Christine McGuinness Diagnosis
Life hasn’t always been glamourous for the model who has appeared in The Real Housewives of Cheshire.
More recently, Christine discovered she was autistic, as are all three of her children. She appeared in the BBC documentary Our Family and Autism, which followed her and Paddy over many months as they learn more about the condition.
The couple also met other parents, experts, and people on the autism spectrum, including footballer Paul Scholes, who has a 16-year-old non-verbal autistic son.
Just months after learning she had autism, Christine was diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, better known as ADHD. The condition includes symptoms such as being restless and having trouble concentrating.
The model told the Manchester Evening News in November that her diagnosis came as ‘such a huge relief.’ She said: “When I got the diagnosis, I can honestly say it was such a huge relief. Just to know there was a reason why I felt this way and why I struggled with certain things. It’s really helped me, my husband to understand autism a lot more, it’s helped me when it comes to working, and in everyday life.”
She also developed anorexia at the age of eight, spending secondary school without eating a proper meal. Christine was also sexually assaulted as a teenager.
Speaking in an emotional clip from the first episode, the influencer can be seen leaving the track in tears as she takes some time to come to terms with the daunting task at hand.
Confiding in one of the show’s production team, Christine explains how she feared she may not be able to compete on the show due to a fear of large crowds, triggered by her autism.

And now it’s back as ITV picks up the baton and a new line-up of The Games contestants prepare to do battle across a host of different disciplines from sprinting to diving and weight lifting to cycling. The Games continue on ITV and ITV Hub. The program sees celebrities compete in a series of athletic events after undergoing 12 weeks of grueling training.
