Kirsty Gallacher recently admitted she is finally ready for a serious relationship, seven years after she quit her marriage to ex-rugby player Paul Sampson. This comes after she was linked to Paddy McGuinness.
Kirsty Gallacher has enjoyed a successful career as a television presenter for more than two decades. She began her career at Sky Sports News before going on to several other interesting TV host jobs — including co-presenting The Great British Breakfast on GB News.
There is no doubt that things have been pretty busy for Gallacher on the career front. However, her off-screen life also features plenty of drama — including a high-profile divorce and a secret relationship.
In 1999, Gallacher tied the knot with ex-rugby player Paul Sampson in a £50,000 wedding ceremony. The duo shares two sons — Oscar, 15, and Jude,12. Kirsty Gallacher’s relationship with Sampson broke down over the years, and they got divorced in 2015.
Since then, the media has massively publicized Kirsty Gallacher’s relationship history. Gallacher has tried her best to keep her relationships private, but with the kind of media following she attracts, that has proved almost impossible.

Kirsty Gallacher Ready For Relationship
Although Gallacher has been linked to a couple of men in the past, none of those relationships were able to stand the test of time. More recently, the mother of two got candid about her personal life while talking to her friend Gabby Logan on her “Mid Point podcast.”
The 47-year-old former ITV presenter revealed she finally feels ready for a serious relationship and claimed she was on a dating app. However, Gallacher admitted that she would prefer to meet someone the old-fashioned way.
While chatting with Logan, Gallacher emphasized how she would love to meet someone right now. She also mentioned her last relationship was 18 months ago, but she wasn’t in a good place at the time.
Gallacher went on to reveal she feels more ready now and misses companionship. The TV host claimed she was hoping to find someone to sweep her off her feet.
She said about finding love, “I haven’t had that in a long time. You yearn for that as a person. I am very romantic and would really love that at this point. I’m ready for it right now.”
This comes after Gallacher was linked to her friend Paddy McGuinness. However, sources close to the two have debunked the rumors. They claim McGuinness is only leaning on her for support following his split from his wife Christine last year.
Meanwhile, Kirsty Gallacher’s relationship history has also seen her linked to some famous people, including footballer Rio Ferdinand and actor Tim Vincent. Hopefully, she finds the love that will keep her floating in the air.
