She recently enjoyed a vacation with her three children, and shared some highlights on Instagram. In one photo, McGuinness wore a purple swimsuit and a white visor, her amazing abs on display. She captioned the post, “Extremely grateful, very blessed, soaking in every second of this unplanned adventure with my children 🥰 words can’t explain how proud I am 🥹 they’re making new friends, rolling around in the sand, eating in new places, this really was supposed to happen for us.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Christine McGuinness stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Believes In Moderation

McGuinness shared some of her diet secrets in an interview with Women Fitness. She says that when it comes to her diet, she believes in both moderation, and finding healthy versions of what she’s craving. “I do have a sweet tooth,” McGuinness says. “I allow myself treats in moderation, mainly weekends. When I’m craving sugar, I reach for the fruit bowl, or a mixed veg and fruit smoothie.”

2. She Loves Avocados

McGuinness tells Women Fitness that she makes sure to eat healthy. She says that a certain vegetable is a favorite of hers. “Green and protein is what I aim for. At the minute, I’m eating avocado with almost everything! Avocado with egg, avocado with chicken, avocado smash bagel. It's healthy and filling, it does contain fats, but good fats.”

3. She Does A Variety Of Workouts

McGuinness shared some of her favorite workouts with Women Fitness. “I like to do a variation of cardio, HIIT and weights,” she said. “I don’t stick to a routine; I do whatever I’m in the mood for that day. On days that I feel like doing nothing, I will pop the baby in the pram and go for a long walk, so I am still doing some gentle exercise. When I have had a good night sleep and feel like I’ve got plenty of energy, then I will interval run, followed by some abdominal workouts. I love to train my core.”

4. She Takes Care Of Her Hair & Skin

McGuinness shared some of her hair and skincare secrets in her Women Fitness interview. “I love to use coconut shampoo and conditioner on my hair, and coconut moisturizer on my skin. It works wonders and smells amazing. It is thanks to my coco butter that I only got a couple of stretch marks during my pregnancies, and they are barely visible. I am lucky with my facial skin, Its rare that I will get spots or blemishes, I put this down to drinking lots of water and barely wearing make up. I often get asked what I use to cleanse my face; the truth is I only ever use water to wash my face.”

5. She Swims

One thing McGuinness likes to do to keep herself in shape is going swimming. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself on a pool float. McGuinness captioned the post, “Lovely family holiday 😎Loads of you have asked how the kiddies got on (it’s their first trip abroad in 4 years, they don’t really enjoy travel or change) but with lots of prep and patience 😅 they done incredibly well and have absolutely loved it! 👏Very very proud mummy.”

Ferne McCann in Bathing Suit Says "Love is All" in Maldives

The Only Way Is Essex star Ferne McCann is currently on vacation in the gorgeous Maldives. And she is taking advantage of the country's gorgeous weather. McCann, who also appears in Ferne McCann: First Time Mum, posted a new photo on Instagram of herself spending time in an outdoor hot tub, while enjoying breakfast. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Ferne McCann stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!

1. She Has No Time For Haters

McCann says that she does not let body shamers or social media haters get her down. In 2016, she posted a video to her Snapchat addressing some photos that were taken of her on vacation. “I understand it’s not the best angle, I understand there probably is a bit of cellulite, but I can’t help it. I’m standing strong, I’m defiant, I’m not going to let these people get me down. So I’m going to get my glad rags on and I’m going to get to the TV Choice Awards!”

2. She Does A Lot Of Different Sports

McCann does a lot of different activities to stay in shape. She told the Daily Star that she does a lot of different sports to stay active. “I’m part of a netball team and I never let them down, I also had a badminton match that night and I’m training for the half marathon.” Ed Laskowski, M.D., co-director of the Mayo Clinic Sports Medicine Center, "offers the following tips for marathon runners just prior to the big race," says the Mayo Clinic:

  • "The day before the marathon, consume extra calories, especially high-carbohydrate foods such as bread, cereal, rice, pasta, and/or potatoes.
  • To enable fluid absorption, start drinking fluids at least four hours before exercise.
  • Most marathoners find they perform better if they consume carbohydrates during the race. Sports drinks, bars and gels are good options."

3. She’s All About Balance

McCann opened up about her diet to the Belfast Telegraph. She says that while she tries to eat healthy, she’s also a big believer in balance, and doesn't like to deprive herself. “For me, it’s all about making healthy choices, not starving yourself or denying yourself every day. I try to make healthy choices but it’s not like I cut out carbs or alcohol or Chinese takeaways completely because they are things that I absolutely love.”

4. She’s Kind To Herself

After becoming a mom, McCann says that she didn’t try to put pressure on herself to lose the baby weight, or look like other women. She told The Sun that she was kind to herself during her weight loss process. “You can feel stronger, more amazing and more confident when you are kinder to your body. Women need to stop comparing themselves to others — whether that’s their weight, their figure, their wardrobe or even how they parent. I think mums are the worst for it. We are all so desperate to compare ourselves to other mums when really we are all doing an amazing job by ourselves and we should celebrate that.”

5. She Works Out Regularly

McCann broke down her wellness secrets and routines to Women’s Health. She says that she aims to work out at least four days a week, and rests three days a week. “I try to exercise four days a week within reason – if life, my daughter or work commitments get in the way it goes down to three. But that’s a minimum.”
