Little Mix’s Perrie Edwards has no sense of smell - and can’t tell when she breaks really disgusting wind.

The singer, 23, suffered complications with her ear, nose and throat as a child, and it left her unable to get a whiff of anything. Especially when she does a bad fart.

Speaking on This Morning , Jesy Nelson revealed the extent of her bandmate’s affliction.

“The worst bit is when Perrie does it and doesn’t know how bad it is!” she said.

Perrie then bashfully defended her trump habit, saying: “I don’t do that - I’m a lady!”

But not all is lost for the star, as she reminded Phillip Schofield she can’t smell everyone else's wind.

When he mentioned about people farting in lifts, Perrie chipped in: “I’d be surrounded by poo particles and I’d have no idea.”

Perrie was forced to undergo a series of operations as a youngster to widen her oesophagus.

The operation caused a scar on her stomach, which she’s talked about in Little Mix’s new book, Our World.

"I've got a scar like a little wiggly worm that runs all the way down my front and through my belly button,” she explains.

Perrie's been unable to smell since birth, due to the rare condition called congenital anosmia, but admits she 'thinks' she once smelled coffee.

"People are always like, 'Oh, isn't that really horrible?' and I'm like, 'No', because I've never known what it's like to smell. If I'd had it and then it disappeared I'd be like, 'Argh'," she told BBC Newsbeat back in 2013.

"I wear the same perfume all the time, because everyone says, 'Oh you smell nice' and then I'm like, 'Ah, OK'."
