Just wondering what the outlook is for born UK citizens taking the IELTS.

Is it respectfully easy or quite a challange? Wondering if anyone has not managed to get the score they wanted!

Any help will be appreciated and good luck to anyone taking it soon :)

You technically don't "fail" IELTS - you either reach your desired scores or don't - it shouldn't be a problem for native speakers as long as you practice before hand. Go over some of the free online tests a few times - just to get a feel of what the format / the questions are like. The listening part was the part I had to get use to since it's sort of rapid fire - it's quick and you had to answer questions based on the short passages in a short period of time.
