Kelly Clarkson Cried Over Henry Winkler’s Advice To Her Daughter, Who’s Being Bullied For Her Dyslexia In School
This week, Barry star and author Henry Winkler appeared on The Kelly Clarkson Show, where he had a beautiful conversation with the Grammy-winning host about dyslexia.
Henry enthusiastically replied, “I have books for her!” Kelly said, “I know. I have them!” She added that her daughter’s school gave an empowering presentation about dyslexia and how 1 in 5 children have it, and how several successful people have it.
Henry proceeded to turn to the camera and address Kelly’s daughter. “River, how you learn has nothing to do with how brilliant you are.”
Kelly was moved to tears.
You could tell that she really appreciated that moment.
I love how vulnerable Kelly was sharing that, and how Henry gave such simple but poignant advice.
