Christine and Paddy McGuinness have been living together for the sake of their children after their separation in June 2022, which followed 11 years of marriage. The couple shares three children, all of whom are autistic, and have been trying to maintain a stable environment for them.
As Christine recently celebrated her 38th birthday on March 20, 2026, she has also been navigating her new life post-separation. Reports indicate that she has started dating someone new, adding another layer to the evolving family dynamics.
Meanwhile, the couple is facing difficulties in selling their £6.5 million Cheshire mansion, which has been on the market for over a year. Christine has expressed frustration over the inflated price of their home, stating, “It is so overpriced, Paddy doesn’t want to sell which seems like another tactic by him.” This situation highlights the ongoing tensions between the former couple.
Paddy McGuinness is reportedly refusing to drop the asking price of the mansion, which complicates the sale. The property was originally purchased for £2.1 million, leaving a significant gap between the purchase price and the current asking price.
Christine has acknowledged Paddy’s work ethic, saying, “I think he is a really hard worker, and he has always been a grafter.” However, the couple’s differing views on the property sale reflect deeper issues in their post-marriage relationship.
As they navigate these challenges, observers are keen to see how the situation will unfold, particularly regarding the sale of the mansion and their co-parenting arrangement. Both parties are expected to continue addressing their personal and financial issues in the coming months.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding any potential changes to their living arrangements or further developments in their personal lives.
