Christine McGuinness has looked to put rumours that she has split from husband Paddy to bed by laughing off suggestions that their marriage is on the rocks.
The 34-year-old mum-of-three has been the subject of rumours on social media over the past week but she has now defiantly said that all is okay between her and Top Gear host Paddy, 48.
Speaking to OK! Christine said made it clear, saying: "We’re really good, honestly."
She went on to celebrate their good times together as well as admit that they have had some tough patches.
Christine continue: "We have had difficult times but when I look back at our marriage and see where we are now, I think, ‘Wow, you know, we’ve done alright!’
"I first met Paddy 14 years ago and now we’ve got three gorgeous kids, we’ve been married for 11 years, we’re both busier than ever, but doing really great stuff.
"I couldn’t ask for anything more from him. I’m so grateful. I’m happy, I’ve got no complaints.”
Christine went on to praise the parenting skills of Paddy, with the couple sharing twins Penelope and Leo, both nine, and six-year-old Felicity together.
She said of hubby Paddy: “He’s got a really strong bond with all of the children and he’s more hands-on now than ever before.
“He used to struggle to switch off from work when he came home and would be in his office writing or whatever.
"But now he can see the kids are getting older and how fast time flies. So when he’s at home, he makes it all about the kids. We’ve all grown as a family and it’s lovely.”
Christine said that her "biggest goal" was becoming a mum and that it is "all I've wanted to be."
The former reality star added: “Motherhood is more than I ever expected and I’ve learned so much about myself along the way.”
“I didn’t know I could be as patient as I am. I’ve been a mum for nearly nine years and they’re all growing and thriving. I have got three very, very happy children and they are loved more than they’ll ever know. It’s the best thing I’ve ever done.”
