And it appeared she made an impression on former Manchester United midfielder Jesse Lingard, 30, who also attended the bash last week.
A source said: “Christine and Jesse were chatting for ages.
“It is clear Jesse took a shine to Christine and they looked pretty close.”
It comes after Christine was spotted checking out £2.2million five-bedroom homes in Prestbury, Cheshire, with an estate agent.
Christine, 35, and Paddy, 50, have three 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren.
They announced their split last year, but said they would still live together.
The reality TV star is set to take part in BBC Two’s Pilgrimage where celebs are sent to explore historic and spiritual sites.
Bosses of the show are hoping she will open up about her break-up with Paddy.
Christine had struck up a close friendship and been on holiday with girl pal Chelcee Grimes.
But the pair recently unfollowed each other on social media.
