Struggling actor Paddy McGuinness faces difficulties in selling his £6.5m property post-divorce, seemingly demonstrating apparent distress.
Paddy and Christine McGuinness' Pricey Cheshire Home Remains Unsold
Paddy McGuinness, the popular British television presenter, was recently spotted stepping out of his brand new £163,000 BMW in Manchester [1]. Meanwhile, his shared £6.5 million mansion in Cheshire, a posh neighborhood in east England, continues to elude potential buyers.
The luxurious mansion, which the McGuinnesses purchased for £2.1 million in 2020 [2], is currently the most expensive property listed on Rightmove in the upscale town of Prestbury [3]. Despite its prime location and lavish amenities, including a gym, his and hers dressing-rooms, an orangery, and planning permission for a rear extension and roof terrace, the house has generated "very little interest" in the five months since it hit the market [1][4].
The primary reason for this lack of interest is believed to be the high asking price, considered steep even for such an affluent neighborhood [1][4]. Additionally, sources suggest a reported disagreement between Paddy and Christine McGuinness about the pricing, leading to suspicion that the price was deliberately inflated to stall the sale [1]. This tension over the pricing has contributed to the difficulty in selling the property.
The couple, who separated in 2022 but continued living together for co-parenting their three autistic children, reportedly still reside in the seven-bedroom mansion [5]. This ongoing living arrangement may be complicating the decision to sell and move on quickly.
Christine McGuinness, who is one of eight celebrities in the E4 show, has confirmed that for the past three years, she has been involved with only women [6]. She initially quit filming the E4 show after just a week, but returned for the show's finale [7]. Christine has also shared that her sexuality is a "free spirit" and she prefers deeper connections with women [6].
As for Paddy McGuinness, he was casually dressed in a beige Ami Paris t-shirt, matching cargo trousers, white and brown trainers, and tinted sunglasses, as he went about his day in Manchester [1].
Despite the challenges in selling their Cheshire home, Christine McGuinness has expressed her unhappiness with the current living situation in the house they share [8]. She reportedly lives in separate parts of the house with Paddy [9]. The couple finalized their divorce last year [7].
