The former midfielder of "Manchester United" has decided to stop his television activities.
Idman.Biz reports that Paul, who has been working as a football expert on air for some time, had to take this step due to his son's severe autism.
20-year-old Ayden Scholes needs constant parental supervision. He was diagnosed with non-verbal autism as a child. Ayden cannot speak and expresses his feelings in other ways - he bites and scratches himself and others. Sometimes the scratches on Paul Scholes' face during training attracted attention, but he did not want to explain the reason for this.
Five years ago, Scholes' wife (after 27 years of marriage) left him, but the couple now take turns caring for their son. Each of them stays with their sick child for three nights. Thus, a stable regime is maintained in Ayden's life. For example, every Tuesday Paul takes his son swimming, then they eat pizza together.
Recently, the situation has become even more difficult, Ayden has grown up and gained weight. Paul Scholes has not appeared in any match as a television expert this season. The legend of "Manchester United" admitted that from now on he will build all his plans according to the needs of his son. He also posted a photo with his son on his social media profile.
