Susan Boyle diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome

Susan Boyle has revealed she has been diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome.

The Scottish singer, who shot to fame after appearing on Britain’s Got Talent in 2009, had spent years believing she suffered slight brain damage at birth.

Susan Boyle, 52, told The Observer of her relief at finally getting a “clearer understanding” of her condition.

She added: “It will not make any difference to my life.”

Asperger’s is a form of autism which typically means people with the condition struggle with their emotions and have difficulty in social situations, often unable to pick up on non-verbal cues.

Susan Boyle revealed she was misdiagnosed after complications at birth.

She said: “It was the wrong diagnosis when I was a kid.

“I was told I had brain damage. I always knew it was an unfair label. Now I have a clearer understanding of what’s wrong and I feel relieved and a bit more relaxed about myself.”

Susan Boyle has gone on to become one of the best-selling British female artists and recently had a cameo role in the festive film The Christmas Candle.
