"Every doctor, every person I've ever met, said, 'You'd be much happier if you were 30 percent less intelligent," Kate explained. "It's not really doing me any good. It's really not helpful to me in my career. I just think it might have been a handicap actually," she added.

Kate, by the way, was educated at the prestigious Oxford College, where she studied French and Russian literature. In addition, she can speak fluent Russian. However, she gave up studying so she could fully dedicate herself to her acting career.
She was born in London but moved to the United States in the late 1990s.
