'As you know, I love Brown and I love studying pretty much more than anything but recently I've had so much to juggle that being a student AND fulfilling my other commitments has become a little impossible.'
Em’s break came amidst rumours she had become a target for bullying, and was struggling to handle her fame.
But a spokesman shot down the talk, revealing: 'Emma has enjoyed her time at Brown tremendously and made many friends there who she keeps in constant contact with.
'She has now decided to change university, but not for the bullying, as that is just completely untrue. She has just decided to continue with a different course.'
Now Emma has finally cleared up the rumous herself, confirming she will return to her studies – and will spend a year at Oxford as part of her course at Brown.
'I'm still a student at Brown. It's just that I'll spend my third year abroad – at Oxford,’ she explained to newspaper The Virginia Pilot.
Then I'll return to Brown to complete my last year.'
