Personal life

Frayne was born in Bradford, England to an English mother and a father of Pakistani Pathan ancestry.[3][4] He was bullied as a child, and one of the first magic tricks he learned was something his grandfather taught him to make it seem as though he was very heavy so that the other children could not pick him up.[5]

Frayne has suffered from Crohn's disease since he was a teenager and had half of his stomach removed when he was seventeen.[6]

In 2018, Frayne began working with the charity Theirworld, to promote the education of Syrian refugee children.[7]
