The couple were married for ten years, walking down the aisle in 1990 before parting ways in 2000.Carol has previously spoken candidly about her son’s learning disabilities – he has severe dyslexia, ADD and ADHD – and how proud she is of his achievements. She told the Daily Mail in 2021 that she noticed something was different about him very early on and described trying to teach him the ABCs was difficult and he was often disruptive – but she never doubted his brilliance. She said: ‘By six, this child I loved so much, that I would have done anything for, was being rejected — by the school, by the teachers, by the other pupils. It was heart-breaking, utterly heart-breaking.’And I was lost. Was I going to have to teach him at home, myself? How? I just wasn’t equipped. I didn’t know how to teach a child with this level of special needs.’When Cameron was awarded a master’s degree from Dundee University, Carol congratulated him on social media.She referenced his learning difficulties which she had feared would hold him back in life.’That we are here, with him gaining a master’s is down to Cameron, and his determination,’ she said.’I could not be prouder of how he has done this, because frankly I didn’t know how it would be possible. The gap between how I thought children learned and how he needed to learn was so vast.’But he has been teaching me. I’m still learning from him. There’s so much about education, about the brain, about how we learn that I simply did not know. Things that we, as a society, need to know’.She told the Daily Mail at the time: ‘I knew he wasn’t thick, or slow, or any of those things that he and children like him are often told. I always thought he was brilliantly bright. He is.’ During the interview Cameron interjected: ‘Oh, I still think I’m an idiot, but I would now question how we define intelligence. Mum downplays her role, but I wouldn’t be here without her. She wouldn’t give up on me,’ he said.
