21st Century Gambling

There have actually been so many Welsh celebrities that have come out over the past twenty years or so. Many of them of course haven’t. This list is just a small amount of the overall people that have gone on to become very successful.

The Brilliant Christian Bale

It is hard to believe that this major hollywood actor was born in Wales in 1974. Bale has to be on the list because he is such a huge actor, although he left Wales when he was two he simply has to be on the list. Many people are shocked when they find out that his father was a pilot and his mother a circus clown. 1976 was the year in which he left Wales at just the age of two and he has since spent a lot of time in England, Portugal and the USA. His top films include American Psycho, Batman Begins and Batman: The Dark Knight and of course Equilibrium.

Duffy

Aimee Duffy was born in 1984 and is an extremely successful singer-songwriter. The only album she has released so far was called Rockferry and it went on to become the number one album in the UK. She actually grew up speaking welsh as her mother tongue which is actually rather rare for Welsh people to do nowadays. The name Aimee was dropped a long while back for both personal and professional reasons.

Catherine-Zeta-Jones

Another welsh actor here and was born in Swansea in 1969. Acting was an ambition of Catherine’s at a young age and she left school for it. The films that she is most known for include The Mask of Zorro, Chicago and The Legend of Zorro.

So there is just the first half of the list of people that were born in Wales and went on to become very rich and famous people.

Part two goes on further to talk to other famous Welsh celebs like Tom Jones, Katherine Jenkins and the controversial Charlotte Church.

Wales is actually a really nice spot to take one of those Family holidays UK or perhaps even one of those awesome family days out.
