Simon Cavill is the brother of Henry Cavill, the renowned British actor. Born Henry William Dalgliesh Cavill, he is famous for his role as Charles Brandon in Showtime’s “The Tudors.” In addition, Simon’s brother rose to fame for his role as Geralt of Rivia in the Netflix fantasy series “The Witcher.” He also portrayed Sherlock Holmes in the Netflix film “Enola Holmes” (2020) and its 2022 sequel.

However, being the brother of a globally successful actor like Henry can be challenging, leading to Simon’s low profile. Hence, despite being the brother of an accomplished actor, Simon stays away from the limelight. Consequently, most details about him elude the media. Nonetheless, fans of the famous actor are curious about his roots, including his brother, Simon Cavill.

Here’s everything we know about him.

How Old Is Simon Cavill?

Simon Cavill is currently 44 years old. According to reports, Henry Cavill’s brother, Simon, was born in Saint Helier, Jersey, in September 1979. He was reportedly the third child of his parents, Marianne Dagliesh and Colin Cavill. Like his famous brother, Simon is of White ethnicity. Although British, Simon is of English, Scottish, and Irish descent, thanks to his parents. 

According to reports, his Jersey-born mother, Marianne Dalgliesh, is of Scottish, English, and Irish heritage. She also worked as a secretary in a bank. His father, on the other hand, Colin Cavill, was born in Chester, England, and is a former stockbroker. Like the famous actor, Simon spent his formative years with his parents and siblings in Saint Helier, Jersey.

However, details about his early childhood days remain unknown due to his cagey lifestyle. But reports suggest he had a similar early childhood experience with “The Tudors” actor. 

While Simon’s educational background is a mystery, Henry Cavill reportedly attended St Michael’s Preparatory School in Saint Saviour, Jersey, before attending Stowe School in Stowe, Buckinghamshire. Since Simon is the immediate older brother to Henry Cavill, reports suggest that he may have attended the same schools as well. However, these reports remain unconfirmed.

Who Are Simon Cavill’s Siblings?

Simon Cavill has four other brothers: two older ones, Piers and Niki Cavill, and two younger ones, Henry and Charlie Cavill. However, Henry Cavill is the most famous of them all. 

First is Piers Cavill, Simon’s oldest brother. According to reports, he was born in 1971. Like Simon, Piers keeps a low profile and is inactive on social media. In addition, he grew up in Jersey, where he had his elementary and high school education.

After graduating high school, he enrolled at the University of the West of England in 1993 and graduated with a BA in business decision analysis in 1996. Afterward, he enlisted in the British Army in September 1996, and after nearly ten years of service, he attained the rank of officer. However, Piers entered the workforce after leaving the Army in 2006 and has since held various positions with various businesses. 

Niki Cavill

After Piers comes Niki Cavill, the second-oldest brother of Simon Cavill. He was born in 1975, and like Piers, he enlisted in the military, specifically the Royal Marines Corp, after graduating from college.

Niki’s decision to join the Marines was both daring and life-altering. However, he distinguished himself in the service of his country. Throughout three tours in Afghanistan, he fearlessly confronted the Taliban and even captured their commander.

Consequently, in 1999, his contributions earned him the prestigious recognition of an MBE and a well-deserved appointment as a lieutenant colonel on June 20, 2014. In addition, he became a colonel on April 1, 2019. However, due to the nature of his work, Niki leads a private life.

Henry Cavill

Henry Cavill is the fourth son of his parents and Simon Cavill’s immediate younger brother. Unlike his older brothers, Henry is a renowned actor. He began his career with roles in the film adaptations “The Count of Monte Cristo” (2002) and “I Capture the Castle” (2003). Afterward, he landed supporting roles in television series, including BBC’s “The Inspector Lynley Mysteries” (2002) and ITV’s “Midsomer Murders” (2003). 

Following his international breakthrough as Superman, the renowned actor has starred in several blockbusters, including “The Witcher,” “The Man from U.N.C.L.E.,” and “Mission: Impossible – Fallout.”

Charles Cavill

Charles Cavill is the youngest brother of Simon Cavill. Like Piers, Charles studied at the University of the West of England. He graduated from the University with a marketing, accounting, and economics degree. Afterward, Charles worked as a senior sales executive at IDG Communication from 2010 to 2011. Charles Cavill resides in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, with his wife, Heather Cavill. 

The couple reportedly co-founded Cavill and Wicks Candle Co., a business that creates distinctive, high-end candles with exotic fragrances like coconut and soy. Of Henry Cavill’s brothers, Charles is the only one who has a social media account. With over 17,000 followers, the celebrity sibling maintains a relatively large presence on Instagram.

Where Is Simon Cavill Now?

Among the five Cavill brothers, Simon is the most private of them all. He lives away from the spotlight of the “Man of Steel” actor. Hence, there are no details regarding the celebrity sibling’s whereabouts. Like his brothers, reports suggest that Simon spent some time serving in the Army but has left that path.

However, due to his sheltered lifestyle, these reports remain unconfirmed. In addition, Simon reportedly married Victoria Pendlebury Cavill on August 8, 2014. Another celebrity sibling who keeps their life private is Zendaya’s half-sister, Katianna Stoermer Coleman.
