Paddy McGuinness' wife Christine says may be genetic link to all three children's autism

Christine is set to appear on ITV’s Tonight programme, Hidden Disabilities: What’s the Truth, where she says other parents she knows “gave up” applying for blue badges because the application for people with a disability is difficult and must be done every three years,

But Christine also revealed on This Morning she’s taking part in another documentary – one that explores the cause of autism through a genetic link.

She said: “I believe there is a genetic link there…everyone seems to think there’s a genetic link there.”

Autism Speaks says there’s no one cause of autism, but research suggests autism develops from a combination of genetic and nongentic, or environmental, influences.
