Christine McGuinness considered feeding tube for 'seriously underweight' autistic son

Christine McGuinness has revealed that she was once forced to consider a feeding tube for her 'seriously underweight' son.

The 34-year-old mum shares three children with her TV presenting husband, Paddy. Twins Penelope and Leo, eight, and Felicity, six, have each been diagnosed with autism and the family are open about the ups and downs that this can bring.

Most recently, Christine has explained how her children's autism can cause problems at mealtimes. All three of her children are over sensitive when it comes to food, including the taste, smell and texture of it.
