Paddy and Christine McGuinness announce they are separating after 11 years of marriage

Paddy and Christine McGuinness have said they are separating after 11 years of marriage. The couple have been together for 15 years in total and have three children.

Christine who starred in Real Housewives of Cheshire, and Paddy, who hosts Top Gear on BBC, made the announcement on Instagram today, MirrorOnline reports. The joint statement said: "We hadn't planned on sharing this publicly until we were ready but the lack of privacy surrounding our personal life, we feel left with no other option but to clarify.

"A while ago we took the difficult decision to separate but our main focus was as always is to continue loving and supporting our children. This was not an easy decision to make but we're moving forward as the best parents we can be for our three beautiful children. We'll always be a loving family, we still have a great relationship and still live happily in our family home together."
