The illness is called fish-odour-syndrome - medically named Trimethylaminuria - and Kelly Fidoe-White has been diagnosed with the unusual ailment for her entire life.

She has been forced to work a job that is all night shifts to minimise human interaction.

Speaking about her condition to the Metro newspaper, she shared: ''Besides the smell itself, there are very few other symptoms at all and of course you have the side effects of anxiety, social isolation - It's hard.

''As far as I know, this condition affects 300 to 600 people worldwide - It's not very well known.''
