Ana Peleteiro describes difficulties connecting with her husband’s older children
Athlete Ana Peleteiro says she faces difficulties building a bond with her husband’s three children from an earlier relationship.
The children live in France with their mother and visit Peleteiro and her husband, fellow athlete Benjamin Compaoré, during school holidays.
Peleteiro says she can contact them only when they are staying at her home, and that communication with the other parent is very difficult.
She also says the children have been told that she is a bad person, making it harder to build a relationship with them.
A child left poems for Peleteiro and Compaoré before returning to France, and Peleteiro said the gesture moved her.
She said the children are part of her family and that she hopes time will improve the situation.

What people are saying
I only have contact with them when they are with me at home, with us; when they are at the other house they don't let me have contact with them.
It is very difficult to create a bond, and even more so when from the other side they are told that I am something bad.
They are part of my family, I adore them and every time we are together it is the best thing that can happen to us.
When we woke up, we found them at the foot of the bed. I was so moved.
