PADDY & CHRISTINE ARE ‘DESPERATE TO SAVE THEIR MARRIAGE’

-

They posted a T loved-up selfie on their family holiday last week as Paddy Mcguinness and his wife Christine Martin put on a united front following the presenter’s controvers­ial night out with All Saints singer Nicole Appleton in February, which led to a marriage crisis between them.

And pals say Paddy, 44, and Christine, 30 – who have Felicity, one, and four-yearold twins, Leo and Penelope, who have been diagnosed with autism – are going allout to get their seven-yearmarria­ge back on track.

A source says, “Paddy and Christine have been making their relationsh­ip a priority for the first time since the twins were born – escaping for romantic date nights and making sure they spend some quality time together without the kids so they can focus solely on reconnecti­ng with one another. They’re desperate to save their marriage.”

Christine recently revealed her fears that their third child, Felicity, was showing signs of autism, adding, “It’s been difficult recently.”

And Take Me Out host Paddy encouraged other parents of autistic children “not to give up hope” as they spent their first family getaway at Ribby Hall Village, near Preston, over the Easter weekend.

The source adds, “Paddy and Christine’s devotion to their children has made their bond even stronger and they’re both committed to making their marriage work both for them and for their family as a whole.

“They’ve had a bumpy couple of months and know the road ahead won’t be smooth, but they feel stronger than ever and are even talking about renewing their vows at some point in the future.”
