British singing star Robbie Williams has opened up about wanting to retake his GCSEs after leaving school early.
English singer Robbie Williams opened up in the press. He explained to the Mirror that he suffers from dyslexia and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
“I never got better than Ds and everything else, I either completely failed or I didn't even go. I really want to get back into it and get those degrees,” he explained.
Robbie Williams, who will play himself in a film retracing his life (“Better Man”, January 22 in cinemas), also said he plans to return to studies by joining university. He does not rule out the possibility of filming his studious adventures and making them into a reality TV show.
The opportunity for him to highlight his personal problems, such as dyslexia, from which he has always suffered: “All my life, I felt stupid because dyslexia was not known in the 1970s in Stoke-on -Trent (his hometown, Editor’s note). I suffer from dyslexia, dyscalculia and ADHD (attention deficit disorder) but none of this was known at the time. So I left school thinking I was just stupid. It took me years to get over it,” he continued.
Dyslexia is a written language disorder. It manifests itself in difficulties reading, writing and spelling elements. Dyscalculia is an impairment of the ability to understand and use numbers as well as geometric representations. For Robbie Williams, the problem is such that he told the Sun that he was “unable to remember his children's birthdays or his wedding.”
