CHRISTINE McGuinness has opened up about her relationship with ex Paddy - and the affect joining Celebs Go Dating had on her.

"I've been separated from my ex husband for three years. We get on really well.
"We still live at home together, but of course, I want some adult company. I can't just sit and be with children all day, every day.
"I like that time out - being away from home when I'm working - but I haven't got that time out being away from home not working and just enjoying some adult company.
"I haven't had that, so I got the opportunity and thought, You know what? Why not? I understand myself, so I'll be fine.
"I'll manage it and it was just a step too far."
The alum continued: "I found it quite overwhelming, so I listened to myself and I'm really, really proud that I recognised how I felt...
"I went home to my children after two weeks. I was supposed to do 10 weeks of filming - and I'd done two weeks - and I'm really, really proud of myself that I did what was right for me."
She added: "If something doesn't feel right for you, physically, mentally, emotionally, it's okay to leave.
"That's something I tell my children quite a lot, because being autistic, you can stay and do what other people want you to do.
"I think it's really, really important to know that you can leave the party, you can leave the job, leave the event, you can leave the relationship at any time."
Christine McGuinness had 'fun' fling with top soap actress after pair met at awards ceremony following split from Paddy
Paddy and Christine announced they had separated in 2022 after 15 years together.
The pair still live together for the sake of their children, despite the split.
Christine spoke out about her sexuality for the first time recently, revealing she has dated both sexes since she was a teen.
The Sun revealed her fling with a leading soap actress earlier this month.
Their encounter came in 2023, the year after Christine split from her ex-Top Gear host husband, Paddy McGuinness, 51.
The well-known actress, whom we are not naming, has previously been in relationships with men.
Months after their marriage ended, Christine was pictured kissing singer Chelcee Grimes, 33.
It has been revealed how Christine got "incredibly close" to footballer Chelcee before splitting from husband Paddy, 51.
Yet the songwriter's recent fallout with pal Christine recently came to light, with the real reason for the pair's toxic spat revealed.
The former couple have since disconnected on social media.
Paddy and Christine first met through a mutual friend in 2007, when she was 19 and he was 33.
In 2020, she was diagnosed with autism and ADHD after spending the majority of her life confused as to why she acted differently from everyone else growing up.
Since then, the TV star has been raising awareness for it through interviews, television shows and public speaking.

Christine on Celebs Go Dating
Christine walked away from Celebs Go Dating after admitting she wasn't ready to date in the public eye
In May 2025 Christine announced she had left the show after becoming overwhelmed with the attention on her love life and missing her family.
In a statement, Christine said: ' I joined Celebs Go Dating with great intentions but have realised that dating on a public platform and the attention that brings is just too soon for me.
'They've said the door is always open for me, which I'm so grateful for, but for now I'm returning home to my family.'
A Celebs Go Dating spokesperson added: 'We have loved having Christine on the show and completely respect her feelings and decision to return home and have told her that the door is always open for her in the future at the agency.'

The more comical the action at women's Euros, the more woke BBC get – one pundit's pearl of wisdom was red card offence

A SIMPLE equation is at play with the BBC and ITV's coverage of the women's Euros – the ­funnier the football gets, the more earnest the pundits must become. To the point, when things go really haywire, they sound more like they're dissecting Garry Kasparov versus the Deep Blue chess computer than the latter stages of a football tournament. 7 BBC's pundits during the England/Sweden game 7 Pundit Gabby Logan for BBC Sport Credit: Instagram/gabbylogan 7 Ian Wright during ITV's coverage of England/Italy semi-final Credit: Pixel8000 A sly reference to the exquisite mayhem of the England/Sweden penalty shoot-out, in Zurich, on BBC1, which has to be a contender for the...
