Christine McGuinness dazzles in bikini display before opening up to fans about head being 'full'

Christine McGuinness left little to the imagination as she showed off her gym-honed figure during a recent holiday. The former model took to Instagram on Saturday (October 22) to show off her recent trip to Crete which she said combined 'business and pleasure'.

She shared a video to her main grid which showed her dazzling in a beige bikini that boasted a halter-neck design in a variety of different locations around the pool and in her hotel. The first clip showed the 34-year-old lounging on a hammock above the crystal clear pool.

Another showed her posing for a selfie, showing of her beach-ready blonde locks and holiday glow. Christine revealed she had already headed on the paid trip with Stella Island, a luxury hotel on the island, and returned back home to Cheshire. In other parts of the reel, Christine could be seen dressed up in an all-black ensemble which she wore under a casual white shirt as she explored the island.

"When business meets pleasure," the mum-of-three typed alongside the post. "That’s a fire combination." And she was quickly being flooded with compliments as the comments section became flooded with fire emojis. Gemma Atkinson was among the first to add some flames underneath the post while Loose Women star Denise Welch added alongside hers: "Stop it."

Nicola McLean added: "Nicest girl ever," while TV star Jenny Powell replied: "Boom!! [flame emojis] you go girl!!" Christine also shared the clips to her Instagram Story where she shared a video of herself cutting a casual figure alongside her 'CM' branded suitcase." Home time came so fast," she said.

But she added: "But look what I go home too," before pointing her followers onto the next slide. It showed a variety of pictures which had been painted by the children she shares with ex-husband Paddy McGuinness - twins Leo and Penelope, nine, and five-year-old Felicity.

"There's no place like home," the former Real Housewives of Cheshire star said as she showed off the coulrful artwork. Christine then decided to speak to her fans directly, praising her hundreds of thousands of followers for being "patient" with her.

Earlier this month, Christine vowed to be more active on the platform but admitted to being 'not fine' following the breakdown of her marriage.

Christine and Top Gear host Paddy announced they had separated back in July following rumours their 11-year marriage had come to an end. "So last week I said I was going to try be active on social media and I last two days," Christine said on her Instagram Story. Wearing a white hoodie as she lounged on a sofa, she went on: "Then I don't know, I just think I've got social media anxiety.

"Anyway, I'm gonna go in the gym and try and feel a bit more like myself again. I'm ok, I'm good. I'm just thinking loads. My head is full. So full. I've had so many thoughts. I'm writing a lot of stuff down, that helps. I'm doing loads of writing, loads of thinking and staying quiet which is working for me for now."

She also typed alongside the video: "Thank you all for being the most patient followers. My head is so full right now. But I'm good, really good. Happy, blessed, grateful."
