Admittedly gifted (7)
I believe the answer is:
granted
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'admittedly' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'gifted' is the second definition.
(granting is a kind of gifting)
(Other definitions for granted that I've seen before include "OK - allowed" , "Admitted" , "Conceded" , "Admittedly; gave formally" , "Given; allowed" .)
