Patsy Campo, 25
Influencer Patsy Field will become the latest disabled contestant to star on Love Island, MailOnline can reveal
Influencer Patsy Field will become the latest disabled contestant to star in Love Island, MailOnline revealed this week.
The Londoner, 25, was born with Erb’s palsy, which developed during her traumatic birth at Lewisham hospital.
Patsy has said she should have been born by caesarean section, but doctors made the crucial mistake of having her born naturally, resulting in a defect she has had to overcome throughout her life.
The condition means her right arm is shorter and cannot function as well as her left, and Patsy admits she has felt “self-conscious” but has learned to accept it throughout her adulthood.
She follows in the footsteps of Tasha Ghouri, who was the first deaf Islander to star in the ITV2 dating series, visually impaired Ron Hall, and Hugo Hammond, who was born with clubfoot.
Explaining his condition on social media, he said: ‘One thing you guys don’t know about me is that I have a disability. I’ve never talked about it here before because, to be honest, I’m a little self-conscious.
The Londoner was born with Erb’s palsy, which developed during her traumatic birth at Lewisham hospital.
‘It’s a disability I’ve had literally since I was born. All my close friends and family know this.
‘Almost everyone says they haven’t noticed it, or they’ve never noticed it before, but once I tell you, go back and watch 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 mum’s womb and the hospital screwed up and gave me a disability, Lewisham hospital, you bastards.
‘It 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 weighed almost 11 pounds, a normal baby weighs like 7 pounds. I got stuck getting out of my mother… and they were pulling and pulling and pulling and in the process of pulling me out, they did some damage to me.
‘They snapped the nerve that sends messages from my brain to my spine to my right arm, messages are trying to be sent and this computer says no.
“As a result, I have a disability called Erb’s palsy and my arm never grew that long and it doesn’t really do anything, they are completely different lengths.”
