Patsy Field, 25 

Influencer Patsy Field will become the latest contestant with a disability to star on Love Island, MailOnline can reveal 

Influencer Patsy Field will become the latest contestant with a disability to star on Love Island, MailOnline revealed this week.

The Londoner, 25, was born with Erb’s palsy, which was developed during her traumatic birth at Lewisham hospital.

Patsy has told how she should have been born via cesarean, but doctors made the crucial error for her to be delivered naturally, resulting in a defect, which she has had to overcome her entire life.

The condition means her right arm is shorter in length and unable to function as well as her left, with Patsy admitting she has felt ‘self-conscious’ but learned to embrace it throughout adulthood.

She follows in the footsteps of Tasha Ghouri, who was the first deaf Islander to star on the ITV2 dating series, partially sighted Ron Hall, and Hugo Hammond, who was born was clubfoot.

Explaining her condition on social media, she said: ‘One thing you guys don’t know about me is I have a disability. I have never spoken about it on here before because I am a bit self-conscious about it to be honest.

‘It is a disability I’ve literally had since birth. All my close friends and family know about it.

‘Pretty much everyone says they don’t notice it, or they have never noticed it before but once I tell you go back and look through my old videos, you’ll be able to spot it.

‘So, the disability affects my right arm, I was a normal, happy, healthy baby in my mama’s womb and the hospital f***ed up and gave me a disability, Lewisham hospital, you f***ers.

‘I should have been a cesarean birth, but the midwife thought she could do it and she couldn’t… I was such a big baby, I was almost 11lb, a normal baby is like 7lb. I got stuck coming out of my mum… and they’re pulling and pulling and pulling and in the process of yanking me out, they have done some damage.

‘They snapped the nerve that sends messages down from my brain down my spine to my right arm, messages are trying to send, and this computer says no.

‘As a result, I have a disability called Erb’s Palsy and my arm never grew as much and it doesn’t do anything really, they are completely different lengths.’
