“It’s my little oddity that I’m really proud of,” she told American men’s magazine. “It makes me different.”
Gemma Arterton was born with six fingers but underwent hand surgery to remove the extra finger
After undergoing an operation as a child to have the extra digits removed, she still has bumpy scars as remainders of her extra limbs. The condition in which people possess an extra finger is called Polydactyly.

The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) graduate was also born with a “crumpled ear” that had to be corrected with surgery.

Gemma’s white suede boots feature a curved slit at the front with a high rise at the ankles, which makes them so modern. These heels don’t need any other intricate details since the silhouette alone makes them striking enough. They also feature peep toes and 4.3-inch heels.
