Paddy & wife Christine on the rocks for some time
Paddy wife: Sometimes good things fall apart...
PADDY Mcguinness’s marriage may have been in trouble for months, it emerged yesterday.
It came as wife of seven years Christine, 29, was pictured wiping away tears at the wheel of her car.
She tweeted of how she “deserves so much more” after pictures surfaced of Paddy, 44, arm-in-arm with singer Nicole Appleton, 43, after a boozy night out in London last Friday.
Christine and Paddy were last seen in public together in October, at the Daily Mirror’s
Pride of Britain Awards.
A TV source said: “Paddy and Christine haven’t been out at any parties or events together in recent months.
“It had led to some questioning how well the marriage was going.”
Christine still had her wedding ring on as she stepped out in Cheshire yesterday. A pal hugged her as she went to get her hair done in Alderley Edge and she was wiping tears away behind sunglasses back in her car. Take Me Out host Paddy pulled out of appearing on yesterday’s Radio 1 breakfast show with Nick Grimshaw and was silent on social media.
He is close to All Saints star Nicole, previously married to Liam Gallagher. She has liked 124 of Paddy’s Instagram snaps in four months, including ones of him topless. And Paddy liked 31 of her posts in the period, including gym shots.
The pair have also enjoyed flirty exchanges on Twitter. Paddy has been filming The Keith & Paddy Picture Show for ITV in London recently while Christine is in Cheshire with their kids Leo and Penelope, four, and Felicity, one. Their spokesman declined to comment.
