Sadie Frost

Sadie Frost (born Sadie Liza Vaughan on June 19, 1967), is an English actress probably best known for her six-year marriage to English actor Jude Law which has made her a staple of the English tabloids.

She was born in London. Her father, David Vaughan, was a psychedelic artist who did work for the Beatles. Her parents were sixteen and seventeen when Sadie was born. She had a somewhat unconventional childhood, with numerous siblings and step-siblings, including a sister named Sunshine Purple Tara Velvet. She was brought up in Primrose Hill London but spent quite a lot of her youth in Ashton under Lyne in the 1970s when Vaughan separated from her mother.

Regularly featured in tabloid and gossip magazines, she is better known for her series of high-profile relationships than her own film and television work. At the age of five, she appeared with Morecambe and Wise. She studied acting at the Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts. When nineteen, she joined the Manchester Royal Exchange Theatre to appear in Mumbo Jumbo. The majority of her film credits have been brief supporting roles in mostly forgettable films, however she made a memorable appearance as vampire Lucy Westenra in Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992).. She also featured in the video for Pulp's "Common People".

Frost has been married twice. She married first husband, Spandau Ballet's Gary Kemp on May 7, 1988 and with him she has a son, Finlay Munro, born on September 20, 1990. They divorced in 1997. She married Jude Law on September 2, 1997, and with him she has three children: son Rafferty (born October 6, 1996), daughter Iris (born October 25, 2000) and son Rudy Indiana Otis (born September 10, 2002). They divorced in 2003.

Since her divorce from Law, Frost has had one unsuccessful venture as a talk-show host, notably interviewing the Libertines and declaring that "she wouldn't normally be a groupie, but for the Libertines, maybe."

She co-owns the fashion label Frost French and has been a vegetarian since birth.
