However, the mum-of three has since squashed the rumours of romance and explained: “You know it’s a good night when you don’t take any photos.
"Loads of you are saying ‘Oh we’re so happy for you’ that I was on a date.
“It was my mate, Duncan’s my friend. Duncan’s got a gorgeous partner and I love them both.
"But yeah, I was only taking the p**s when I said I was on a date.
“I don’t like dates, I don’t do dates absolutely not. My voice keeps going I was talking all night.
"I laughed so much it was a really good night.”
This comes after her split from husband of 15-years, Paddy McGuinness.
In her new BBC production, Unmasking My Autism, she said she stayed in her marriage for far longer than she should have because she "doesn't like change".
Their separation appears to be amicable, with Paddy posting an emotional tribute to his wife on International Woman's Day last month.
Sharing a picture of Christine , he wrote: “Happy International Women’s Day to all the amazing women out there.
“Thank you @mrscmcguinness for being an incredible Mother to our beautiful children and for raising awareness around Autism which affects our little family and so many others.
“Today’s about celebrating all the good women. #internationalwomensday.”
The former couple also still live together, sharing their £2.2million Cheshire mansion.
Christine recently revealed the heartbreaking reason she is still co-habiting with ex Paddy.
They have remained living together for the sake of their three children, twins Leo and Penelope, nine, and Felicity, seven, according to the pair.
Now she's shared another reason for their unusual situation.
Christine said: "I've known Paddy for 15 years so I don't know life without him.
"I like slow changes, and we're alright – we're family."
But Christine insisted she will eventually move on, telling new! magazine: "It's certainly not a long-term or forever plan."
Presenter Paddy recently opened up about working away and admitted it's hard to be away from Christine and the kids.
