Christine McGuinness clears up confusion as she is 'spotted' on celeb dating site

Christine McGuinness took to Instagram today to clear up some confusion surrounding her love life.

The model, who has recently split from Top Gear's Paddy McGuinness, said she had been inundated with messages asking her if she was on the celebrity dating site Raya. She thanked those who made her aware of the situation before warning people that the profile on the site wasn't actually her.

Speaking to the camera in a short clip, the mum-of-three said: "I've had a couple of days off Instagram over Christmas which has done me so much good, but I just wanted to come on quickly as there's a couple of things."

She added: "First of all, I'll try and be quick with this because I feel a bit awkward about it. There is a dating website called Raya which is known for celebrities and artists and people with a profile to use.

"It's a dating website where people meet up. I've had lots of messages the last couple of days and the messages I'm getting are off people with blue ticks so I do believe there is this profile of me on Raya. It's not me. It's definitely not me.

"I've got nothing against dating sites but personally I've never used one and I wouldn't even know where to start. I don't want anyone to go and meet someone and be thinking it's going to be me who you're going to meet on the date."

Christine thanked those who had made her aware of the situation before telling people to be more "original and exciting" with date ideas. She hinted that people had invited her out for dinner or drinks as she explained that she doesn't like eating around people she isn't comfortable with and also hasn't drank in 15 years.

She said: "Do a bit of research on the person.... anyway it's not me but good luck with your dates."
