A source said: 'Channel 4 bosses were considering replacing Christine McGuinness but have ultimately decided not to. "Obviously they toyed with putting Chris Hughes in the mix but then he changed his mind, and they felt like that would have made the line-up too male heavy anyway. Advertisement READ MORE ON CELEBS GO DATING "Production is already underway and they didn't want to scramble to find someone of Christine's calibre because that signing took months to land. "They also have two late arrivals in the mix already with Mark Labbett and Sam Prince so it didn't make sense, format-wise, to have too many latecomers.' Last week Christine announced she had quit the E4 dating show. 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.
