Graham was born on March 29, 1997, in Changsha, China. When she was only three days old, her biological parents left her at a building’s doorstep, per the Daily Mail. She grew up in County Down in Northern Ireland after being adopted by a couple from Belfast when she was one year old.

“I don’t think I was abandoned,” the actress asserted in an interview with The Times, adding, “I feel my birth parents left me in a place I would be found. And somebody did.” Speaking to The Independent, she called this a “second chance” at life.

Graham was one of the first international Chinese adoptees in Ireland, but at school, she was “just one of the other kids”. As a child, she frequently visited China with her adoptive parents.
