Paddy and Christine McGuinness, Katie Price, Kerry Katona, and many more celebs are proud parents of neurodivergent kids.
Here’s the list of celebs currently smashing it and doing an incredible job as parents to neurodivergent children.
Paddy and Christine McGuinness
Paddy and Christine have been very open about life as parent to neurodiverse children. Their three children, Penelope, Felicity, and Leo are autistic.
Their journey raising their children also saw Christine learn that she too is autistic. The couple fronted a documentary on BBC One in 2021 titled, Paddy And Christine McGuinness: Our Family And Autism.
In his documentary, he said: “If anybody mentioned the word autism to me I would say “I don’t want to speak about it, I don’t want to think about it.” Now I’m finally talking about autism, I just wish I hadn’t spent so much time trapped by the fear of it all.”
Katie Price
Former glamour model Katie is another star with a neurodivergent child. Her eldest son, Harvey Price, is autistic. He also has Prader-Willi syndrome and is partially blind.
Katie has documented Harvey’s journey from a very young age, and he was subject of two documentaries for the BBC – Katie Price: Harvey and Me, and What Harvey Did Next.
She also went down the legal route to make online abuse a crime following trolling against Harvey.
