Since her split from Paddy McGuinness in 2022, Christine McGuinness has been exploring new relationships, including rumored romances with singer Chelcee Grimes and DJ Roxxxan. At 36, Christine credits her children for inspiring her to live more openly and embrace her journey, describing herself as “much more open-minded and free.”
Reflecting on her three kids, twins Leo and Penelope, 11, and Felicity, 8, Christine says they’ve helped her see life with a fresh perspective. “I look at my three children and see how free-spirited they are. They made me look in the mirror and think I can be that free as well,” she told Daily Star Sunday. Inspired by their natural confidence, Christine now feels empowered to choose her path and whom she spends time with, describing this newfound openness as “liberating.”
Despite her divorce, Christine and Paddy are cohabiting in their £2.1 million mansion in Cheshire to co-parent their children, who are yet unaware of the split. Christine hopes her kids will one day understand her decision, sharing, “I want them to know they can start again and they will be fine.”
Christine, who has been seen publicly with DJ Roxxxan and previously linked with Chelcee Grimes, says dating has been enjoyable, although she isn’t ready to commit fully to a relationship. “I’m dating and really happy,” she shared, explaining her focus remains on her children and career.
Her rumored ex Chelcee recently hinted at some frustration on Instagram, remarking on being kept a “secret” for nearly two years. For Christine, though, this chapter of life seems to be about balancing personal freedom with her role as a mother, emphasizing openness, confidence, and living authentically.
