Presenter and acid attack survivor Katie Piper was attending V Festival last weekend when she made the revelations to the Mirror Online.
Admitting that the enduring health complications from her attack have recently had a major impact upon her health, the mother-of-one said: “I got pregnant really easily with Belle, but now I’ve got a problem with my oesophagus. If I eat anything it gets stuck and I choke, because when acid was thrown over me I swallowed some of it and it burned my throat.”
While the 31-year-old has been taking vitamin shakes to try and keep her nutrition and weight up, she admits that she doesn’t have “enough vitamins” to help her to make a baby.
Katie, who recently got engaged to her long-term partner, is now considering adopting a child from her own charity organisation.
“There are a lot of kids with burns and parents who have neglected them, and I would like to adopt,” she added.
We wish Katie all the best as she continues to fight on. She is such an inspiration.
