Christine McGuinness comes to 'intense' realisation days before Celebs Go Dating exit

Tonight, Celebs Go Dating viewers saw the celebrities let their hair down for a night out on the town in Ibiza, without Christine McGuinness by their side - as she made a sad admission about being away from her children.

It's been a tough week in the agency for mother of three Christine, who was visibly uncomfortable during the first mixer. She did however, manage to secure a date in Ibiza, and last night fans saw her having a lovely time with Leanne.

The pair, who are both mothers to three children, opened up about the mum guilt they face, and tonight, Christine emotionally opened up about missing her children while she was away. It comes after Christine McGuinness says 'it's my fault' and reveals surprising truth behind Paddy split.

Before the season started airing, Christine revealed she had decided to leave the agency, in scenes which are yet to air. However, it looks like Christine's time could be up soon, as she spoke about how the process felt 'too intense' for her.

As her castmates Louis Russell, Jon Lee and Olivia Hawkins headed off for a night in the town, Christine informed the trio that she'd be staying back for a quiet night alone in the villa.

Expanding to the camera, the 37-year-old said: "In all honesty, I'm finding being away from the kids and being here with everyone a little bit too intense. I'm just craving a bit of peace and quiet," she said.

The others then headed on an eventful night out, where they met Kerry Katona after her date. Too Hot To Handle's Louis Russell appeared to get lucky during the night out, as he was spotted kissing another girl in front of Love Islandstar Olivia's face.

The two have been getting close all series, as S Club star Jon told Olivia that Louis kissing a girl was to "get her back" for bringing her date back to the villa later in the day.

It looks like Christine avoided the villa drama, and it doesn't look like she'll be there for much longer, as confirmed back in May.

Taking to her Instagram story a few months back, Christine said: "I joined Celebs Go Dating with great intentions but have realised that dating on a public platform and the attention that brings is just too soon for me.

"They've said the door is always open for me which I'm so grateful but for now I'm returning home to my family."

A spokesperson for Celebs Go Dating said in a statement that those behind the show have "loved" working with Christine and "respect her feelings".

They said: "We have loved having Christine on the show and completely respect her feelings and decision to return home and have told her that the door is always open for her in the future at the agency."
