SHE’S had a whirlwind year since her divorce from ex-husband Paddy McGuinness, but Christine McGuinness is stepping into 2025 with confidence and determination.
At 36, Christine has transformed a rollercoaster year of highs and lows into an empowering journey of self-discovery.
Juggling life as a single mum to her three children – 10-year-old twins Penelope and Leo, and seven-year-old Felicity, all of whom have autism – she’s has shown that she is embracing self-love after her 2022 split following 11 years of marriage.
Christine even has described herself as a “completely different person” when surrounded by people she trusts, exuding newfound positivity and strength.
Despite her separation, from Paddy, 51, they have continued living together in their £2.5 million Cheshire mansion to ensure stability for their children.
Now, with divorce proceedings finally wrapped up, Christine is firmly taking charge of her future.
Christine has shared a total of 144 photos in 2024, baring way more than she did during her married days.
She kicked off the year with a stunning nude shoot for Fabulous Magazine to mark Valentine’s Day and wrapped it up with a bold carousel of topless, bum-baring images just one day ago.
As she enters 2025, it appears that Christine is embracing her independence in style.
From stunning topless pictures to bold new ventures, she’s marking this new chapter with confidence and individuality.
Body language expert Judi James believes Christine’s transformation shows she’s ready to reclaim her identity, using her confidence as a superpower to shine in the year ahead.
She says: “Christine McGuinness has navigated a deeply personal journey of healing and reinvention since her split from Paddy McGuinness.
“Living under the same roof post-divorce – a decision made with their children’s well-being in mind – has likely added layers of complexity to her path forward.
“It’s a choice that, while practical for co-parenting their three children, can make moving on emotionally more challenging.
“For many, a clean break often feels like a cauterised wound – sharp but finite – compared to the lingering complexities of living in close proximity.
“Sharing a home can blur boundaries, potentially delaying personal growth and complicating efforts to form new relationships.
“Christine, however, seems to have pushed through those challenges with a year full of nude shoots, which looks like the culmination of what might be called her ‘pedestal stage.’
“While many women post-breakup focus on the classic ‘revenge dress’ phase – sending a ‘look what you’re missing’ message – Christine has elevated herself beyond that narrative.
“Her bold topless poses radiate a newfound confidence that seems rooted in self-appreciation rather than external validation.
“She’s stepping into a space where she’s celebrating herself, not as a response to her ex, but as a declaration of her own strength and individuality.
“Her 2024 year of baring all suggest a woman who has stopped looking back and is instead focused on embracing her future, on her terms.”
Here, Judi takes a look at Christine’s year of embracing of herself following the split from her husband.
Judi says: “Christine’s topless shots show her in a state of surprise or discovery.
“Her body language suggests she’s maybe only just realised how amazing she looks and the poses are all about her admiring herself rather than posing just for the camera.
“Even how she is looking away and but baring all shows a newly-found confidence.”
Judi says: “She uploaded this snap as part of a reel of her year and it showed pure sass.
“Christine showed her life as a movie with tiny clips of her body’s ‘best bits’ pulled into the theme of having elegant fun in an exotic location.
“Her body is allowed to look superb and there’s no hint of any non-verbal signals of self-consciousness to suggest inner wounds or anxieties.
“It perfectly picks out the ‘Pedestal’ mentality of having reached a very high place in terms of body confidence that she maybe hadn’t reached before in her life.”
Judi says: “This time an iconic movie pose but with Christine totally bossing it and making it her own here.
“The pit-baring sends the same signal of a lack of feelings of vulnerability and an ability to take life as it comes now.
“By looking forward, and showing her back to the world, she signals she’s not intimidated and is willing to put things behind her, in fact she brings her own energy to this look.”
Judi says: “Christine exudes effortless confidence and sex appeal here.
“Divorce can create a ripple of stress through a family, but Christine’s bold, striking back to the camera pose sends a clear message that she’s in control, strong, and unfazed by any negativity.
“Rather than showing any signs of emotional fragility, Christine appears focused, ready to take on new challenges, and at the peak of her game.”
Judi says: “Christine shows no cheesyness here, and it’s clear she is fierce.
“Her slightly raised chin, arched back and narrowed eyes all imply she has been left smarter and less vulnerable after her split.
“It’s a very womanly look, with the word ‘warrior’ hanging in the air.”
Judi says: “This pose is a Christine Keeler dupe, she’s covering up but baring all at the same time.
“With a big smile on her face, this pose itself projects total confidence, though.
“Her chin is raised in a gesture of defiance, and she is at arms reach, which is a splay-and-display signal of confidence and her legs are also stretched out at a very challenging right angle.”
MARNIE Simpson has put up her Christmas tree six weeks early - but she's not the only celebrity embracing the festive feeling.
Marnie, 32, told how she was “obsessed” with her sophisticated sparkling tree positioned in her newly re-vamped lounge.
She joins TOWIE alum Lucy Mecklenburgh who has also put her tree up prematurely for 2024.
Kerry Katona was previously slammed for putting up her tree “ridiculously” early – so it remains to be seen if she will do the same this time around.
