Christine McGuinness confesses she saw 'a sex show' on her first date after split from her ex husband Paddy
Christine McGuinness has confessed she saw 'a sex show' during her first date after her split from her ex Paddy as she opened up about blurring the lines with her friends while she was single. The TV personality and Paddy separated in 2022 after 11 years of marriage, but continue to live together in their shared home for the sake of their three children - twins Leo and Penelope, and Felicity. Speaking on her podcast, Situationships with Sophie and Christine, the blonde beauty explained that after months of talking to a woman, she finally agreed to travel down to London. And while she said she 'planned everything so nothing could go wrong' she was hit with a few surprises as she says she accidentally saw a 'sex show'. She said: 'We went to a private members club because I was trying to keep it private because it takes time to know someone and I didn't want to be seen out and linked with another tree or a lamppost and just thrown into a situationship. 'So we went on the date and it was absolutely gorgeous, it just went so well, we laughed all night and it went so well. 'We kissed and it was just amazing and then I needed to go to the loo. She had been to this place before and I hadn't so she was like come and I'll show you where they are. 'So I have gone to the loo, come back out and there is like this glass walkway going back to the table where we were and through the glass walk way there is a hotel and you can see this hotel room and it is literally like two meters away from where we were stood and I've looked around there was a couple there having a full on sex show like right next to us. 'They're having the time of their life, they are clearly not on a first date and have been there for a while but it was like a whole performance but I couldn't not look and she went "omg" and carried on walking. 'I was stood there like '"I don't know if this should be turning me on or if I should be doing this". it felt quite naughty because it felt like I shouldn't be watching.'' Christine also explained that before this date she had got involved with some situationships with her friends. 'So when I first separated a few years ago from my ex husband, it took my a while to even think about dating but I just naturally some situationships were friendships and had blurred the lines and I had done that', she added. Her first date reveal comes after she explained to Elizabeth Day on her How To Fail podcast, that her ex-husband and family have known about her sexuality since she was little and it was 'never a secret'. She opened up about how she was dating women, including one two-year 'situationship', before she met Paddy, and admits she wants a connection for herself and not a step-parent for her children. She told the broadcaster: 'It shouldn't matter somebody's gender. It never mattered to me, which was why once me and my ex-husband were separated and I met people, I didn't properly date. 'It was more like blurred the lines of friendships for me, that was normal. It felt comfortable because I'd done that as a teenager and I, as a teenager, I dated both men and women. My ex-husband knew. My family knew. It was never a secret for me.' When asked if she has a label for her sexuality, Christine said she has thought about it but would consider herself more of a 'free spirit'. When asked about labels, Christine explained: 'No and again, I've thought about it. A lot of people always ask me, are you a lesbian? Are you bisexual? Are you what? Is this a phase? 'I've always been quite a free spirit. I think that's the only word I would put on it. When I was a teenager, I'd dated boys and girls. 14/15 was probably when I had my first kisses with, with both, and I never felt it was anything different or a big deal. 'Then I think where I grew up, everyone was kind of just there for a good time.' Christine explained that before Paddy she did date women and her longest relationship latest around two years. 'My longest was two years before I met my ex-husband and then I've had really, really lovely long situation shifts where we purposely haven't put a label on anything', she added. 'But my experiences with women have been lovely and It's not like women are better or worse. 'It's simply that the connection for me is different. I need a connection now. I need something different. 'I really, really, honestly, I love my family and Patrick is part of my family and he always, always will be. But now for my next relationship, I know what I want and I want someone for me. 'I want someone that I like spending time with, we can do stuff together that we both enjoy. I want that emotional connection where I can be open and I can talk and I can be vulnerable and I can ask for help, but I can also have a laugh and just have a good time. 'It's not like I'm trying to find a new family unit or someone to come in and be a stepparent. I want my next relationship to be for me.'

Christine McGuinness opens up on her sexuality as she talks about JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes' relationship
CHRISTINE McGuinness has opened up on her sexuality, while talking about JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes' relationship. The star recently revealed how she has dated girls since she was a teenager. 5 5 And Christine, 37, who was married to TV presenter Paddy McGuinness for 11 years, also stated that her "sexuality is not a secret". Now, the mum-of-three has backed US and Big Brother star JoJo Siwa, saying she shouldn't have to 'explain' her sexuality. The Dance Moms star, 22, recently confirmed that she's in a relationship with Big Brother co-star Chris Hughes. And after revealing she was no longer a lesbian in the CBB compound during the show's live stream she said she now wants to identify as queer. Christine said: 'Let them live. I've sort of gone through, not that situation, but similar. 'Being in the public eye and feeling the need to explain your sexuality which I don't think anyone needs to at all. JoJo is so young, she's growing and learning like we all are. Life changes.' Christine continued to tell the Situationship podcast : 'One of the best things about being an adult is that you can change your mind at any time. JoJo, I think she's always been open about the fact she's queer and that's how she refers to herself. 'She loves whoever she loves and it's not necessarily about gender. Although I don't put a label on myself, it kind of is how I feel. ''Because she's been out there so much as an advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community, I think some of them feel let down that she's now… JoJo Siwa says she'll NEVER break up with Chris Hughes saying their relationship is 'earthquake proof' 'I just think, it's not anybody's business. It's called private life for a reason. People think you're in the public eye and we're entitled to know what you're up to. I've had it the last couple of years and it's not nice.' The star ended by saying: 'Sexuality has been a big part of it and it shouldn't be. Two people have met and they're really happy and they're exploring whether it's a friendship or a relationship.' During a private chat in the bedroom on Big Brother, JoJo confessed: "I feel so queer," as co-star Danny Beard then responded: "I'm queer!" And in a recent interview, she told how the phrase "encompasses how I am, and who I am". JoJo Siwa and Kath Ebbs' relationship We look back at JoJo Siwa's romance with Kath Ebbs: JoJo Siwa went public with hers and Kath Ebbs' relationship in January 2025. The Dance Moms star had been introduced to 27-year-old Australian content creator Kath by a mutual friend called G-Flip six months earlier. JoJo had split with her girlfriend Dakayla Wilson in November 2024 and it is believed she hooked up romantically with Kath soon after. Speaking in March at the 36th Annual GLAAD Media Awards, JoJo said of her relationship: 'I am so happy. I am in a very mature relationship, and it's beautiful. It's taught me so much about life. 'It's taught me so much about love and respect, and it's a beautiful thing. 'It's different in more ways than I can count. I wouldn't even know what to say the biggest is 'cause just everything is so different and special.' Kath even claimed they had talked about marriage together. However, JoJo's romance with Kath abruptly hit the skids on April 25, 2025, at the Celebrity Big Brother wrap party. JoJo dumped Kath at the bash after spending 19 days in the CBB house - where she had grown close to Love Island star Chris Hughes. She added: "I do live this very, very big public life that has so many eyeballs on it, and it can get really hard to navigate. "But I'm also living a human life. You can't help who you love." The term queer is defined by LGBTQ charity Stonewall as "a term used by those wanting to reject specific labels of sexual orientation and/or gender identity". 5

'Their friendship goes as far back as 2019, when Jac was heading Down Under to the I'm A Celeb jungle, when they had a brilliant night out at a fund-raising gala in London. 'They stayed in touch sporadically and would bump into each other at events and their messages got pretty flirty. 'Some were seen by mutual friends. 'She would call him 'D' in texts and it became an open secret among their circles. 'There is no suggestion anything sexual happened, but it's fair to say there was a spark between them.' Former Towie star Dan is adamant nothing happened romantically between the pair, even suggesting that the text messages between them were 'deep fakes or AI' when asked. A pal said: 'Dan is devoted to Jacqueline and would hate for any suggestion of impropriety. 'Of course, it's possible for a man and woman to be mates.' Despite this, Dan has reportedly sent grovelling messages to Jacqueline – with whom he's trying to repair his marriage to – after the news broke.

Bolton's Paddy McGuinness has reflected on his 'chin wag with Julia Roberts' yesterday following the Soccer Aid charity match. Paddy McGuinness posed with celebrity pals such as Tom Hiddleston, Wayne Rooney and Bella Ramsey this weekend following the Soccer Aid charity football match. Taking to his Instagram, Paddy said: "Yesterday I was having a chin wag with Julia Roberts. Today I'm eating Spag Bol out of a plastic tray.I love this game!!! 😄" The comedian and TV presenter, Paddy joined this year's England team along with former Manchester United player Gary Neville and singer Tom Grennan. The star also took to jokingly issuing a police appeal on his social media account with footballer Carlos Tevez, addressing his followers: 'Police are looking to contact this man in connection with an assault that took place in the Old Trafford area of Manchester last night. 'We urge members of the public not to approach him.' Paddy's performance at the charity matches left fans divided. READ MORE: Taking to social media, one commenter said: 'You did your best Paddy, great match and great entertainment!' Another added: 'Bloody hell Paddy I know it was a charity game but that's the worst performance from a goalkeeper I've seen at the Stratford End since Onanas last outing.' A third chimed in: 'Hope you don't get too much stick. A former world class striker that took the game way too serious scored 4 past a comedian playing a charity game. There was always only going to be one winner here.' The match raised £15,280,163 for UNICEF's vital work helping children grow up safe, healthy and able to play. This year, with thanks to the Children's Investment Fund Foundation, every donation made up to £5 million was doubled.

The match ended 5-4 to World XI FC, stealing the win back and keeping the overall lead with 8-6 wins since the inaugural 2006 match.
