Justine Waddell was born in Johannesburg, South Africa in 1976 and moved with her family to Scotland when she was eleven. Some four years later they moved to London. She is the only member of her family to take up a career in acting. She read Social and Political Science at Emmanuel College, Cambridge who allowed her to take time off from her studies to pursue her career.
