Christine McGuinness has shared photos from a break away with Chelcee Grimes.

The mum-of-three was married to Top Gear star Paddy McGuinness, however they announced in July 2022 they had parted ways.

They remain on good terms however, and still live together as they co-parent their kids, who Christine has previously said are oblivious to their separation.

In recent months Christine has spent a lot of time with singer Chelcee after the pair forged a firm friendship on ITV reality competition The Games, and have been spotted kissing and holding hands on nights out and holidays away.

The duo recently enjoyed a trip to Amsterdam with friends, and Christine has now shared sweet snaps of them cuddled up together along with a powerful message.

In a series of photos posted to Instagram, Chelcee and Christine can be seen walking arm-in-arm through the streets, going out for dinner and exploring the city.

And in another they are seen laughing together, Christine moving towards the crook of Chelcee’s neck while the singer sticks out her tongue.

Alongside the snaps, Christine posted a quote which reads: ‘The most wonderful moment in a woman’s life is when she realizes she can do whatever she wants, and she doesn’t owe anyone an explanation, and she doesn’t need anyone’s permission.

‘She’s just living. And it’s beautiful.’

Friends and fans of the star flocked to the comments to wish Christine well, with presenter Antonella Brollini declaring: ‘I love happy on you! 😍 I love you happy!’

Instagram user Gorman7190 agreed they were ‘fab photos Christine and most importantly you look happy,’ with Ryyansmiggysmallz adding ‘looks like you had an amazing time lovely to see you so happy all the time.’

It’s been a difficult few years for Christine and Paddy, however a source recently told New Magazine the former couple ‘are stronger than ever as co-parents – they have put the hurt behind them and are making things work for the children.’

The statement announcing their split came in July 2022, which read: ‘A while ago we took the difficult decision to separate but our main focus as always is to continue loving and supporting our children.

‘This was not an easy decision to make but we’re moving forward as the best parents we can be for our three beautiful children.

‘We’ll always be a loving family, we still have a great relationship and still live happily in our family home together.’

And they’ve stayed true to their word, as the pair recently attended their children’s sports day together.
