Angela Bassett and her younger sister D’nette Bassett have an age gap of only 10 months, as their mother fell pregnant ten months after she was born and gave birth to Bassett's sister D'nette, so we can say that they are of the same age but not twins. The actress stated that her mother's pregnancy only made things worse, prompting her parents to send her to her father's sister, in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Despite the fact that her aunt did not have any children of her own, she loved children and was good with them.
She was picked up by her mother at the age of four after her parents divorced, and she moved to St. Petersburg, Florida, with her sister, which means both the sisters were apart from one another at a young age. Not only that, but Angela Bassett also has a stepsister named Jean from her father's side. She hadn't seen her father in years until she went to her grandmother's funeral. The actress met her step sister, father's first marriage's daughter, Jean, who, at twelve years old, was several years older than Bassett.
As their parents were divorced, her single mother was the one raising them, so it was difficult, but Betty, her mother, persisted for the sake of her girls. She went to night school to get a secretarial career and eventually got a job with the Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services. Angella and her sister, D'nette's mother became more concerned about her daughter's academics and informed her and her sister that the duo would be attending college.
