Natural extrovert, you said, ultimately seen in nude, is playful (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

unstudied

'natural' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'extrovert you said ultimately seen in nude is playful' is the wordplay.
'ultimately' says to take the final letters.
'seen in' is an insertion indicator.
'playful' is an anagram indicator.
The last letters of 'extrovert you said' are 'tud'.
'nude'+'is'='nudeis'
'nudeis' anagrammed gives 'unsied'.
'tud' going inside 'unsied' is 'UNSTUDIED'.

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
