Early life

Andrews was born in London, England, the son of Nirmala, a psychologist, and Stanley Andrews, a businessman,¹ both immigrants from Kerala, India.² He was raised in Wandsworth, South London and had what he has described as a "very repressive" upbringing. Andrews was raised in the Methodist denomination.³ At the age of sixteen, whilst at Emanuel School, he fell in love with his mathematics teacher, Geraldine Feakins, with whom, 7 years later, he had a son, Jaisal, born in 1992.⁴

Career

Andrews went on and auditioned for drama school. He was accepted at London's Guildhall School of Music and Drama with Ewan McGregor and David Thewlis. His studies paid off when he won a role in Hanif Kureshi's film, London Kills Me (1991). Andrews starred in the 1993 BBC miniseries Buddha of Suburbia. He is best known for his role as Kip in The English Patient (1996) and as Sayid in the popular television series Lost (2004). In 2006, he was voted one of People magazine's World's Most Beautiful People.

Personal life

Andrews is in a relationship with actress Barbara Hershey and they live in Los Angeles. The couple separated briefly in 2005 and, during that time, Andrews had another son, Naveen Joshua, with another woman, Elena Eustache. He and Hershey later reconciled.⁵ He has been involved in an on-going custody dispute with Eustache over Naveen Joshua; on 7 January 2009 Andrews was granted temporary sole legal and physical custody of the child.⁶

Andrews has spoken about his alcoholism and his two-year addiction to heroin in the mid-90s.⁷

Andrews also plays guitar and sings.⁸
