Christine took to Instagram on Tuesday to share a montage of snaps of her life over the past few weeks, including two snaps with Roxxxan as they partied into the early hours.

She captioned the post: ‘Life lately Camera roll from the last couple of weeks. So much more to catch up. I’ll update more soon’.

Capturing different bits from the stunning beach-side location, she wrote: ‘Landed in paradise. I’ll show you more of this place soon.’

Christine, who ‘shared a kiss on the lips with singer Chelcee Grimes’ last year shortly after her split from ex Paddy McGuinness, also shared a stunning bikini snap in the same mirror.

Christine split from her ex husband Paddy two years ago and revealed earlier this month she was dating again.

The model and the presenter, 50, got married in June 2011 and went on to welcome twins Leo and Penelope, 10, and seven-year-old Felicity, before splitting in 2022.

Last month, it was reported the pair – who have maintained a strong relationship and still live together with their children – settled their divorce amicably, avoiding a lengthy court battle.

During an appearance on Loose Women on Tuesday, Christine happily announced that she had begun a new romance, but kept tight-lipped on the details, while revealing her ‘number one rule’.

She declared: ‘I am dating! With terms and conditions. But the number one rule – I’m not doing the cooking.’

Christine was diagnosed with autism in 2021 and struggles with sensory issues surrounding food, but explained she had spoken to her new partner about her preferences ahead of their date.

She said: ‘I am dating, it’s all brand new, but we spoke a lot before our first date and I explained I don’t want to go to a restaurant or eat out.’

Breaking into excited giggles, she concluded: ‘It’s new, it’s exciting, it’s nice – that’s all I want to say!’

And she proudly declared that she was enjoying pushing herself out of her comfort zone with dating and going on Celebrity MasterChef, saying: ‘I want my kids to see me going to work, being happy, trying new things. And I want it for me too.’

Embracing her new life post her split from Paddy, Christine has been spending her time in Roxxan’s company.

Roxxxan spoke out about her sexuality in an interview with Hunger last year.

She said: ‘I live my truth. I’m quite fearless. I don’t mind being the only gay in the village, or the only gay in grime. And because I am quite masculine and my voice is deep, people do look over and they want to hear what I have to say.’

Chelcee Grimes Slams Christine McGuinness and Reveals New Romance

Chelcee Grimes took a swipe at her ex Christine McGuinness on Saturday as she branded her former flame ‘fake’ while revealing her new relationship.

The singer, 32, and the presenter, 36, who have both moved on, were pictured sharing a kiss last year following Christine’s split from her ex husband Paddy McGuinness, but later unfollowed each other on social media.

Sharing an update on Saturday, Chelcee announced she was dating a mystery red headed woman as she shared some recent snaps of them together.

‘Private but not a secret,’ she captioned the post, while keeping her partner’s face hidden.

And when one follower commented: ‘Someone that also isn’t hiding it from the press – win,’ Chelcee appeared to take a swipe at Christine.

‘Ahahahahahahaha honestly just gotta laugh at this point. Copies everything I do,’ she responded.

MailOnline exclusively revealed this week that Christine had been enjoying a holiday with ‘tomboy’ musician Roxxxan, after they fuelled romance rumours with a cosy footsie snap.

Referring to her update, Chelcee’s pal wrote back: ‘Literally then appears on The Sun as “new man” but comes back and says she’s single it’s all very odd, those red trainers weren’t any new man.’

Another follower added: ‘Christine is fake as they come, Chelcee deserved so much better. Christine can keep trying to get attention and fake a new romance.’

The singer then liked the comment, appearing to agree.

Someone else shared their hopes that Chelcee and Christine were back together, which she soon shot down: ‘Oh I adored you with Christine. Please say it’s her in a wig, she has one of them bracelets in her vid too,’ they wrote.

In a now-deleted response, Chelcee hit back: ‘No. I had enough of being a secret for two years.’

Chelcee previously formed a close friendship with Christine with the pair even pictured kissing in December 2022.

The kiss came after Christine split from husband Paddy McGuinness in the summer of 2022, after 11 years of marriage and share three children together.

However, they have since unfollowed each other on social media with Chelcee’s recent comments hinting at a feud.

MailOnline has contacted representatives for both Chelcee and Christine for comment.

MailOnline understands the model is staying in the same hotel as Roxxxan in an unknown holiday destination and have both shared mirror selfies in a similar ensuite bathroom.

On Tuesday, Roxxxan posted a snap on her Instagram showing off her tattooed legs which were visible in the footsie snap that Christine shared on Monday.

The pair both follow each other on their Instagram accounts and have been documenting their holiday on social media.

It is unclear what the current nature of their relationship is.

It comes after Roxxxan previously admitted she is ‘one hundred per cent a tomboy and masculine’ as she opened up to HUNGER magazine.

She told the publication: ‘Now I’m more likely to say I’m masculine. I own it more. I said I was a tomboy at the time because I was still afraid to step into my truth and own who I am entirely.

‘I realised that I just have more masculine energy, but that I’m still she and her. I am proud to be a woman, but I’m this version of a woman.’

Christine McGuinness Spotted Playing Footsie with Mystery Man on Vacation

Christine McGuinness fuelled romance rumours after she posted a snap playing footsie with a mysterious man during a sun-soaked getaway.

The model, 36, and her mystery partner wore matching red Adidas trainers – with just the man’s tattooed leg visible.

Earlier in the day, Christine gave a sneak-peek into her latest lavish holiday but did not reveal the exact location or who she was staying with.

Capturing different bits from the stunning beach-side location, she wrote: ‘Landed in paradise. I’ll show you more of this place soon.’

It seems it could be the start of a new romance for the former beauty queen – two years after her amicable split with ex husband Paddy McGuinness.

MailOnline have contacted Christine’s representatives for a comment.

Previously Paddy, 50, insisted he would support his estranged wife Christine if she was to meet someone else.

The former couple still live together despite their split for the sake of their three children, 10-year-old twins Leo and Penelope, and Felicity, seven.

Christine was recently linked to television presenter and footballer Chelcee Grimes, 31, after the pair shared a kiss but Christine is understood to be single.

However, if she was to fall for someone, TV star Paddy claimed he would be supportive of her new relationship.

He told the Mirror: ‘If Christine met someone else, I’d be supportive. If someone didn’t know our situation and came to our house and they spent the day with us, they would not have a clue (we were not together).

‘We get on well, we live together and co-parent. We get the lawyers back and forth but that’s separate – that’s a different thing.

‘I tried a couple of dates last year – After 12 months of adjusting to life on my own I felt I should give it a try rather than really wanting to.

‘For now I’m happy being single. For now, we’re happy with how things are, living together and helping each other balance work and kids.’

Christine’s love life hit the headlines in 2022 when she was spotted sharing a kiss with pal Chelcee.

But Chelcee is now ‘on a dating detox’, telling Getting Lippy: ‘I feel like my life is in a really good place right now, I’ve got everything I could have wished for genuinely and more in abundance…

‘So I’m just on a bit of a dating detox right now…

‘I’ve just not met the right person. But I don’t know when I’m going to meet them because I just work and I come home to the dog.

‘I never go out and I’m not on dating apps. I’m 31, I’m just about to move into my dream home, I’ve still got time.’

Chelcee previously formed a close friendship with Christine with the pair even pictured kissing in December 2022.

The pair have since unfollowed each other on social media. The kiss came after Christine split from husband Paddy McGuinness in the summer of 2022, after 11 years of marriage and share three children together.

Meanwhile, Christine has planned her first solo getaway since her split from ex-husband Paddy.

She told The Sun: ‘I always book things last minute, because I’m always trying to work around Patrick’s diary and my diary.

‘But I booked a solo trip for May and now I’m telling you this, I’m going to do it, but I’m pretty certain by the time it comes, I’ll end up asking someone to come with me!’

She added: ‘It’s a retreat, and I was invited to go on my own.

‘I think everyone there is pretty much on their own. And I just thought, there’s nothing in the diary.

‘Patrick’s here, and it’s only for a couple of days. I’ve booked it in and the plan is to go on my own and have a little solo trip.’

Christine McGuinness Opens Up About Fear of Dating Again After Split from Paddy

Christine McGuinness revealed she is not ‘rushing’ into any new relationships following her split from comedian husband Paddy.

The couple, who share three children together, revealed they were separating two years ago and Christine, 35, has now admitted she ‘isn’t ready for anything serious’ with a new partner.

Travelling to Wales for BBC Two series Pilgrimage: The Road Through North Wales, Christine has already started her journey towards freedom but not away from her ex.

In the three-part series, she revealed: ‘The only life I’ve known is with Patrick and I’m not sure what my path is now I’m on my own. I need to figure it out.

‘Patrick and I have been separated for almost two years now, but I don’t think I’ve dealt with the separation completely yet and I know that one day I’m going to have to do that.

‘Everyone has hard times, everyone has challenges, but if only you could gather all your trauma or your worries and just chuck it away.

‘The biggest change is to come, I’m just scared of doing it.’

Christine has no plans to move out of the family home she shares with the comedian, 50, as they co-parent their twins Penelope and Leo, nine, and Felicity, six, who all have autism.

Despite Paddy admitting he has been on a few days since the couple split, Christine revealed she is terrified to date another man.

Christine told The Sun’s TV mag: ‘I don’t see myself getting married again. I just don’t. I’ve never had time to myself. I was with Patrick since I was 19 and now I’m single for the first time in a long time.

‘I don’t need to tell anyone where I’m going or what I’m doing. That is so freeing and something that I’m not sure I want to give away again.’

The couple now sleep in separate bedrooms in their Cheshire mansion but they try to keep family life as normal as possible.

Christine said: ‘There hasn’t been an awful lot of change because we are a family, regardless of what’s between me and Patrick. We’re still in the family home, we’re still raising the children together. We’ve got a good understanding of parenting and how important it is for both of us to be in the children’s lives, so we support each other. We both equally want to be there to enjoy those times.’

Christine added that she and Paddy will ‘always put their children first’ and them living together co-parenting is working just fine but she is ‘not sure it’s their long-term plan’ to continue live together.

Christine previously formed a close friendship with footballer Chelcee Grimes, with the pair even pictured kissing in December 2022. The pair have since unfollowed each other on social media.

Sharing her Valentine’s Day plans, the star said she’ll be working throughout the day before returning home to her children.

She added: ‘I don’t want to go into anything where I’m not there wholeheartedly, so I’m more than happy to put love on the backburner.’

It comes after it was revealed that Christine has hired ‘pitbull’ lawyer Catherine Bedford to fight her corner and help her avoid having to sell the house in rural Cheshire she adores.

Catherine, who has been branded a ‘pitbull’ in American media, is to represent Christine through the divorce, it has been claimed.

A source told The Sun: ‘Christine really wanted to work with a woman during her divorce and Catherine is one of the best in the business.

‘Christine wants to stay in the house she’s lived in as a family for many years. She’s poured many hours of love, care and attention into it.

‘It would be heartbreaking to have to leave the property after all this time and uproot her life.’

They revealed they had separated nearly two years ago.

But Paddy McGuinness and his estranged wife Christine showed they are still on friendly terms, as he shared a snap of them playing footsie.

The TV presenter, 50, and the model, 35, split in the summer of 2022, after 11 years of marriage and welcoming three kids.

He snapped a photo of him putting his socked foot up against Christine’s bare foot, while sat on the couch in their living room.

Captioning the snap, he explained that they were competing to decide who had the highest arch in their house, asking his fans to decide if it was ‘Mum or Dad?’

Paddy wrote: ‘Strong high arch game in our house but there can be only one! Who takes the [crown]# and the Pes Cavus bragging rights? Mum or Dad? School boy error leaving my socks on. #feet #higharches’.

His post comes after Christine revealed this week why she still lives with Paddy, almost two years on from their separation.

The couple are parents to 10-year-old twins Leo and Penelope, and Felicity, seven, who all have autism, and Christine told The Sun’s Fabulous Magazine that their children have ‘always come first.’.

She explained that they remain at the heart of every decision since the breakdown of their marriage.

Revealing that Paddy’s busy schedule diary means he is away from home a lot, Christine said she wants to keep life as normal as possible for their children.

She said: ‘The same as when I was his wife, I’m there to support the children when he goes out to work – that’s how it is.

‘When he comes back, that’s when I’ll try to put some of my work in. It doesn’t affect the children because they’re not moving anywhere.’

She explained that the children being in the same bed and in the house means nothing will change for them.

Asked whether she’s considered dating again after the split, Christine admitted she ‘still doesn’t really feel single’ as she and Paddy are still living together.

She added that she currently ‘doesn’t feel like there’s anything missing in her life,’ and there is nothing about dating that ‘excites her.

In December, Paddy indicated he was preparing for an expensive process, admitting that he was going back on tour for the first time in six years, because his ‘money has run out’.

The presenter made the tour announcement following the news that the show he co-hosted, Top Gear, was being axed after Freddie Flintoff’s crash.

Paddy admitted that he has spent a fair chunk of his cash and he plans to ‘build it back up’ by going back on the comedy circuit.

Christine says they remain at the heart of every decision since the breakdown of their 11-year marriage in the summer of 2022, as she says she doesn’t want them affected

The comedian shared the revelation during an appearance on Wednesday’s This Morning with Emma Willis and Rylan Clark.

When asked why he decided on the tour, Paddy said: ‘Erm, well the money’s run out now so it took about eight years to spend it all and I’m like, ‘I’ve got to build it back up’.

‘So weirdly, writing a tour does take a lot of your time. When we had the break from Top Gear, I’d been planning it for a long time, I went, ‘There’s a window there’.’

Paddy announced the news of his tour earlier this week on his Instagram page, telling fans: ‘I’ve been itching to tell you this!

‘After a six year break I’m finally back on Tour!!! Paddy McGuinness – Nearly There. All pre ticket sale links in my Bio. See you in the New Year… live!!!!’
