She's starred opposite Daniel Craig and Heath Ledger, but it's her real-life leading men who have made her a paparazzi favourite. A close-up of Sienna Miller, trendsetter and heartbreaker.
Sienna Rose Miller was born on 28 December, 1981, in New York City to Jo and Ed Miller. Her mother, Jo Miller, who is South African, ran the Lee Strasberg drama school in London, and was once David Bowie's secretary; her father, Ed Miller, was an American banker and later became a Chinese art dealer.
When she was six, Sienna's parents divorced. Her father went on to marry the English interior designer, Kelly Hoppen, but this marriage also ended in divorce 15 years later. Ed Miller has gone on to marry twice since this.
As a result of this extensive family, Sienna has one sister, Savannah, who is a fashion designer, two half brothers, Charles and Stephen, and a stepsister, Natasha, who is the daughter of Hoppen.
At just eighteen months old, Sienna moved with her family to London, England, where she was raised in Parsons Green, South West London. She attended Heathfield St. Mary's School, a prestigious all girls boarding school in Ascot, Berkshire. At school she was noted as outgoing and mischievous, apparently beating the boarding school blues by making lots of friends and engaging in numerous school girl pranks. Sienna then went on to enrol in the Lee Strasberg Institute in New York for a year, where she studied acting under the accomplished actor Michael Margotta.
