Anne-Marie: Being an 'empath' helps me write songs

Anne-Marie has told ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 5 Live's Nihal Arthnayake that being highly sensitive to other people's emotions has made her a better writer.

The singer said she suffers from anxiety and found out she was an 'empath' after searching online.

She said: "Sometimes when I haven't got anything to write about, I can speak to someone and I can fully feel [what they've been through]."
