Early life
Frost was born in Islington, North London, in 1965 to actress Mary Davidson, who was sixteen at the time of Sadie's birth, and psychedelic artist David Vaughan, in his second marriage, who worked for the Beatles. Frost's sister, daughter of Davidson and Vaughan, named Sunshine Purple Tara Velvet, is one year younger.
She has described her childhood as a "chaotic but positive experience". She spent much of her youth in Ashton-under-Lyne, Lancashire, after her parents separated. She has ten siblings, including fellow actresses Holly Davidson and Jade Davidson; primary school teacher Jessi Frost; and brothers called Gabriel Jupiter Vaughan and Tobias Vaughan.
