In an interview with The Guardian, Ramsey reflected on navigating fame at a young age and discussed how it feels to compare their success to others their age.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve always felt slightly on the outside, too old and too young at the same time,\u201d they said, speaking about how they often feel like the \u201codd one out\u201d among their peers.<\/p>\n
Ramsey, who recently revealed their autism diagnosis, added: \u201cIt\u2019s probably a neurodiverse thing as well.<\/p>\n
\u201cI just felt like I couldn\u2019t access anyone, or that people couldn\u2019t access me. I just felt a bit strange.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ramsey discussed their starring role in CBBC series The Worst Witch, an adaptation of Jill Murphy\u2019s popular book series, saying it was \u201cterrible\u201d to be \u201caway from home for 16 weeks\u201d to film the show.<\/p>\n

Bella Ramsey started their career aged 11 (Suzan Moore\/PA)<\/p>\n
They said: \u201c(I was) home at weekends, but in a hotel room by myself at age 11.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was put in an interconnecting room with (a co-star) who was 10 and told that I was to help look after her.<\/p>\n
\u201cI felt like I could just do it. I didn\u2019t feel that young. Now I look at 11-year-olds and I\u2019m like, \u2018God, you\u2019re tiny\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Nottingham-born star described the experience as \u201cone of the worst times and the best times of my young little life\u201d, adding: \u201cI guess it sealed the thing that was already there, of being older than I was.\u201d<\/p>\n
Buying a house is impossible now, and it\u2019s only because I ended up in this industry that pays people too much money, that I\u2019ve been able to do it. It just feels like a glitch in the system. I feel so embarrassed by it<\/p>\n

Ramsey also discussed buying their first flat at 22 and told the newspaper: \u201cIt feels very wrong! You\u2019re not supposed to do that until you\u2019re older.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve done it a bit early. I started working when I was 11 and I\u2019m now 22, so it\u2019s been 10 years.<\/p>\n
\u201cI guess people maybe start working when they\u2019re 21 and then buy a house when they\u2019re 31, so I don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n
