Actor Margot Robbie said it would have been a tough ride had she shot to fame like figure skater Tonya Harding without a support system.
The 27-year-old actor, who plays the title role in the biopic "I, Tonya", although believes she deals with her popularity quite well, reported Variety.
"... becoming famous at (Tonya's) age without a support network around her, and without a clear distinction, I think would have been incredibly difficult," Robbie said.
The "Suicide Squad" actor, who hails from Australia, said spending so much time away from home in Hollywood is a "bittersweet" feeling.
"It's bittersweet living outside of Australia, because I miss everyone so much, but the fact that they are so removed from it helps me keep my life and my work separate - even though they are intrinsically linked, because all I want to do is work all the time," she said.
