Christine McGuinness has opened up about her latest 'situationship', expressing concerns it could become toxic. The model and TV star, who split from husband Paddy McGuinness in 2022 after over a decade of marriage, shared her dating experiences on the podcast 'Situationships with Sophie and Christine'.
Speaking about her current relationship, she said: 'Before I started this situationship I'm in now, we were talking a lot and I was very aware that a lot of the stuff I was sharing that we had in common that it could potentially build a trauma bond because I've done it previously. That's the last bond I'd like to build with someone because it's almost toxic.'
Christine, who is autistic, also discussed the challenges of dating with autism. She admitted she worries about her children, who are also diagnosed, and explained the importance of being upfront about her needs. 'I find that that now is absolutely necessary for me to say rather than to just go and be in a place that I don't really like or don't feel comfortable,' she said.
The star previously appeared on E4's 'Celebs Go Dating' but quit halfway through, stating she preferred to date in a more natural environment. She is now focusing on finding love in 2026.
