Paddy McGuinness says daughter, 5, 'demands answers'

Paddy McGuinness has said that his five-year-old daughter 'demands answers' as he enjoys the summer holidays with her.

The comedian shares his three kids - Penelope, Leo and Felicity, with his now ex Christine McGuinness. The famous couple announced their split recently after 11 years of marriage.

Since then, Paddy has been documenting his time spent with his children as they enjoy the summer holidays. Yesterday, he took to Instagram to share a post where he said he had "a five year old daughter demanding answers."

The post showed a toy railway track with a piece missing. Paddy captioned it: "FFS! One piece missing and a five year old daughter demanding answers. I’ve still not had a brew. Get me Mick Lynch on the phone! #monday #schoolholidays #railtrack #engineering #pressure."

Fans of the star commented saying that their thoughts were with him, as each of his children are diagnosed with autism and they are aware of the impact small changes like a missing piece could cause. Anne said: "Oh dear. I feel your pain #autismmom Good luck, my thoughts are with you!"

Lisa said: "I know the feeling all too well #autismmom I hope it works out!" Sarah said: "Completely understand that you HAVE to find that missing piece. Good luck!"

In a statement released when they split, Paddy and Christine said: "A while ago we took the difficult decision to separate but our main focus as always is to continue loving and supporting our children. This was not an easy decision to make but we're moving forward as the best parents we can be for our three beautiful children.

"We'll always be a loving family, we still have a great relationship and still live happily in our family home together. We hope this now draws a line under any more unwanted and unnecessary intrusion into our private life."
