Later on Thursday night they went to another nearby hotel. Paddy, 52, hosts a weekly Sunday show on Radio Two – where Emma works – and last week he was staying in London as he stood-in as a presenter on ITV1’s This Morning. An onlooker said: “Paddy looked so at ease with her. It was obvious they are incredibly comfortable together, and they laughed a lot.

Paddy looked like the cat that got the cream.” Paddy, who presented ITV dating show Take Me Out, split from his model wife Christine, 38 in 2022. Christine recently said Paddy had told her when he was going to go on a date. In addition to her BBC Radio Two publicity job, Emma advertises on Instagram yoga sessions and £2,000 wellness retreats in Thailand. She has an array of snaps on social media sites showing off her flexible skills in far-flung destinations. Paddy and Christine have both spoken openly of trying to rebuild their lives and seek out new partners following the end of their 11 years of marriage. Now divorced, they continue to share the family home while co-parenting their three children. They planned to buy two smaller properties and sell their £6.5million Cheshire mansion, but with no buyer, they decided to stay together under the same roof. Christine, who starred in The Real Housewives Of Cheshire from 2018 to 2020, told The Sun: “I thought it would be a short-term plan, but it works better than we thought it could. “Publicly, the house is up for sale. Privately, we’ve discussed more and more that we actually think this really works. “Patrick and I get on, and we always have done. We still have a relationship as co-parents; we respect each other and make it work. Emma, who is also a yoga teacher, accompanied Paddy throughout his week-long stay in London while he was presenting on This Morning Credit: Instagram On Thursday night, Paddy and Emma went to another hotel Credit: MJ-Pictures.com “Patrick has the top floor, the children and I are below. He comes in and out of my room; I go in and out of his room, we all share the living room. “I know a lot of people struggle to get their heads around it, but it works for us.” Christine, who was recently seen in E4 television series Celebs Go Dating, said: “When we were married, Patrick would sometimes use the top floor when he had to leave the house early, at 5am. It became more and more his room at the top. “It’s just carried on from there. Buying two other properties is a massive commitment. Instead of leaping forward with it, we’re doing stepping stones. “Perhaps in the future, I can have a little flat, a base with my toothbrush in it. “I was madly in love with Patrick, and I’ll always have love for him.” Christine and Paddy, who share twins Penelope and Leo, 13, and Felicity, nine, finalised their divorce in October 2024. Before meeting comedian Paddy – who also presented BBC’s Inside the Factory this year, and Top Gear from 2019 to 2022 – Christine had relationships with women. And since they split up, she has dated other women. Christine became close to Olympic champion boxer Nicola Adams and was photographed kissing DJ Roxanne Conway. She said: “I wouldn’t consider a relationship with a man. “I’ve barely been approached by a man. Subconsciously, I shook that off. I only want to date women now. There’s a flame, a fire I feel when I’m around certain women, and I love it. “The whole experience is a lot more intense; that’s what I like about it. I say to myself, I’m obsessed; I have to check myself: am I really feeling this, am I just running away with the dopamine? “I think the passion and intimacy is what I love the most about dating women. I find women attractive; the whole experience is different. I would love to refer to someone as my wife one day. But the whole dating world is daunting.” During their turbulent marriage, in February 2018, Paddy was pictured on a night out with All Saints singer Nicole Appleton. Christine later spoke about how difficult that period was for their marriage. But last October, Paddy said he was not dating as he opened up about his life post-divorce. Asked if he was “back in the dating world”, the star said: “No, I’m sort of concentrating fully on work and providing for my kids, like most parents.” He said of co-parenting: “Good – great – all nice and bonny. It’s absolutely fine.” In 2024 he sparked rumours of a new romance after sharing a mysterious post on social media. The snap on his Instagram stories featured two mugs of tea, humorously labelled ‘His and Hers’. And a year earlier, Paddy was spotted out with TV presenter Kirsty Gallacher in London’s Soho. In a candid chat with Vicky Pattison on her podcast last year, Christine said Paddy is very honest, adding: “We talk an awful lot and we’re very open. “He has said to me when he’s been going on a date. We still live in the same house. But I think both of us right now we are very much in the same place, where we’re just like, we just don’t really know what to do or where to go.” The Sun on Sunday contacted Paddy McGuinness and Emma Carey for comment.
