Beaming Christine McGuinness breaks cover as she's seen for first time since Chelcee kiss

Christine McGuinness was all smiles while out and about, just days after she was spotted kissing her best friend, Chelcee Grimes.

The Real Housewives Of Cheshire star, 34, made headlines after he was spotted kissing Chelcee during a trip to Winter Wonderland.

The kiss comes just months after the mum-of-three, 34, announced her split from husband Paddy McGuinness after the pair decided to part ways following 11 years of marriage.

Following her kiss with Chelcee, Christine looked on top of the world as she enjoyed a lunch with a pal in Alderley Edge.

The blonde beauty oozed glamour as she rocked a full face of makeup and straight locks as she beamed for the camera – in the first time she has been seen out since the Winter Wonderland smooch.

For her relaxed lunch date, Christine rocked an oversized blazer which she paired with a black hoodie and some black leggings.

On Instagram, Christine told her fans that she didn't know what to do with herself because she hasn't had a day off to herself in so long.

"I have got a little day off today and I don’t know what to do with myself," she admitted. “I am literally just sat in a car park thinking what should I do?

“I have just been to have my nails done. I am going to try and have lunch this afternoon if my friend can get her a**** over we will go and get something to eat.”

Christine is clearly loving her single life, and has been hanging out with pal Chelcee a lot in recent months after the pair grew close while appearing on The Games earlier this year.

The duo were seen at the Christmas festival in London sharing a tender kiss while sitting on a bench enjoying drinks.

Christine and Chelcee were low-key with their outing and seemed inseparable as they looked deep in conversation while giggling and smiling.

A witness, who was also at Winter Wonderland, revealed: “It was a sweet moment between Christine and Chelcee as they sat on a bench outside and enjoyed live music.

According to the onlooker, the duo were 'all smiles' as they walked around the annual pop-up event 'hand-in-hand'.

"But they didn’t seem to have a care in the world and looked like they were in their own little bubble, it was cute," they told The Sun.

Their outing comes after it was reported the two grew close following Christine's split from Paddy.

Christine and Chelcee recently jetted off to Crete for a girl's vacation and sources claimed they have been hanging out 'a lot' at home.

Their friendship first began when they both appeared on the show The Games together earlier this year.

In September this year, shortly after Paddy and Christine's shock announcement, Chelcee – who once dated Love Island star Megan Barton Hanson – joined Christine on a mini-break in Santorini, with the pair also enjoying a trip to Croatia with pals over the summer.

"Christine and Chelcee hit it off straight away and love spending time with each other," a source close to the two stars has said. "They have just enjoyed another sun-filled break together but also hang out a lot at home."

The source added how Chelcee will regularly visit Christine's house when their schedules allow it and has been a great support to the star following her marriage split.

The Mirror has contacted Christine and Chelcee's reps for a comment.
