Sadie Liza Vaughan was born on June 19, 1965, in London, England. This girl has four sisters and five brothers, and her father, David, is a left-wing anarchist who also did some work for The Beatles.
Her bohemian childhood -- she has a sister named Sunshine Tara Purple Velvet and a brother named Gabriel Jupiter --- led to her decision to run away from home as a teenager, although she had already established herself as an up-and-coming actress by then (she landed her first job at the tender age of 3, with a toy commercial). Her teen years were rambunctious and rebellious, and her acting work was virtually non-existent during this period.
Vaughan met and married her first husband, Gary Kemp, before she turned 21, and the relationship produced a son named Finlay. Kemp, best known for his participation in the '80s band Spandau Ballet, received critical acclaim for his work in 1990's The Krays, in which he appeared with Sadie and played a notorious British gangster.
The couple went on to appear in two more movies together, one of which was filmed while they were separated (the film, 1994's Magic Hunter, even required the two to participate in a love scene).
