The View host Sunny Hostin has revealed for the first time that her 17-year-old daughter suffers from a rare disability, while opening up about the ‘struggle’ her family has faced as a result of the teen’s condition.

Appearing on a new episode of The View’s Behind the Table podcast, the 54-year-old revealed that her daughter Paloma, now 17, was born with Brown syndrome – a rare condition which limits the movement of the tendon that attaches to the outside of the eye.

Sunny said her daughter has special devices to help her read, as she declared: ‘It’s not anything to be ashamed of.’

‘Paloma has something called Brown’s disease, that I don’t think I’ve ever shared publicly, but I will share it,’ she said.

‘She was born with it and it’s an eye condition where your eyes… there are muscles in your eyes and one is shorter than the other, and so when you’re reading, you can’t track and that’s pretty difficult because one eye moves one way, and one eye moves another way.’
