Saoirse Ronan said she feels like she missed out on her teenage years due to being a famous child star - but said it worth it to have been able to follow her dreams.
The 28-year-old has been in the limelight for most of her life, having first shot to fame on screen at the age of nine playing the role of Rhiannon Geraghty in RTÉ television drama The Clinic.
The young star went on to get her first ever award nomination at the tender age of 13, for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Briony Tallis in Atonement.
