"But yeah, I was only taking the p**s when I said I was on a date."
She added: "I don't like dates, I don't do dates absolutely not, my voice keeps going I was talking all night.
"I laughed so much it was a really good night."
Prior to clarifying her relationship situation, Christine took to social media and said: "I'm just waiting for my date to arrive, here he is big D, everyone!" before Duncan appeared.

However, Duncan came out as bisexual in 2009 before coming out as gay in 2014.
Last week, Christine opened up to the Mirror about her love life moving forward and revealed that her future partner has to be similar to Paddy.
She said: "I was talking about this with a friend, actual dating I can’t think of anything worse and I think for an autistic person it is so much worse because the dating scene from what I’ve heard, you have to go into a restaurant, you're meeting someone you don't know, you're in a place that you might not have been to before.
"I don't drink so I wouldn’t go to a bar but I never really dated so going on dates for me is not something I want to do. I absolutely do not want to go on a date.
"When I met Patrick, I already knew him it was a slow burner so that just happened. I think once you're comfortable with someone, then you can do your dinner dates I need it to happen the other way round."
