Christine McGuiness opened up on life following her sensational decision to quit Celebs Go Dating as she felt it was too soon for her after divorce from Paddy McGuiness
When Christine McGuiness made the decision to quit the process of Celebs Go Dating, the wife of Paddy McGuiness left many open-mouthed. At the time, she claimed that she felt it was too soon for her to jump into the dating pool following her public divorce from Paddy, who is the father of her three children.
But when the Mirror exclusively caught up with Christine on the red carpet at the BAFTA TV Awards to find out how life is treating her following her exit, she revealed: “I’m really, really good. I’m happy to be at the BAFTAs, it’s a gorgeous day.”
And she also let slip that she is focusing on work which takes her mind off wanting to find a companion in the future. She went on to add: “There’s going to be an announcement in a few weeks which i’m very, very excited about for a new project I’ve been working on.”
Christine first met Paddy in 2007 when she was modelling at the Liverpool Tennis Tournament. Two years later, the funny man turned TV presenter popped the question and in 2011 the couple walked down the aisle.
But in 2022, the couple released a joint statement announcing their divorce after 15 years together.
And while the pair remained living separately in their marital home, it seems the decision to divorce was based on an “unforgiveable” reason.
Speaking on an episode of The Shizzio Show she failed to elaborate on the real reason behind the shocking decision. But she admitted: “It was a difficult time. It wasn’t something that, you know, I just decided to do overnight, or that we chose to do.”
She added: “We tried, and, yeah, there just, unfortunately, there was no repairing it, you know?” She went on: “I’ll always, always love him as the father of the children, and I still live at home with him, which says a lot.
Christine continued: “We separated three years ago, and we are completely divorced, and we live in separate parts of the house, but we share a family home.”
But this may explain the reason why the mum of three and reality TV star dropped out of Celebs Go Dating.
Christine shared with fans at the time: “I joined Celebs Go Dating with great intentions but have realised that dating on a public platform and the attention is brings is just too soon for me.”
Without ruling out the possibility of returning to the show in the future, she added: “They’ve said the door is always open for me which I’m so grateful but for now I’m returning home to my family.”
Just moments before she posted her announcement, she revealed that she was basking in the sunshine in the Spanish island of Ibiza.
