Selina Is Younger Sister Of Brother Simon Cadell

Selina is the younger sister of actor Simon Cadell who passed away in 1996. Simon was 45 at the time of his demise.

Anyone who watched the 80s sitcom Hi-de-Hi! can notice Selina’s resemblance to Simon. He was the holiday-camp comedy’s leading man who portrayed posh-boy misfit Jeffrey Fairbrother in the first five series.

The actress says her brother significantly influenced her, “giving me so much advice; he was very, very special.” Born and raised in London, the Cadell siblings were incredibly close to each other.

Simon was a heavy smoker, something Cadell now assumes may have contributed to his premature demise.

However, the actress says she feels incredibly privileged that somebody who worked with Simon almost every time mentions him to her.

Three years junior to Simon, Selina carried on the family showbusiness tradition that started with their loving grandmother, Jean Cadell. In 1935, Jean starred as Mrx Micasber opposite WC Fields in MGM’s David Copperfield.

Simon wanted to be an actor from a very young age. She did not join him at first because she felt like she didn’t exist in her own right, but she couldn’t avoid it and eventually dive into it.

She considers her brother her mentor, who was always there to guide her through every difficult situation in her personal and professional life.
