Christine McGuinness puts on a VERY busty display in tiny black bikini as she soaks up the sun - after her dramatic exit from Celebs Go Dating
Christine McGuinness put on a jaw-dropping display as she flaunted her incredible figure in a barely-there black bikini while lounging by a pool on holiday. The model, 37, showed off her ample assets and toned curves in the skimpy two-piece, as she took to Instagram to share a video of her family getaway. Teaming her sexy look with a pair of chic black sunglasses, Christine enjoyed the sunshine. The TV personality then made her way down to the beach, grinning from ear to ear as she carried a playful pink doughnut-shaped rubber ring. Relaxed and glowing, the mum-of-three looked to be making the most of her sun-soaked getaway with her mum and twins Leo and Penelope, and daughter Felicity, who she shares with ex husband Paddy McGuinness. Christine's sense of style didn't go unnoticed either and at one point she swapped her swimwear for a chic baby pink mini skirt and fitted black top. The star was later spotted at the airport in travel mode, rocking a casual black vest top and headphones as she prepared to jet home from her luxurious break. She captioned the post: 'I'm a mommy' ❤️ Back home from a family holiday and wow this mama is ready for bed with a heart and camera roll full of memories and milestones ✨ 'Proud of my babies always and my mum thank you nutty nanny for the extra hands, eyes, ears It really does take a village! ❤️❤️❤️' It comes after Celebs Go Dating scenes aired on Monday night showing clear signs that Christine wanted to leave the programme. The TV personality, who announced she had quit the show in May, appeared visibly uncomfortable during the mixer when the celebs were tasked to pick someone to take to Ibiza in the hope they would get closer. But all seemed too much for Christine as she insisted on 'taking a minute' outside with her fellow co-star Kerry Katona. She panicked: 'I need a minute, I can go for a minute can't I? I don't want to just take someone away. 'How can I go abroad with someone I've just met? This is just not normal.' Christine's sense of style didn't go unnoticed either and at one point she swapped her swimwear for a chic baby pink mini skirt and fitted black top, showing off her slender legs as she strolled along some decking When it was announced she would appear on the show, it was revealed that Christine would be up for dating both men and women on the show. Christine revealed it felt 'too soon' for her to date so publicly following her divorce from ex-husband Paddy McGuinness. She had already flown to Ibiza to begin filming the series with the rest of the cast but told fans she was 'returning home to her family' after having a change of heart. Revealing the news on Instagram, she said: '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.' Christine also said that she may appear in the future, adding: '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.' Talking on Celebs Go Dating, Christine said: 'I feel like I'm a couple of steps away from being my new self and not 'Paddy's wife'. I'm coming out of the transition part. 'I am single and I absolutely do love women. I'd love to explore that more and I definitely see that's where I'm more comfortable.' She added: 'When I was a teenager, I dated men and women before I was married and now I'm really, really just enjoying spending time with women. 'For the last three years, I've only ever dated women. I was never heterosexual, I've never labelled myself anything other than Christine, to be honest.' Christine was married to TV presenter Paddy for 11 years before they split for good in 2022. After they stayed living together for the sake of their three children - who have all been diagnosed with autism - the exes finalised their divorce out of court last summer.
