She is the elder daughter of Walter de Havilland, a British patent attorney with a practice in Japan, and the former Lilian Augusta Ruse, an actress known by her stage name of Lilian Fontaine, who married in 1914. Her younger sister is the actress Joan Fontaine (also born in Tokyo, on October 22, 1917), from whom she has been famously estranged for many decades, not speaking at all since 1974. De Havilland's family moved from Tokyo when she was two years old, settling in Saratoga, California. She attended school at Los Gatos High School and at the Notre Dame Convent Catholic girls' school in Belmont, California.
