The artist, who disclosed her experience of losing a pregnancy while shooting for the US show Pennyworth, made an appearance on the BBC program last Saturday (June 8). She was there to promote her upcoming album, The Glorification of Sadness.

An online troublemaker expressed dissatisfaction with the appearance of the vocalist on the program and typed on a social media platform: "Individuals who are incredibly vexatious and irritating consistently utilize ADHD as a reason for acting troublesome."

In a recent blog post that received many positive comments from her supporters, Faith responded with anger to someone who insulted her by stating: "I want to inform you that I suffer from ADHD, you ignorant person."

ADHD is a condition that impacts a person's actions. Those who have it may feel unsettled, struggle to focus, and be more likely to act impulsively.

Many individuals are diagnosed with ADHD during childhood, typically before they turn 12. However, there are some who are diagnosed later on in life. As per the organization ADHD UK, approximately 2.6 million individuals in the UK suffer from this disorder. Unfortunately, only 600,000 have received an official diagnosis.

On Saturday Kitchen, Faith made an appearance with chef Julie Lin and Tom Kitchen, together with the host Matt Tebutt.

The vocalist and performer received praise for her remark, and her supporters have gathered on social media platforms to show their support.

One admirer mentioned, "Previously, I had a strong fondness for you, but now, I have a profound love for you," while another expressed, "Way to go, Paloma!!"

Earlier this week, Faith expressed her opinion that fathers should not be excessively praised or celebrated for fulfilling their role as a parent.

The vocalist, who has two daughters with her previous mate of a decade, Leyman Lahcine, stated that she does not fancy the term "co-parent" as it indicates a 50/50 agreement, which she disagrees with.

Last October, Faith provided her initial comprehensive interview following her separation from Lahcine. She disclosed that she felt shattered but also content and undamaged.

The Independent was informed by her that the separation has caused her to feel shattered in certain aspects, but on the other hand, she feels complete. She is secure in terms of finances, possesses her own property, and is a mother as well. In the event that she meets a man, she doesn't require any additional support aside from them helping each other grow.
