Christine McGuinness’ relationship status after heartbreaking split from Paddy
Share:
Christine McGuinness seemed to have it all – three kids, a lovely home, and a successful TV career and marriage to a star. Yet beneath the glamorous exterior, the former beauty queen was in turmoil and she did not know why. Four years ago there was a lightbulb moment for Christine, 36, when she discovered that, like her three children, she was on the autism spectrum.
The revelation changed the life of the former Real Housewives of Cheshire star. Since then she has made documentaries about the subject and also split up with comedian husband and Radio 2 presenter Paddy McGuinness. She says: “I lived most of my life quite confused, wondering why everyone else seemed to be OK and I wasn’t. My diagnosis changed my life.”.
Now resolutely single, Christine seems to have the world at her feet and one priority – the kids she shares with Paddy, twins Leo and Penelope, 11, and Felicity, eight. During an exclusive chat with OK!, she says: “I have absolutely no romance goals whatsoever.
“I’m just focusing on my children and when I can find time for myself, I’ll socialise. But it’s not the right time for me to have a relationship, while my children are so young.”. Her 11-year marriage to Paddy, 51, came to a very public end in 2022, shortly after their first documentary, Paddy and Christine McGuinness: Our Family and Autism.
