Paddy McGuinness has opened up about his ‘glorious’ birthday on social media after going on holiday with ex-wife Christine McGuinness.
Former Top Gear presenter Paddy and model Christine initially tied the knot in 2011 in a lavish Cheshire ceremony surrounded by their family and friends.
Fans of the famous couple were left stunned in 2022 when they announced their split after over a decade as a married couple.
Christine is currently looking to find love again on Celebs Go Dating, with her featuring in the current season airing on E4.
Together, Paddy and Christine share three children together; twins Leo and Penelope, and their younger sister Felicity.
Taking to Instagram on Friday (August 15), Paddy shared a series of photos from their family holiday to Spain, with the This Morning presenter turning 52 on Thursday (August 14).
Leading the collection of photos was one of Paddy topless in just a pair of black shorts as he showed off his muscular physique.

Another photo saw Paddy and Christine posing with airport staff as the former couple continue to co-parent together in the wake of their split.
Paddy captioned the post: “Just got back from a glorious five days in the sunshine. My kids made birthday gifts, we had lots of lovely food, drink and a tan that would made @jamie.redknapp proud!
“Met some wonderful families at @zafirohotels and had a belting, relaxed time. Big shout out to the mighty @manairportuk, in particular Samantha Richardson and Jane McBride. Two wonderful ladies who made a last minute check in stress free. They put all our kids at ease.
“The lanyard scheme worked both at Manchester and Palma coming back. Back home now, chippy tea and an early night for everyone!!!.”
Meanwhile, Christine opened up about how she’s looking to move on from her and Paddy’s relationship on the season premiere of Celebs Go Dating.
“I feel like I’m a couple of steps away from being my new self and not ‘Paddy’s wife’. I’m coming out of the transition part.
“I am single and I absolutely do love women. I’d love to explore that more and I definitely see that’s where I’m more comfortable,” the mum-of-three said.
She later added: “I’ll always love him as the father of my children, I think he’ll be the only man I’ll ever love. A lot of people make mistakes and mess up, when you are a couple who is quite well-known in the industry then obviously everyone knows your business…
“In some ways, I still carry that feeling of it’s my fault because I ended it. We had an amazing 15 years, we really did. The last couple of years, I think things weren’t quite the same.
“I think once the respect isn’t quite there any more, it’s time to leave. It was the hardest decision I’ve ever made in my life and it forever will be.”
