Debbie was left devastated by the death of Paul in March 2016.
She told Hello: “I don’t want to be on my own for the rest of my life.
“I love male company, am full of energy and don’t want to be stuck at home alone.
“Although I have male friends that take me out for lunches and dinners, I wouldn’t describe them as dates.
“Nobody has actually asked me out yet, but when they do, I’ll go.
“That’s how I deal with life, by taking it as it comes.”
The couple were married for 28 years – and together for 10 years before that – when Paul died of cancer at the age of 77.
McGee said she focused on work to cope with the loss, explaining that it gave her something to get up for and focus on the new.

“When you’re going through hard times,” she added, “I’ve found that it’s best to be thankful for what you’ve got and to tell yourself, ‘I’m going to make the best of this day that I can.'”
She added that she knows Daniels would have been proud of her turn on Strictly, where she reached the final before losing out to Joe McFadden.
She said: “If Paul could see me now, he would be so proud and happy for me. I’m having the greatest time and feel like the luckiest person in the world.”
