ITV The Games: Christine McGuinness' ADHD diagnosis, children and family life

Christine McGuinness, model and wife of comic Paddy McGuinness, is no stranger to the spotlight. She began her career as a teenager, when she won beauty pageants and went on to be crowned Miss Commonwealth at just 19-years-old.

It was the now 34-year-old's profession that led her to meet husband Paddy, who she has been married to for 11 years. The pair met while Christine was doing a fashion show for Cricket at a Liverpool Tennis Tournament. The loved-up couple have three children together; eight-year-old twins Penelope and Leo and six-year-old Felicity.

But life hasn't always been glamourous for the model - Christine, who has appeared in The Real Housewives of Cheshire, started her life in the Lancashire seaside resort of Blackpool before moving to Halewood where she spent years on a council estate.
