Christine McGuinness: Blackpool-born star shares her solution for a stressful day

Blackpool-born Christine McGuinness has shared on social media her secret for dealing with a stressful day...

In an Instagram story shared with her 771k followers yesterday (June 26), Christine said: “Like most people on a Monday, I’ve woke up to loads of emails, phone calls, you know when like everyone just wants to catch up and get stuff done because it's a new week and all that, which I'm there for it, love that for you, but for me, my head’s spinning. I’ve got like a million things I need to organise and it's just not what I'm good at, like logistic type stuff – trains, cars, hotels, appointments, things like that, I'm just not very good at.”

The 35-year-old former model then went on to say: “So what I've done is, been for a wash and blow and I feel loads better but I haven't got anything done. So I'm gonna go sort my life out in the next hour and then I can carry on with life because right now my head's spinning with stuff, I'm not calm.”
