LOVE Island contestant Alicia Douvall has revealed she does not know the alphabet because she is dyslexic.
The blonde was branded Britain's dimmest celebrity after failing to recite her A to Z, muddling the letters G and J during one of the tasks on the ITV show.
Covering up the condition, she told other contestants: "I've never needed my alphabet - I can do the splits."
Now the 27-year-old single mum has put down her failure to dyslexia, which she says went undiagnosed by her posh Surrey school and was dismissed by her father as a "bull disease".
She said: "The school didn't understand dyslexia at all - they branded me thick. So I was brought up to believe I was stupid."
Alicia, who has had six breast enlargements, three nose jobs, liposuction and a tummy tuck, was expelled from school at 15.
She fell pregnant and moved into a hostel where she began bringing up her baby daughter Georgia.
She added: "It was the worst possible experience. It was that which made me determined to get away and make something of my life, for Georgie."
