Anne Hegerty, 66, from The Chase, shared her worries about dating. She talked about how her longest relationship only lasted four months and that she has never had children.

Anne Hegerty, known from The Chase, shared that her biggest fear about dating is having a man invade her personal space.

The quizzer, who was diagnosed with autism at 45, opened up about her challenges, mentioning a time when she unplugged her phone to stop a boyfriend from contacting her.

At The Paul Strank Roofing Charity Gala in Kensington, London, she honestly said that she thinks she would make a terrible partner.

Anne, 66, said, “I really struggle with being close to others and having anyone else in the house.

“I think a lot of autistic people don’t get married or settle down.”

Anne explained, “I don’t even have pets because of this, and my ability to live with other people is getting smaller. I need a lot of alone time.

“I always feel like I need more space than anyone can give me. If I wanted a relationship, I could find one, but honestly, I don’t.”

She also mentioned that her longest relationship only lasted four months. Reflecting on that time, she said, “It only worked for those few months because I was in Manchester. I kind of set it up so it wouldn’t last.”

In the end, she wrote to him to end things. “I remember crying with relief and then crying with guilt,” she shared.

Anne felt overwhelmed during that relationship. “Sometimes, I unplugged the phone because he tried to call me every day. I just wanted it to be over.

“I’d sit there waiting for the phone to ring, thinking, ‘Don’t phone, don’t phone, don’t phone!’ Other times, to get over the waiting, I’d call him, but that made him think I wanted to talk. I really just wanted to end it. I didn’t want to talk to him or anyone!”

Anne joked that she hasn’t lacked offers from admirers who seem to like her “Mrs. Trunchbull” Governess outfit.

She said, “I’m sure some people are attracted to the whole look of The Governess. I think there are some who might be interested if they let me.”

Anne said, “I do meet attractive men, but I know it won’t work out. I feel like it’s not fair to them because I won’t treat them well.”

She added, “I always want more space than they can give me. If I wanted a relationship, I could find someone, but I don’t.”

She thinks it’s better not to date at all and enjoys having men as friends more than women. She recalled a quiz she attended in June, where a woman pointed out they were the only two women in the room, but Anne hadn’t even noticed because she was talking to her male friends.

Anne also shared that this is part of why she never had children, even though she is great with kids. “I did want children, but I knew I wouldn’t be able to handle it very well.”

About 20 years ago, two kids from her neighborhood used to come over. “We limited their visits to just one hour a day, but they always wanted to stay longer. They were wonderful kids, and we’re now friends on Facebook, but I couldn’t handle that for more than an hour.”

Anne takes her role as godmother to Mark “Beast” Labbett’s eight-year-old son, Lawrence, very seriously.

She said, “Lawrence’s birthday is at the end of November, so I usually send a birthday and Christmas present at the same time—but they are not the same gift. My parents had winter birthdays, and I knew they hated getting just one present for two celebrations.”

Anne joked that one of the gifts she gave Lawrence was a bit inappropriate—a toy crossbow. “So, weaponry,” she laughed. “But lately, I’ve been giving him Minecraft vouchers since he really loves that.”

She also mentioned that she has spent Christmas alone for the past 40 years. That’s why she’s especially happy to be playing the Fairy Godmother in this year’s panto, Cinderella, in Scarborough.

Anne, who was on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here in 2018, said, “Now that I’m in panto, I can say, ‘Sorry, I’m in Scarborough!’ and that’s my only day off.”

She sees it as a great day off. Even though many people invite her to spend Christmas with them, she prefers not to. “I don’t do Christmas dinner or a tree. When I was a kid, I just remember all the pine needles everywhere!”

Earlier this year, Anne took on another acting role, making a cameo as a neighbor in a film called Exorcising Barry, which is about a man obsessed with a demon.

Anne said that any chance of going to Hollywood is out of the question.

She explained, “America wouldn’t want me because I’m fat. I have a friend who went there for work, and even though she looks amazing, they told her she needed to lose weight. I’m fine with how I am, but they don’t like fat British actresses.”

Despite this, she has had great success in Britain. Talking about The Chase’s recent National Television Award win, she said, “I’m so happy. Bradley Walsh is amazing. It’s been 14 years, and I love it.”

She added, “Other kids used to sing in front of the mirror with a hairbrush. When I was younger, I practiced being interviewed for when I became famous. I don’t know why, but it’s always been my dream.”

It took me 3 seconds to find the snake, what about you?

Nature has its way of playing tricks on our eyes, especially when it comes to animals that have mastered the art of camouflage. Today, we present you with a mind-boggling visual challenge: can you spot the hidden snake in this image?

At first glance, the picture may seem like a random mix of leaves, twigs, and dirt. But look closer—somewhere in the image, a snake is cleverly blending into its surroundings. Do you have the sharp eyes and patience to find it? Take a deep breath, focus, and see how quickly you can spot it!

Why Is This Puzzle So Tricky?

Many people struggle with this challenge because the snake is well-camouflaged with the environment. Its colors and patterns seamlessly merge with the leaves and sticks, making it almost invisible at first glance. Here are some common reasons why people have trouble spotting the snake:

  • Your eyes are overwhelmed by the background. The forest floor is cluttered with leaves and branches, creating a pattern that hides the snake perfectly.
  • Your brain ignores smaller details. Our minds are wired to focus on larger, more obvious objects. We often overlook smaller, hidden elements.
  • You are looking for the wrong shape. Many people expect to see a perfectly coiled snake or a raised head. However, this snake is stretched out and blends with its surroundings.

Did you make any of these mistakes? Don’t worry—we’re about to guide you through the solution step by step!

Step-by-Step Guide to Finding the Hidden Snake

If you’re struggling to locate the snake, follow these steps to improve your visual focus and uncover the hidden reptile.

Step 1: Scan the Image from Top to Bottom

Instead of randomly searching, start at the top and slowly scan downward. Many people rush through the image and miss crucial details. Move your eyes methodically from one section to another.

Step 2: Look for Unusual Patterns

A snake’s scales create a different texture compared to leaves and branches. Pay attention to anything that looks slightly out of place—maybe a curve that doesn’t match the direction of the sticks or a subtle shine that hints at snake skin.

Step 3: Focus on the Middle to Right Side

If you still haven’t found it, concentrate on the middle and right side of the image. The snake is stretched out and mimics the lines of the surrounding branches. Its body follows a winding pattern similar to the twigs, making it difficult to spot.

Step 4: Find the Snake’s Head or Eyes

One of the easiest ways to identify a hidden animal is by locating its eyes. Even when a creature is camouflaged, its eyes often stand out. Try searching for two small, dark spots that could be the snake’s eyes.

Step 5: Compare the Answer with Your Guess

If you’ve already spotted the snake, congratulations! If not, don’t worry—check the red-outlined area in the provided solution image. You’ll notice the snake’s body winding through the forest floor, blending almost perfectly with the background.

The Correct Answer: The Snake Is in the Red-Outlined Area!

Now that you see it, you’re probably wondering how you missed it before! The snake’s coloring and patterns are designed to help it remain hidden from predators and prey. This incredible natural camouflage is a survival mechanism, allowing the snake to remain undetected in the wild.

Why Are Some People Faster at Spotting the Snake?

Some people find the snake in seconds, while others take much longer. Here’s why:

  • Sharp visual perception: Some individuals naturally notice small differences in patterns and colors faster than others.
  • Experience with hidden object puzzles: If you regularly do brain teasers or optical illusions, your brain is better trained to detect hidden images.
  • Attention to detail: Those who are detail-oriented tend to pick up on small irregularities faster than people who focus on the bigger picture.
  • Patience and persistence: Some people rush and give up quickly, while others take their time and scan every part of the image carefully.

If you took longer to find the snake, don’t be discouraged! The more you practice puzzles like this, the faster you’ll become at spotting hidden objects.

Why Are Camouflage and Optical Illusions So Fascinating?

This puzzle is not just a fun game—it also teaches us about the science of camouflage. Animals use camouflage to blend into their surroundings and avoid predators. Snakes, in particular, have evolved intricate color patterns to remain undetected in their environment.

Here’s why camouflage is such an incredible survival technique:

  • Predators can’t easily detect hidden prey. Snakes and other animals use camouflage to avoid being seen by birds, larger mammals, or even humans.
  • Prey animals can escape detection. Just as predators use camouflage to hunt, some animals hide using the same method to avoid being eaten.
  • It helps balance nature. The ability to blend in is a crucial part of evolution, ensuring that species survive and adapt to their surroundings.

Final Thoughts: Keep Training Your Brain!

This “find the snake” challenge is a fantastic way to sharpen your observation skills, improve your patience, and have fun at the same time. Did you spot the snake quickly, or did it take you a while? Either way, puzzles like this train your brain to recognize patterns and details better, helping you become more observant in everyday life.
