Biography
Vicky Knight (also known as Vicky Chaundy) is an English film actress and healthcare worker. Born in 1996, she made her acting debut in Sacha Polak's Dirty God (2019), where she played an acid attack victim to critical acclaim. She also appears in Too Ugly For Love (2014). Actors are performers who inhabit characters across film, television, and stage.
Knight's early life was marked by severe trauma. At age seven, she suffered burns to 33 per cent of her body in a 2003 arson fire at her grandfather's pub; two of her cousins died in the blaze, and a local plumber who rescued her later died from his injuries. She was treated at Broomfield Hospital in Essex, where she now works as a healthcare assistant. This dual career reflects her stated commitment: if acting roles dry up, she continues hospital work.
Her accolades include BAFTA's Breakthrough Brits award, British Independent Film Awards for Best Performance by an Actress and Most Promising Newcomer, and Screen International's Stars of Tomorrow. Knight founded the charity Scar Quality to help burn survivors rebuild self-esteem. At school, she participated in a sponsored 28-mile walk that raised £1,000 for charity, earning her the title Student of the Year from the Association of Colleges. As a Capricorn, her resilience and dual commitment to craft and service align with the sign's reputation for discipline and responsibility.
