A nurse who was falsely accused of carrying a psychiatric patient's baby has spoken of her ordeal for the first time after winning £25,000 at an employment tribunal.
Jessica Thorpe, 31, was forced to leave the profession after the male in her care made up the bizarre allegation about her being pregnant with his child.
Despite there being absolutely no truth in the claim, the former nurse - who is now a successful influencer - was immediately suspended from her job in April 2020.
In October 2022, she was eventually told she could continue her work with Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust.
However, she resigned a month later as she believed her bosses had failed to address gossip about her among her colleagues.
