Her father is Tariq Anwar and her mother is Shireen Anwar. Anwar attended Laleham Church of England Primary and Middle School from 1975 to 1982.

Gabrielle Anwar’s 5 most popular quotes

1. I want to be the best version of myself – intellectually, emotionally, and physically. So I like to wear clothes that I feel comfortable in, that reflect that.
2. I have this threadbare caftan from the ’60s that I got at a vintage store years ago – it’s basically a muumuu. My friends are astonished that I wear it, but I love it. It’s this light fabric that just moves with me.
3. I’ve been hounded by a reputation of being difficult when really what I’m being is truthful and honest. And I think that’s been a thorn in my side.
4. I always get a little anxious like the first day of school when we’ve had our hiatus and we’re coming back, because I think I’m not as insane as I was when we started shooting. I have that anxiety before we start shooting.
5. I shop at a lot of vintage stores because the prices are amazing, and I love the idea that there’s a history behind the piece I’m wearing.

• I can understand why some people might look at me and say, ‘What’s she got to be depressed about?’ I get that a lot in Britain, where mental health issues seem to be a big taboo.
• It’s much easier to write when you’re sad. But you can end up isolated and depressed because you almost need to put yourself in that situation to have that angst to write from.
• I like singer-songwriters, and I find sad songs comforting rather than depressing. It makes you realise you’re not alone in the world.
• It was only cool to have blond hair and be a surfer chick [in Sydney]. I could learn how to surf, but I still looked Italian. It took me a long time to realize that was a good thing.
• I’ve done a lot of partying in my time because I didn’t want to go home and I didn’t know what to do.
