CHRISTINE McGuinness is reportedly growing close to a Strictly star and Olympian after opening up about having sex with women for the first time.
Mum-of-three Christine, 38, who finalised her divorce from ex-Top Gear host Paddy, 52, in 2024, is getting close to Olympic boxing star Nicola Adams, 43, according to The Mail.
Christine and Nicola attended The DIVA Awards 2026 recently, which is an event which celebrates the achievements of LGBTQIA women and non-binary people.
An onlooker told the paper: “They were inseparable and looked like they were a couple.”
The pair now also follow each other on social media.
Nicola split from her partner of seven years, Ella Baig, in March 2025.

The Sun reached out to both Christine and Nicola’s representatives for comment, but they did not immediately respond.
This comes after Christine opened up about dating women last week.
“I would love to have a wife one day,” Christine explains on new podcast It Started With A Kiss.
“Not like a legalised marriage, but like a blessing, a celebration of love.
“I’ve been there, done it, spent an absolute fortune and probably aged about ten years throughout it all.
“I don’t want to do that again.
“I would love to just be saying, ‘This is my wife.’”
Elsewhere in her chat, Christine said: “I’m a sucker for a stud and a masc.
“I swear they come for me.
“This one date, well, it wasn’t a date, it was when I did the whole hotel thing and not the whole date thing.
“Because I didn’t want to ever just meet someone and it just be sex, but then kind of did find myself in a place in life where I was like, ‘Do you know what? I actually do just want to do that.’
“I’ve been married, I’ve had situationships, I was single, I was celibate for six months, and with all of that, I just had a moment of, ‘Do you know what, I wouldn’t mind just meeting up with someone and just seeing how it goes.’
“So I got to this hotel and I’m thinking, ‘This is just sex, it’s fine.’
“She was very, very beautiful, like that perfect, pretty, handsome, like masc stud type woman, really gorgeous, dark skin, like she had everything.”
Christine adds: “We’re just chatting away and she said that she was a Gold Star Lesbian.
“So I’m like, love that, love a Gold Star Lesbian.
“I went, ‘Stop . . . because you might be a Gold Star Lesbian, but I’m a Five Star Lesbian.’”
Of her first kiss, Christine is just as open, saying: “The first time I kissed a woman, again after my husband and no disrespect to him, it had been a while.
“I remember that first kiss just being so soft and so nice and so feminine.
“I knew I always felt it and it wasn’t something that I was worried about never doing again because when I married, I married for life, genuinely.
“But I was really happy that I was doing it again.
“And I’m really happy that now I am dating women again and that I am having fun.
“I’ve got some of the best stories, some of the wildest memories, like the craziest experiences that only I and one other person would ever know.”
Christine chose to speak about wanting to date men and women after signing up to E4 TV series Celebs Go Dating in April last year.
It came after Christine and Paddy announced their separation in 2022.
