Orlando: I'm Dyslexic

British actor Orlando Bloom has always striven to work harder since he was diagnosed with dyslexia as a child.

The Pirates of the Caribbean heart-throb has always had to put in extra effort to overcome his learning disability.

He says, "I'm dyslexic so school was always a bit tricky. But I got all my exams and degrees - I just had to work harder.

"Dyslexia is not due to lack of intelligence, it's a lack of access. It's like, if you're dyslexic, you have all the information you need, but find it harder to process."
