Christine McGuinness won't let anyone else take care of her three autistic children

Christine McGuinness revealed she doesn't want anyone else to take care of her three autistic children.

The famous mum shares twins Penelope and Leo, eight, and daughter Felicity, four, with husband Paddy McGuinness, 47.

She appeared on This Morning to discuss how she felt about someone else looking after her children.

"I always just wanted to be a mum, my mum was a single mum, they have additional needs yes," the 33-year-old explained.

"I think we will get to the point one day, especially as I'm working more we are going to have to get help but to be honest I wouldn't know where to start."

The Real Housewives of Cheshire star added: "It scares me the thought of someone else looking after my children so we do try and juggle it.'"

It comes after Christine was confronted by a man who accused her of parking in a disabled space illegally.

The Loose Women star said her son Leo’s behaviour is “unpredictable” to the point that his anxiety can lead to meltdowns when they are looking for parking spaces.

She needs a blue badge and has called for more kindness towards parents of children with autism.

She said: “It was quite intimidating.

“The man said I wasn’t disabled, my children aren’t disabled, so why are you parked in a disabled space?

“I take any opportunity to educate people on autism. But there’s a time and a place and it’s not when I’m in a car park on my own with three children.
