- Rupert attended Fox Primary School, Notting Hill, Holland Park Comprehensive School. He dropped out of art school in 1977 to form a punk band in which he was singer and lyricist. He later completed a two-year training course in counselling and whilst working as a trainee counsellor at the Charter Clinic in Chelsea, he invented the cartoon character "Fred". After receiving over 80 rejection letters from publishers and newspapers, Fred was taken on by greeting card company, Paperlink, and quickly became a great success, selling millions of cards and generating a succession of books. Rupert has continued to work periodically as a counsellor in private practice and several treatment centres, including four years at The Priory. In 2006 and 2007, he helped set up and establish an addiction treatment centre in Amsterdam. It was the first 12-step based treatment centre in The Netherlands, and the first of its kind to treat computer games addiction. He lives in Barnes, South West London, with his wife and three children.
