Christine McGuinness takes subtle swipe at ex Paddy with post about taking off her wedding ring
CHRISTINE McGuinness has taken a subtle swipe at ex Paddy in a post after taking off her wedding ring following their split.
Model Christine, 37, has unveiled a new gorgeous ring three years after her split from Radio 2 presenter Paddy.
The couple announced their split in 2022 after 11 years of marriage and three children.
Christine has now revealed she commissioned a bespoke ring featuring three huge diamonds to represent each of her kids, twins Leo and Penelope, 12, and 9-year-old Felicity.
The three diamonds are unique in shape and are connected via one silver band, with Christine sharing photos of the extraordinary jewellery on Instagram.
She wrote alongside the snaps: “Three diamonds, three babies, three reasons my heart shines.
“Different shapes, same sparkle, all beautifully unique just like my children.
“A new chapter, a new ring, one for each of them a love that never ends.
“It took three years to find the perfect piece but they were worth every moment.”
In a subtle reference to her divorce, Christine added: “Not a wedding ring.
She added: “But a forever ring for the little loves who fill my heart everyday.
“Thank you for creating this beautiful, unique, very special ring @luxury_watches_and_jewellery”
Paddy and Christine were together for 15 years, and she continues to live in the home they shared with the kids.
During their divorce proceedings, it was ruled that Paddy, 52, will be able to keep the £2.5million mansion they both call home.
But in an unexpected twist, it was ruled that Christine and their kids could continue living in the seven-bedroom Cheshire home, which has a gym and swimming pool.
Christine and their kids have autism, and she reportedly didn’t want to uproot their kids from the house they grew up in.
Paddy told The Sun he and Christine still spend Christmas together for the sake of their three children.
Asked if he and Christine spend Christmas Day together, Paddy, 52, replied: “Of course, because both of our families are our children’s relatives. Our children are always happy to see all of our family.
“Luckily for us it’s a nice vibe in our household so there’s never anything where the children feel anything negative whatsoever.
“I think most parents who have separated want what’s best for the children.”
