Christine McGuinness kisses Chelcee Grimes after split from Paddy

Christine McGuinness has been spotted kissing musician Chelcee Grimes as the pair enjoyed a sweet outing to Winter Wonderland.

The star, who split from her husband Paddy earlier this year, was previously said to have grown close to Chelcee following the breakup.

In photos obtained by The Sun, the pair can be seen sharing a kiss as they enjoyed drinks at the London attraction.

An onlooker said: ‘It was a sweet moment between Christine and Chelcee as they sat on a bench outside and enjoyed live music.

‘They were wearing similar woolly hats and even had a little dance at one point. They seemed to be living in the moment and soaking up the festive atmosphere.’

They added to the outlet: ‘Christine and Chelcee were both all smiles as they walked off hand-in-hand.’

Christine, 34, and Chelcee, 30, both posted snaps from their outing on social media, showing their haul of stuffed animals after clearly quite a successful go on the ball game stalls.

In a photo Christine posted, the pair can be seen smiling at each other.

The two of them have enjoyed a solid friendship since meeting on ITV’s The Games this year, with footballer Chelcee reportedly acting as ‘support’ for Christine amid the break-up.

Olympics-style competition The Games saw a crop of celebrities take part in a series of events across a week of live broadcasting early in 2022, however despite proving popular with fans it was confirmed to have been axed after just one season.

Christine and Chelcee have also jetted off on multiple holidays abroad, including a trip to Crete earlier this year.

A source also previously gave fans an insight into their friendship, telling The Sun: ‘Christine and Chelcee hit it off straight away and love spending time with each other.

‘They have just enjoyed another sun-filled break together but also hang out a lot at home.’

The source added that Chelcee is a regular at Christine’s home ‘when their schedules allow it and she’s been such a support for her’.

Reality icon Christine and Top Gear star Paddy announced in July that they had separated after 11 years of marriage.

At the time, they explained that they were still living together in the family home, with their ‘main focus’ on continuing ‘loving and supporting our children’.

The former couple share three children: Penelope and Leo, nine, and six-year-old Felicity, each of who have autism, with Christine herself getting diagnosed last year.
