Christine shares ‘bad morning’ on Instagram
CHRISTINE McGuinness has emotionally discussed the reality of raising her three autistic children.
The 31-year-old broke down in tears as she told fans she was having a ‘bloody hard day’.
Christine shares youngest daughter Felicity Rose and twins Penelope and Leo with Bolton comic Paddy McGuinnes.
Using her Instagram stories to talk openly about her situation, the Real Housewives of Cheshire star said: “Hello I don’t want to bring anyone’s mood down, but I just want to show the reality of being a mum of autistic children.
“Sometimes it’s not fun, today was just a really bad morning, I know it will be fine later but this is what you don’t see,” she said as she lifted her sunglasses to wipe the tears from her eyes. “I am fine and I’m upset for my children, this was just a bad morning and I’ll have a good day, it’s just sometimes it’s not always fun.
“I don’t want to bring anyone down, I just think it’s important to show it’s not always fine and lovely and they’re all doing great and they are, they’re all doing brilliant, but it’s hard, it’s bloody hard.”
Later, she posted a picture alongside Paddy enjoying a brew. She said: “That’s better! Thank you all so much for your lovely DMs today. Sometimes my heart breaks a little bit for my babies but they mend it very quickly!”
Christine announced last month that three-year-old Felicity was diagnosed with the developmental disability. The diagnosis comes years after she and Paddy, 46, were told Leo and Penelope also had autism.
