Zara recently revealed to her followers what living with her partner Sam is like

The former Made In Chelsea star, 32, was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 30, and since his diagnosis, he teamed up with ADHD UK to positively change what it means to live with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

During an Instagram Q&A earlier this month, a follower asked Zara: ‘How do you find living with someone with ADHD? I have it and wonder how my partner feels x’.

Zara then honestly revealed to the follower that she ‘loves Sam for who he is’ and claimed ‘we all have our quirks and individuality, neurodivergent or not.’

She said: ‘At the end of the day, we all have our quirks and individuality, neurodivergent or not! (love heart emoji) I don’t like to think I’d be any different of a person/partner if I was with someone who didn’t have ADHD.

‘And I don’t really see it as a separate thing to my partner, it’s just part of my partner and I totally love him for who he is!’

She continued: ‘Perhaps I could argue that at times I have to be quite patient; people probably think Sam is bouncing off the walls all the time at home but that couldn’t be further from the truth!’

‘He’s always his most relaxed at home, I would say I’m probably more energetic than him when we are home together!’

‘His job requires so much energy constantly that I think home time is his “recharge” time (laughing emoji)’

‘I like to let him have his own time in the evening’s as that’s really important for him with his neurodivergence,’

‘He often just needs a little reset from the world which is totally ok and I’ve never once made him feel like that’s not ok, because it totally is! (love heart emojis)’

The news comes after Zara put on a dazzling display as she attended the Pride Of Britain awards in a dramatic black and silver ballgown last month
