Adam & The Ants Follow

Adam Ant was born as Stuart Leslie Goddard on November 3,

1954 in Maryleborne, London, England.Adam came from a

working class family background. Adam's grandfather was a

full-blooded gypsy. His father was a chauffeur and his

mother used to clean house for Paul McCartney. Adamwas

brought up in North London as an only child. They lived in

just two little rooms without the luxuries of running tap

water and private washroom facilities. They lived in a

fashion to which the average working class London family

has become accustomed to. Adam commented "I mean there is

poor and then there is really poor. There was no luxury,

but there was always food on the table. If we were ever

desperate, then it was always concealed from me."
