutrition which she signed before heading to Australia and launched in January, following speculation about her beauty secrets from fans, who spotted her glowing skin in camp.

After the public scandal involving Jermaine Jenas, sources close to his wife have opened up about the real reason for the breakdown of their marriage.

Mere days ago, Ellie, married to ex-BBC presenter and footballer, 42, dropped a bombshell on social media, announcing their split with a brief statement. She confirmed they’ve gone their separate ways but will continue to co-parent their three children: 11-year-old Geneva, 8-year-old Olivia, and 2-year-old Jacob.

The mum-of-three wrote: “I never imagined I would have to share something so personal with the public, but given the situation, I feel it’s necessary. After 16 years together and four wonderful children, Jermaine and I have decided to part ways. We will remain friends and continue to co-parent”.

Now, sources close to the couple have revealed the real reason behind Jermaine and Ellie’s painful breakup.

According to insiders, Ellie initially hesitated to end the marriage, not wanting to add to the public backlash Jermaine was already facing. However, after reflecting on their future and allowing the scandal to settle, she realised their relationship couldn’t survive.

“It’s not something you can just brush off and move on from”, a source told The Daily Mail. “It felt like a lack of loyalty and respect, two things she believes are vital to a marriage. Ellie resisted ending the marriage initially because she didn’t want to add to the pile on Jermaine was receiving”.

They continued: “Although she must have been hugely disappointed by what happened, she didn’t want to break him completely. But after thinking long and hard about their future and allowing the furore surrounding his scandal to die down, it seems she knew their relationship wouldn’t survive and felt Jermaine was now in a better place to handle the separation”.

The source went on to add: “It’s very much Ellie who pushed to end the marriage”.

Jermaine has yet to address his estranged wife’s statement Their split comes just months after he left the BBC in August following accusations of sending inappropriate texts to female colleagues.

Before he was let go in August, the star, who was a co-host on The One Show and a regular pundit on sports shows and also hosted on BBC Radio 5 Live. He’d even been seen as a natural replacement for Gary Lineker, who announced last year he’d be stepping down as host of Match of the Day at the end of this season in May.

After his sacking from the BBC, Jenas apologised, saying he hadn’t done “anything illegal” and that the “inappropriate messages” were “between two consenting adults”. Jenas made his comeback to broadcasting last month on TalkSport radio.

“The last six, seven months have been extremely tough for myself and my family”, he said on his return. “But it’s also been a really good opportunity to kind of take stock, have a good look at why you find yourself in these kind of situations, and start to have some honest conversations, really.

” With yourself, with other people, people that are close to you, people that have been very supportive during this period of time and just kind of work your way back to a position where I can get back to doing what I love most. “
