Jane Seymour was born Joyce Penelope Wilhelmina Frankenberg in 1951 in Middlesex, England, to a nurse mother and a gynaecologist/obstetrician father. Her parents' diverse heritage is a testament to her mixed ancestry, with her father being of Polish Jewish descent and her mother being of Dutch descent. To make her career in show business more manageable, she adopted the stage name "Jane Seymour," which was also the name of one of King Henry VIII's wives. This decision proved to be a savvy one, as it made it easier for people to remember her.
