Christine McGuinness is all smiles as she steps out in denim jacket and tight gym leggings

Christine McGuinness showed off her enviable figure as she stepped out in sunny Manchester on Wednesday.

The model and mother of three, 35, showed up in good spirits as she flashed her winning smile for the cameras and made her way around town.

She showed off her toned figure in a pair of tight gray gym leggings and a white T-shirt.

Christine opted for a denim jacket and paired the look with trendy beige Converse sneakers.

Christine carried her belongings, carried a white Prada bag and shielded herself from the sun with stylish black sunglasses.

The beauty naturally straightened her blonde locks and kept the rest of her look understated as she enjoyed a casual day out.

It comes after Christine opened up about her unusual living arrangement with ex-husband Paddy McGuinness earlier this month, admitting ‘I don’t know life without him’.

The beauty and the presenter announced their divorce in June last year, after 11 years of marriage and three children.

However, they have revealed that they have continued to live with their children in an effort to protect them.

To talk with OK! magazineChristine spoke about the arrangement and said she didn’t know how long it would take.

She said, “It’s certainly not a long-term or forever plan. It works now because we are both so busy and we are in and out of the house so we tend to trade and share days.

“It’s really like any parent: juggling jobs and kids. We definitely don’t want to upset them or change anything too quickly, and neither do I.

“I like slow changes, and we’re fine — we’re family. I’ve known Paddy for 15 years so I don’t know life without him. It is what it is.’

She added, “He’s glad I found a place where I feel comfortable. He was very proud of my book and my documentary. He watched it and loved it, and said he was very happy that I was not only working, but making a big difference.

“It’s good that he supports me, because I need that. I need to be able to leave happy, knowing the kids are taken care of and safe. It’s partnership and teamwork.’

It comes after Christine appeared on The Jeremy Vine Show last week discussing life with Paddy.

Christine said: ‘It’s been absolutely fine, I don’t know anything but living with him. I don’t remember not living with him, I’ve been with him since I was 19 years old.

“We want to do what’s best for the kids, it’s certainly not a long-term plan. But right now we don’t feel like anything needs to change for me and for the kids. I think slow change is better.

“It’s working out well, we’re both at home and away from home quite often with work, we both have busy schedules so it doesn’t make sense for us to move into separate houses any time soon.” As long as the kids are happy, we’re happy.’

Paddy and Christine have three children together, twins Penelope, and Leo, nine, and Felicity, six.

It came after Christine candidly touched on her family’s dynamic as she described how they embraced their differences.

Christine and TV presenter Paddy continue to live together for the sake of their children and have been open about their co-parenting dynamic in the home.

And continue talking Heart FMs No filter this week, Christine explained, “We’re not really like any other family I know.”

She insisted she doesn’t compare herself to anyone else, with the TV personality also opening up about her autism diagnosis and how that relates to motherhood.

“I like the way we are, I try not to compare myself to any other family because we’re not really like any other family I know,” explained Christine to Heart.

She continued, “So I’m comfortable and I embrace our family as we are, and I love our differences.”

“Each family is unique anyway, but ours is one I’ve never seen on any social media platform before and I’m pretty proud of that.

“I love us, I love the way we are,” she finished.

Christine divorced husband of 11 years Paddy in 2022, with the couple still living in their home to keep things as ‘normal as possible’ for their three children, who are unaware of the breakup.

Her new show, Unmasking My Autism, shares insight and details into her life since being diagnosed with a developmental disability in 2021.

And sharing details during the interview with Hart, she explained, “It’s a positive thing that I’m autistic and my three kids are because we understand each other so much better.

“It’s a blessing and I love it. I know when to time them out and I know they’re not being difficult.’

Paddy and Christine took to Instagram last year to confirm their split and revealed they would continue to live together for the sake of their three autistic children.

In a joint statement, they wrote: “We had no intention of sharing this publicly until we were ready, but after the lack of privacy surrounding our personal lives, we have no choice but to provide clarification.

“A while ago we made the difficult decision to separate, but our main focus as always is to continue to love and support our children.

“This was not an easy decision, but we are moving forward as the best parents we can be to our three beautiful children. We will always be a loving family, we still have a great relationship and still live happily together in our family home.

‘We hope that this will now draw a line under all unwanted and unnecessary invasions of our private lives.

“While we operate in the public eye, we kindly ask that you respect our wishes for privacy in this matter. We will not comment further.’
