She was educated at Rye St Antony School and at St Edward's School, graduating in 2005. She attended Drama Centre London, and graduated in 2009. Clarke stated in a 2018 interview that her maternal grandmother was the result of a secret affair her great grandmother had with a man from the Indian subcontinent. Her grandmother wore light makeup to hide the dark complexion she had inherited from her father. She credits this as her family having a "history of fighters," saying that “The fact that had to hide her skin colour, essentially, and try desperately to fit in with everyone else must’ ve been incredibly difficult.”
