Paddy McGuinness And Wife Christine Open Up About Autistic Twins

Paddy McGuinness and his wife Christine have opened up about their twins having autism.

Penelope and Leo are four-years-old.

Speaking to the Mirror Christine said: "We'd been to see a paediatrician and at the end she said quite casually: "I'm absolutely certain both the children have autism".

"I was so angry with her. How dare she say that about my children, having only seen them for a few hours? I can say that because I’ve told her it since and she’s been absolutely lovely.

"But I was totally stunned. It was the first I'd ever thought of them having autism ­– even if, looking back, it was obvious."

Speaking about the twins she continued: "Penelope will only get in the car if Leo is already there. She has a more varied diet than Leo but she can become obsessed with certain foods.

"If she has a bag of Wotsits she'll want another and another, so you have to empty the bag then say there's none left or she can't understand why she can't have them."
