Paddy McGuinness was left mortified when his two-year-old daughter started "swearing like a docker".
The 45-year-old presenter – who also has five-year-old twins Leo and Penelope with wife Christine – was left feeling worried when his youngest child Felicity repeated a curse word he let slip out while he was stretching in the morning, and continued to say it as he dropped her off at nursery.
Speaking on Instagram, he said: "I have had an absolute western this morning. I had a little stretch and I said ‘oh s**t’ and my daughter who’s not even three yet, said it back. I didn’t even know she was there.
"I didn’t say anything, but she said it again. I ignored it, but then she said it about 20 times.
"I took her into nursery and she was still saying it into nursery.
"I’ve got to pick her up later and I’ve got a feeling social services will be there. I’m in the s**t."
The ‘Top Gear’ host captioned the post: "That moment when the kids hear you swear for the first time and repeat it! Tried not to react but it’s too late. My two-year-old is now swearing like a docker!!! #friday #fridayvibes #ohshit #parentingproblems (sic)"
Meanwhile, Paddy’s wife Christine previously opened up about finding it hard" to "manage their time" with Felicity and their twins, who both have autism, and revealed that she’s "done" with having children.
‘The Real Housewives of Cheshire’ star explained: "[We] wanted six children – but we are done, not because we don’t want another autistic child, but we are stretched because the children do have autism, it’s hard to manage your time."
