Christine McGuinness shows off back garden so big it looks like a park – at £2.1m mansion she shares with ex Paddy
CHRISTINE McGuinness showed off her back garden, that’s so big it looked like a park, at the £2.1m mansion she shares with her ex-husband Paddy.
After 11 years of marriage the pair called it quits back in July 2022.
Now, the Real Housewives of Cheshire star has taken to Instagram to share snaps of the massive outdoor area attached to her lavish pad.
On a sunny day, Christine panned the video across the space, showing grey decking sofas next to a set of stairs leading to the grassy area of the garden.
The grass area of the garden looked neat and extended far, with the entire area surrounded by trees.
The stone tiles that ran through the garden separated the greenery from the seating area nicely.
Christine then shared another snap where she swayed on her hammock, sipping her drink while admiring the lovely views from her garden.
Previously, Christine and Paddy said they aimed to be the “best parents they could be” following their separation as they co-parented their three children – twins Leo and Penelope, eight, and Felicity, five.
They told in their statement last year how the Cheshire mansion would remain their family home and said: “We’ll always be a loving family, we still have a great relationship and still live happily in our family home together.”
The pair spent months together in the luxury mansion during the Coronavirus pandemic.
Lockdown was a difficult time from the family of five due to so many disruptions to their routine.
About lockdown, Christine said: “The things we used to bicker about was mainly how much he would be away from home or if I wanted to work and couldn’t because he was away, it was like little things whereas now we’re both stay at home parents.
“We’re both doing the same amount of cooking, cleaning, childcare, bedtimes, so there’s nothing really to argue about. But don’t get me wrong, I want him to go back to work!”
Christine and Paddy still live together despite their split. They’ve continued to co-parent together in one space whilst they take care of their kids who all have autism.
It has since been revealed that Paddy has started going on dates with other people.
The former Top Gear host told The Mirror: “I tried a couple of dates last year – After twelve months of adjusting to life on my own I felt I should give it a try rather than really wanting to. For now I’m happy being single.”
He added: “For now, we’re happy with how things are, living together and helping each other balance work and kids.”
