PADDY McGuinness has revealed his "heartbreak" over his autistic children being snubbed. The 48-year-old presenter said it was "upsetting" that their young kids are judged by their peers.

The Bolton-born star revealed the added challenges of being a parent as their three children, eight-year-old twins Leo and Penelope, and five-year-old Felicity, all have autism.  "It's upsetting as a parent when your child goes up to another child in that lovely way and introduces themselves, which is the most normal, nice thing to do ever," the Top Gear host said on Table Talk podcast. "But most kids will look at that as: 'What the hell is going on here?' They don't understand it.

As a parent, it's heartbreaking." The TV host - who have been married to Christine since 2011- said that this has happened a "million times" but praised his kids and said that he is "glad his kids still do it".

Paddy and Christine, 32, helped to provide awareness of autism with their documentary Paddy And Christine McGuinness: Our Family And Autism last year.
