Yes Justine and her husband Steve Cordule no longer appear in Large families, life in XXL on TF1, they remain very present in the media landscape. Indeed, the couple gives daily news on social networks. But their notoriety sometimes meets its limits. A few days ago, the mother notably had to explain herself after sharing images of one of her seven children, Tom. The little boy appeared in his corner, away from the rest of his family. Which bothered a particular internet user a lot.
“Poor Tom, he’s all alone“, we then addressed to Justine Cordule. The pretty blonde who recently gave birth to her last baby, Lyson, wasted no time in reacting to this remark. “We go to the restaurant and during the day, I receive this kind of message. For those who are unaware, Tom has autism. He likes to be alone. He likes to be away from us sometimes because he needs it and the children tease him. He wants to be quiet“, she explained. And to ensure that her little Tom was doing could not be better: “We leave him alone in the restaurant and no, he is not unhappy. He is very well on his little table“.
Over time, Justine Cordule and her husband have come to know the reactions and desires of their son somewhat different from their other children. His upbringing, however, was no small feat. During an interview for Jordan De Luxe for Entertainment TVthe couple also revealed that they had been forced to deliver real battles to get him schooled after he was diagnosed with autism. “In the first years of primary school, we encountered problems with the teaching staff. The teachers didn’t want him“, confided Steve. And to add: “The teachers were looking for excuses by telling us that he could be violent, when this is absolutely false.“
Fortunately, Tom can now go to school like everyone else, while being supervised by “an AVS” (Accompanying students with disabilities).
