Actor and Wrexham AFC co-owner Rob McElhenney has shared a touching message to fans after being diagnosed with “a host of neurodevelopmental disorders and learning disabilities” at the age of 46.
The It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia star said he wanted to remind others with similar conditions that they were “not alone”.

“It’s not something I would normally talk about publicly but I figured there are others who struggle with similar things and I wanted to remind you that you’re not alone.
“You’re not stupid. You’re not ‘bad’. It might feel that way sometimes. But it’s not true.”
McElhenney has recently become a popular figure in the UK along with Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds, after taking over Welsh football club Wrexham FC.
Fans of the club previously praised the Hollywood duo for their investment after Wrexham was promoted to the English Football League in May after a 15-year absence.
