Ormond was born in Epsom, Surrey, the daughter of Josephine the laboratory technician and John Ormond, a stockbroker. Ormond is the fifth of five children born to her parents. In the beginning, she was a student at Guildford High School and then Cranleigh School. There, her initial lead performances in Guys and Dolls and My Fair Lady were noticed. After a short time in art college, she went to Webber-Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art. Her graduation was in 1988. Ormond first appeared on British television in the 1989 serial Traffik that focused on the illegal drug trade from the middle of the East to the streets of Europe. Ormond was the addicted daughter of the lead character, who was a Home Office minister in the UK government engaged in combating heroin imports. This was her first film role and received a fawning review.
