Anthony Hopkins is disputing his wife Stella Arroyave’s belief that he has autism.

“I’m obsessed with numbers. I’m obsessed with detail. I like everything in order. And memorizing,” the Oscar winner, 87, told the Sunday Times in an interview published Saturday

“Stella looked it up and she said, ‘You must be Asperger’s,'” he said about his wife of over 20 years.

“I didn’t know what the hell she was talking about,” Hopkins added. “I don’t even believe it.”

Asperger’s Syndrome is a diagnosis that has not been formally used since 2013. Now, it falls under the broader umbrella of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), according to the Cleveland Clinic .

ASD, per the Mayo Clinic , is a condition related to brain development that affects how people see others and socialize with them.
