The actress differed from the rest.
Gemma Arterton had a genetic peculiarity, affecting one person in a thousand.Despite this characteristic helped her in many matters.
The actress revealed being born with an extra finger on each hand. The condition known as polydactyly is quite rare. Arterton had its most common form when a small, soft boneless digit can be seen next to the little finger. Gemma’s doctor tied off her extra fingers with sutures, and they fell off, leaving just small scars
The BBC’s “Tess Of The D’Urbervilles” celebrity mentioned polydactyly ran in her family; in particular, her father and grandad had it. Due to this, they could do more stuff — faster texting, faster emailing, better guitar-playing.
“It's my little oddity that I'm really proud of. People are really interested but repulsed at the same time. My dad had them, and my grandad. I feel like we're one step ahead — a sign of things to come.”
