1. She Doesn’t Want To Lose Too Much Weight

When it comes to working out, McGuinness doesn’t do it to lose weight. She tells The Mirror that fitness is more about how she feels than how she looks. “You need to focus on how you feel,” she said. “I had an eating disorder for 10 years. Constantly focusing on weight and ­losing it became an obsession. When you get into ­fitness, if you take away the scales and just go on how you feel and how your clothes fit, you become a bit more relaxed.”

2. She Strength Trains

One of McGuinness’ favorite workouts to do are strength training exercises. She tells The Mirror, “My goal is to be strong, not just slim. I want some shape and that’s why I go to the gym. When I’m lifting weights, I feel stronger.”

3. She Likes Working Out

I LOVE training and how it makes me feel both physically and mentally and always have done.”

Christine consumes a lot of protein. “I usually have a protein shake first thing, followed by scrambled eggs and avocado after the gym. In the afternoon, Paddy and I will eat out at a restaurant. I’ll order chicken salad with extra chicken to get a good protein hit after exercising. In the evenings, we’ll have salmon with broccoli and sweet potato. I snack on apples, bananas and grapes every day,” she told Closer. “Green and protein is what I aim for,” Christine added to Women Fitness. “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. I do have a sweet tooth; 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.”

Christine doesn’t “eat anything strange” and describes her eating habits as “very fussy and particular” to Closer. “I like things bland,” she told Closer. One thing she avoids completely? “Red meat.

4. She Exercises

“I like to do a variation of cardio, HIIT and weights,” Christine told Women Fitness about her approach to fitness. “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's 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.”

5. She Loves Herself

1. She Keeps Her Skincare Simple

McVeigh has amazing skin, and she revealed her secrets to Beauticate. She says that she keeps it simple and sticks to basic tips. ‘It’s important to make sure you’re covering the basics, like drinking lots of water and using sunblock. I haven’t had a full on beauty routine for a long time because being in this industry I get given a lot and love to try a lot. It’s hard to be consistent, and I think your skin can get too used to the same products and needs a change.”

2. She Makes Sure To Cleanse

One of McVeigh’s biggest skincare tips is cleansing her face. She says to Beauticate, “One thing I do swear by, though, is cleansing and moisturising. I never go to bed with makeup on. It’s so important to wash your face! I really like Dermalogica Special Cleaning Gel.”

3. She Loves Foundation

McVeigh tells Beauticate that she loves foundation. She says that it helps protect her skin. “I always wear Chanel foundation, either Sublimage or Vitalumière. I think wearing a layer on your face every day helps provide a bit of protection from the elements (in addition to sunblock, of course!) And obviously I think it makes me look better. I just use fingertips to apply. I always have and will continue to, despite what the makeup artists recommend. I feel like brushes and sponges hold onto bacteria, plus I can’t be bothered.”

4. She Loves What She Does

McVeigh tells The Grace Tales that she loves every job she does. She says that she will only take jobs that make her happy. “I think it’s very important to love what you do, as you take your energy home with you at the end of day. Now that I’m a mother I know what kind of work will stress me out or make me happy. My agency are absolutely incredible, they totally get it and never push jobs. I’m not into.”

5. She’s Grateful

McVeigh has had an amazing life, and she is thankful for it. When asked what advice she would give others by The Grace Tales, McVeigh says that it would be grateful. “I have done everything I wanted to do and have traveled the world,” she says. “So my only advice would be enjoy everyday and be grateful for everything.”
