Speaking to The Sun, Christine said of the mystery stars sending her flirty DMs: ‘It’s been quite fascinating really, I won’t name any names of the celebrities, it shocked me.
‘They kinda drop in like: “Hey, do you wanna go out?” I don’t reply, I’m not interested – I’m not there for that, and if you’re messaging me through Instagram, that’s not how I wanna meet somebody.’
Christine went on to confess that she is ‘open’ to starting to date this year but said she isn’t in any ‘big rush’ to jump into a new relationship.
