Christine McGuinness launches furious rant after ex-husband Paddy's Channel 4 exit

Christine McGuinness launches furious rant after ex-husband Paddy's Channel 4 exit

Mum-of-three Christine McGuinness was left 'speechless' by ex-husband Paddy's claim that he quit a Channel 4 show to care for their kids

Despite having remained more than amicable co-parents since they unexpectedly parted ways last year, Christine McGuinness this week launched a furious rant after her ex Paddy dropped out of a Channel 4 show.

You can see listen to her cryptic, expletive-ridden tirade below:

Taking to Instagram, the mum-of-three claimed she'd been left 'speechless, mindblown, not shocked,' by upsetting news she caught wind of this morning.

Though Christine, 35, avoided going into detail about what exactly had triggered her furious tirade, her outburst comes just hours after ex Paddy claimed he'd made the decision to temporarily step down from the Channel 4 show Don't Look Down as there was no one available at home to care for their three children.

Former Take Me Out host Paddy, 50, told how he was forced to take a week off filming for the Stand Up To Cancer special series because the former couple had no childcare arranged for their youngsters.

"Unfortunately today I've got to go home and I might not be back for at least a week," Paddy explained on the show. "Co-parenting… We've no one at all to help us with the kids.

"With our children, they need me or Christine there or people who are in our support network."

Paddy announced he had to leave the Channel 4 show.

Former husband and wife Paddy and Christine are parents to twins Penelope and Leo, nine, and seven-year-old Felicity - all of whom have autism.

Paddy continued: "I'm gutted because the guys will be 10 metres up in the air and it will feel like starting again but there's just nothing I can do about it."

Yesterday (25 October) however, Real Housewives of Cheshire star Christine has filmed herself slamming 'some absolutely b*****s' she'd recently read, uploading the furious rant to her Instagram story.

Not mentioning Paddy by name, Christine hit out: "Just hold on a minute.... Wow. I just read some absolute b*****s. I mean, I'm like, yeah.

"Speechless, mindblown, not shocked, but I will just sit here and keep my dignified silence."

She continued: "What a load of s***e. Do you know this Halloween I'm going to turn up as someone who's totally got their s*** together - nobody is going to know it's me."

The former model later shared a quote, which read: "Feels good to have your s*** together. Personally I wouldn't know but I bet it feels good."

Christine and Paddy left their fans heartbroken in July last year after breaking the news of their separation.

"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," they explained in a joint statement.

"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."

The couple added at the time: "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.

"We hope this now draws a line under anymore unwanted and unnecessary intrusion into our private life.

"Although we work in the public eye we ask kindly if you could respect our wishes for privacy on this matter. We'll be making no further comment."
