Christine McGuinness has revealed that she is working on her marriage to Paddy McGuinness.

The couple hit the headlines last month after the Take Me Out host was pictured on a night out with Nicole Appleton.

But, on Thursday’s Loose Women, Christine revealed that her and Paddy are “happier than ever before”.

She said: “We’re happier than ever right now. It’s great that we are putting the effort in.

“Working at it’s quite good, it’s actually exciting you know.”

But Christine admitted that she has recently started to wish he would stay home more.

She said: “I just wanted to be a full-time stay-at-home mum, that’s what I wanted to do. When the twins were four-days-old I waved my husband off to work, ‘Bye love it’s fine, I’ve got this all under control’ and he fully focused on work which is, again, what we both wanted at the time.

“He provided in that way and I stayed at home looking after the children.

“Only recently I’ve started thinking, ‘Do you know, I wish he would stay at home a bit more’, or I should go with him.”

She finished: “I don’t regret putting all my focus on the children, I just hope that my husband didn’t feel too pushed out, because he needs attention, too. I need attention, too.”

The pair have three children together – four-year-old twins Leo and Penelope and daughter Felicity, who is 18 months old.

Last year, they revealed that their two eldest children have autism and both Christine and Paddy have spoken about coping with the condition.
