Paddy McGuinness insists 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.

Model Christine, 36, 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, 50, claims he will 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.'
