Christine McGuinness has spoken of her excitement in teaming up with award-winning writer Sophie Gravia to speak about love, relationships and everything in between.
Paddy McGuinness’ ex today announced her new “judgement-free” podcast with Sophie Gravia, which has been commissioned for BBC Sounds.
TV personality, model and author Christine said: “I am so excited to be hosting this podcast with Sophie. It’ll be real, raw and, most importantly, judgement-free. We’ll be chatting all things love, relationships, and everything in between.”
Sophie is known for her hilarious, sexy and brutally honest novels and with Christine will be hosting Situationships.
Each week, they say, audiences will be taken on a rollercoaster ride of funny, bizarre and downright weird stories of when relationships take an unexpected turn. The podcast will see the duo delve into listeners’ dating dilemmas, relationship revelations and ‘situationship struggles’.
As well as offering judgement-free advice, Sophie and Christine will give a glimpse into their own lives and situationships as they juggle the pressures of dating, parenting and their careers.
The Bolton News previously reported that Christine McGuiness quit Celebs Go Dating after revealing that she is “not ready” to date in the public eye.
The media personality announced that she originally “joined Celebs Go Dating with great intentions” but soon realised that dating on such a public platform is “too soon”.
Situationships with Sophie and Christine will be fully visualised and available on BBC Sounds, BBC Scotland and BBC iPlayer from 19 June.

Heather Kane Darling, Commissioning Editor BBC Scotland, says: “We are delighted to be bringing this brand-new podcast to audiences across the UK. Sophie and Christine are the perfect duo to take audiences through the highs and lows of relationships and dating. Everyone’s welcome in Club Situationships!”
Word-of-mouth sensation Sophie has never shied away from the messy, hilarious realities of modern relationships. Raised just outside Glasgow, Sophie began sharing her unfiltered dating adventures in her twenties while working as an NHS nurse. Her blog, Sex in the Glasgow City, quickly became a cult hit, striking a chord with readers across the UK.
Riding the wave of her blog’s success, Sophie’s debut novel A Glasgow Kiss soared straight to number one in the erotic fiction charts. Now, five years on and over quarter of a million book sales later, she’s gearing up to release her fifth novel.
Juggling her writing career with life as a single mum, a full-time NHS nurse, and the occasional situationship of her own, Sophie has become the ultimate go-to confidante for fans and friends alike. Honest, relatable, and always hilarious, she continues to turn life’s dating disasters into literary gold.
Sophie says: “Fronting this podcast alongside Christine is an absolute dream. Just like a girls’ night in, no topic is off limits, and we will be diving headfirst into the comedy, chaos and sometimes downright cringe of dating. I cannot wait to chat through our own outrageous stories together and of course hear the dating dilemmas sent in by listeners.”
Blackpool-born Christine McGuiness wears many hats as a TV personality, model and author. Recently fronting her own BBC One documentary Unmasking My Autism, Christine has been raw and honest about her own experiences, passionately advocating for positive representation of autistic women in the media.
While navigating her busy career, parenting and dating life, Christine will give an exclusive insight into her own personal life and offer her own advice to listeners.
