Born in London's Westminster Hospital as Jemima Marcelle Goldsmith, Khan is the eldest child of Lady Annabel Vane-Tempest-Stewart and Anglo-French financier James Goldsmith. Her parents started a polyamorous relationship in 1964 while they were married to different partners, but in 1978, the two married for the sole purpose of legitimizing their children. She has two younger brothers, Zac, husband of Sheherazade Goldsmith, and Ben, as well as five paternal and three maternal half-siblings, including Robin and India Jane Birley. She has two sons, Sulaiman Isa (born 1996) and Kasim (born 1999), and because she wants to have the same last name as her children, she currently goes by Jemima Khan.

Khan grew up at Ormeley Lodge while attending the Old Vicarage preparatory school and Francis Holland School. Between the ages of ten and seventeen she was an accomplished equestrian in London. Khan enrolled at the University of Bristol in 1993 and dropped out to get married in 1995, but eventually submitted her dissertation in March 2002 for a class 2:1 bachelor's degree in English. She later completed an MA in Middle Eastern Studies at SOAS, University of London, majoring in Modern Trends in Islam.

Khan is known to be shy, with her ex-husband describing her as "very shy". She is modest, stylish, and levelheaded. She calls herself a "lifelong coward" who has a "a chronic inability to make up my mind". On 29 December 2000, Khan and her family were on a British Airways jet to Kenya that was temporarily knocked off course and dived 17,000 feet, after a passenger tried to seize controls in the cockpit. Her mother later said, "Jemima was frightened of flying even before the incident; she's petrified [now]".
