Viewers called it ‘disgusting’ and ‘humiliating’ for Harry.
Danielle Lloyd appeared on This Morning earlier today to talk about autism and how she thinks her son Harry might have Asperger’s syndrome. She has said that she went on the show to raise awareness and to discuss her son’s habits at home.
While sitting side by side on the couch with Harry, she said:
“Harry’s got his own little ways. He’s very emotional and socially awkward around people.
It’s really hard to deal with sometimes, and very frustrating for me and other people around us.
When I take him out, he’s really loud and people are looking at him as if to say why is he not behaving because he’s shouting and screaming.”
People have since been criticising her for speaking about him while he was present. They’ve called it ‘disgusting’ and ‘humiliating’ for Harry.
Danielle Lloyd wd stop calling her son “socially awkward” in front of him. & “odd” or “hard to deal with” self esteem? #ThisMorning #autism

Not sure why Danielle Lloyd would drag her son onto #ThisMorning because she “thinks” he has Aspergers. Why not get it diagnosed properly?

@MissDLloyd really really cruel that you should subject your son to humiliation like that. To do this in public to him is horrific

Why hold Danielle Lloyd interview in front of her child? Does a four year old need to hear this? #ThisMorning

If you keep telling your son they’re odd and different they will start acting it. Shocked at @thismorning ..@MissDLloyd ?

Anything to get on TV Danielle Lloyd. Shame on you for using your son. If you were my mum I’d be socially awkward too! #ThisMorning
