Anne Hegerty has opened up about how she struggled during school

She's known for being the terrifying Chaser that no one wants to come up against no matter how smart they claim to be, but it seems like things weren't always this way.

The Governess has opened up about with struggle with Asperger's in the past, but has never gone into detail.

She has now revealed that she was actually the bottom of the class throughout her schooling life.

She explains;

"I was sort of nerdy. It took me an awfully long time to actually work out that you had to do stuff like homework."

“I came from a family where my mother had been very pressured by her own parents and she was determined she wasn’t going to be a pushy mum.”

“So as a result I was never encouraged to do anything at school.”

 “I went to a new school and what I’d had no idea about was that at the end of each month they published everybody’s grades in every subject.

“And I was right down the bottom of the class because I hadn’t been doing any work.”

You'd never know now, she is such a confident and smart woman!
