Georgia Steel on Dyslexia: "People think I'm stupid"

The Hidden 20%

To mark Dyslexia Awareness Week, we knew our guest would need to be an absolute "bombshell".

Georgia Steel, rose to fame on Love Island in 2018 for her bold personality and trademark "loyalty." But Georgia is much more than a reality TV star. As a proud dyslexic, she uses her platform to challenge the stigma around learning difficulties.

In this chat with Ben, she opens up about facing online abuse for being Dyslexic, being vulnerable to manipulation, and the reality of life as a model, influencer, and TV personality.
