David's paternal lineage began with his father, the Reverend W.J. Paradine Frost, a respected clergyman who sadly passed away in the year 1967. His mother, Mona, born in the year 1903, resided in the charming town of Beccles, situated in the picturesque county of Suffolk. David was blessed with a sibling, his sister Mrs. Margaret Bill, who resided in the quaint coastal town of Whitby. Throughout his life, David was fortunate enough to own a diverse range of properties, including the charming 'Sweet Briar Cottage' in Eastbridge, near the village of Theberton, located in the county of Norfolk. He also possessed a stunning Georgian town house in the affluent area of Knightsbridge, situated in the heart of London. Furthermore, he enjoyed the luxury of a hotel suite in the vibrant city of New York. David's personal life was marked by a brief but notable marriage to the talented actress Lynne Frederick in the year 1981, which unfortunately lasted only six months.
