Early Life

Helena Bonham Carter was born on May 26, 1966, in Islington, London, England. She grew up in Golders Green with mother Elena (a psychotherapist), father Raymond (a merchant banker), and older brothers Edward and Thomas. Raymond, who passed away in 2004, was the son of politician/feminist Violet Bonham Carter, and Elena's father was diplomat Eduardo Propper de Callejón. When Helena was 5 years old, her mother suffered a nervous breakdown and took three years to recover, and the experience inspired Elena to become a psychotherapist. Five years after Elena recovered, Raymond was diagnosed with acoustic neuroma and had a stroke after complications arose during surgery to remove the tumor. After the stroke, Raymond was half-paralyzed and wheelchair-bound. Bonham Carter attended South Hampstead High School and Westminster School, and King's College, Cambridge denied her admission, fearing that Helena would leave school to focus on acting. At age 13, she was runner-up in a national writing contest and used her winnings to enter her photo into the "Spotlight" casting directory. Bonham Carter soon signed with an agent and landed her first acting job, a commercial, at 16.
