Christine McGuinness shows off bronzed legs in Barbie-pink look after declaring she has 'so much to smile about'

Christine McGuinness has told fans she has 'so much to smile about' in an uplifting update. The model returned to social media after a quiet spell to let her fans and followers know that she was absolutely fine but working on plans that go beyond 2023.

Taking to her Instagram Story, Christine filmed herself talking to the camera as she took the office outside into the garden of her Cheshire home, which she still shares with ex-husband Paddy McGuinness, as the country continues to bask in the sunshine and warm temperatures.

"Helle everyone from my office," she said into the camera. "I have had couple of quiet days on here because I've been working hard topping up my tan," Christine laughed as she flashed the camera down to show off her bronzed body which was partially covered up by a cute outfit.

"I'm only messing. I've been writing, working on something very cute which I'm really excited about," the 35-year-old continued to say. "I've just enjoyed some quiet time at home. I went out today into Alderley Edge, had a wash and blow and a meeting. The meeting was amazing."

She added: "It's been lovely and I feel fortunate and very blessed that I've been able to just do writing in the garden this week." Christine then disappeared as the video came to an end before she posted a snap of her chilling with an ice lolly as she propped up her long, tanned legs on the garden furniture. "Gawjus," she simply typed.

Meanwhile, she also took to her main Instagram with a string of snaps which captured her as she left a local salon. She had earlier been seen posing in the salon as she headed for a mini-pamper.

She looked stunning as she sported an almost-backless white top that tied around her torso which she paired with a pair of pastel pink shorts. She flashed her pearly white teeth to the camera as her blonde locks bounced down her back.

Sharing more images with her 712,000 followers, mum-of-three Christine cheerily said: "Only look back to see how far you’ve come. I had a very exciting meeting today that I still can’t believe is happening. I already love 2024! (I’ll tell you more as soon as I can)."

She went on to share: "Feeling blessed with so much to smile about, I’m not taking any of it for granted. I love and appreciate every opportunity. Thank you to all who believe in me." And the comments section was quickly flooded with compliments and praise for the former Real Housewives of Cheshire star.

Helen Flanagan was among her celebrity pals to respond, writing: "Beautiful girl x." While former Coronation Street star Kimberley Hart-Simpson replied: "Yesssssss," with added applause emojis.

@xkatiexkatex said: "Love this! You deserve all the happiness in the world xx." @debradeakin80 commented: "You've come on leaps & bounds in the past couple of years, your amazing and a great inspiration to all women." @thescottmelanie wrote: "You look so happy and confident these days you go girl!!!"

@jessica._t3 posted: "Just stunning." @stuartjoszko74 shared: "Don't get much better than that, look fresh, and in happy place." @emlou102 typed: "Omg I thought you were Cameron Diaz for a second! Stunning as always!" @anne_connors1101 added: "Very inspiring words Christine. You're looking as beautiful and gorgeous as ever."
