Football pundit Michael Owen says he has opened up about his son’s rare eye condition in a new interview. He describes practical ways he supports his child’s needs, including cutting his food up and reading restaurant menus to him.

Owen also comments on his emotional response to the diagnosis, saying he “blamed himself.” The reports focus on the personal details he shares rather than clinical information about the specific condition, its causes, or treatment. The coverage is consistent across outlets in highlighting Owen’s account of day-to-day adjustments and his reflection on responsibility after learning of the eye problem.

While the articles use similar wording and framing, they mainly differ in the amount of detail about the interview itself rather than the core facts presented: Owen publicly discusses his son’s condition and the support he provides, alongside his reaction to the diagnosis.
