Born Sadie Liza Vaughan, her parents were psychedelic artist David Vaughan, who did work for The Beatles, and his then-16-year-old muse, actress Mary Davidson.Her childhood she describes as "chaotic but positive experience," being born in Primrose Hill, but spending much of her youth in Ashton-under-Lyne, Greater Manchester after her parents separated. Her parents had six relationships between them, and although Sadie is the oldest they produced four sisters and five brothers for her: including fellow actresses Holly Davidson and Jade Davidson; a brother called Gabriel Jupiter and a sister named Sunshine Purple Tara Velvet. According to Frost, one of her stepfathers was a follower of the Bhagwan cult, who forbade the children to say the words “No” or “Sorry”, and during her father's colour-therapy phase, he insisted that everybody in the house wear orange, and wouldn’t let them eat anything that was red. They also had to take showers wearing tracksuits and were made to refer to objects as the most opposite they could think of as a test of character, for example calling apples elephants.
A occasional target of the British tabloid press, in part thanks to her friendship with model Kate Moss, and also her own comments that “Men, being in love, being treated like a princess” have always been “a huge force” in her life. Resultantly she dislikes her own hot-headedness, and gossip mongers.
Whilst aged 16 and dancing in a music video, she met Spandau Ballet's Gary Kemp and the couple married on May 7, 1988, and later had a son, Finlay Munro (born September 20, 1990). After an affair with actor Jude Law, she divorced Kemp in 1997, and married Law on September 2, 1997. The couple had three children: son Rafferty (born October 6, 1996), daughter Iris (born October 25, 2000) and son Rudy Indiana Otis (born September 10, 2002). After Law's many affairs, the couple finalised their divorce on October 29, 2003 with Frost alleging mental cruelty by Law, resulting in her need for treatment for post natal depression. After a stressful two year negotiation, during which Frost was prescribed betablockers to manage a bout of panic attacks, in 2005 the couple reached a divorce settlement, with Frost keeping the couple's £2million house in Primrose Hill, and receiving a £4million payment and £15,000 a month. Frost has since had a series of relationships with various men, mostly younger actors.
A practitioner of Kundalini yoga introduced to her by James Malfoy-Sparks,[5] Frost has a number of charity commitments. In March 2006, Frost flew to South Africa to part-fund an orphanage for the Homes of Hope project. In September 2006 she posed nude for American photographer Brian Adams for a PETA anti-fur ad to coincide with London Fashion Week.
Her nick name is "Little Liza".
