Regrets: David Sassoon at his home in Palm Desert, California, this week. Today, in an explosive interview, The Mail on Sunday can reveal how Sassoon – who died of leukaemia aged 8. May – was so obsessed with looks that he forced his adopted son David to have life- threatening weight- loss surgery because he believed having a fat child was bad for his public image. Speaking for the first time, David, 4. Dad created the ultimate dysfunctional family,' David says at his home in Palm Desert, a quiet golfing and retirement community a three- hour drive from Los Angeles.

To be honest, I would have been better off if he had never adopted me. Money and image were all that mattered to him.'My Dad had that slogan, “If you don’t look good, we don’t look good”. That carried through to the family. Dad was someone who would dress up to go to the supermarket. He was terrified of being seen not looking perfect.

His image was everything.'Last weekend we revealed how  Sassoon cut David entirely out of his will just two months before his death. It was a final, devastating gesture by a father disillusioned by his wayward child, who has a history of drug and alcohol addiction. With his tattooed arms, scruffy clothes and dark skin, David could not look more different from the man who adopted him in 1.

David says: 'Beverly was carrying twins when she had Eden but there were complications and she lost one.

Vidal was always working, building the business. Beverly wanted four kids, two boys and two girls.

She was doing night classes at university where she met my foster mum. Empire: Vidal Sassoon in his flagship Bond Street hairdressing salon in 1. The next thing I know the whole Sassoon clan turned up at the house. I remember opening the door and saying, "Are you my new mummy and daddy?" 'At the time it was very unusual for celebrities to adopt other ethnicities. These days everyone is doing it. I’m not saying Dad did it to help his image but it certainly generated good press.'David was whisked from the tiny home he shared with his foster family into the Sassoons’ palatial Beverly Hills mansion. But although he was surrounded by material wealth, he claims his new home was miserable.

My mother was an alcoholic and Dad was never there. When he was, he was a hard taskmaster,' says David. I would've been better off if he hadn't adopted me'David Sassoon‘Everything had to be perfect.

We kids had to be perfect. If we angered him he would stop talking to us. That was the pattern of my life.

His was conditional love. He used material wealth to control the family. If you were doing what he wanted, he showed his love in monetary gifts. When you were bad he’d take his money away. It was his way or the highway. My childhood was a misery because I wasn’t perfect enough.

I didn’t fit into the image of what a "Sassoon kid" should be.'He says that his father 'disinherited' him for the first time shortly after his sister Catya died of a drugs overdose in 2.

She wasn’t feeling good and took pills to counteract the pills she’d already taken. She went to sleep and didn’t wake up. I had to call the family. Vidal Sassoon died in 2. Catya from a drug- induced heart attack'When she passed away the family didn’t know what to do with all their animosity so they started directing it towards me. Dad didn’t like the way I looked, how I dressed, how I behaved. I wasn’t any worse than a lot of kids in Beverly Hills but Dad was into tough love.'It caused a rift.

There was Catya and me, the "rebel" kids, and Elan and Eden, the "good" kids. It was all about money. I wanted to be a history teacher. Dad said: "Why do you want to be a teacher? They don’t make any money."'First my mum stopped talking to me.

They wanted me to work for the family firm but I wanted to do my own thing. I wouldn’t toe the line – I wanted to be my own man. Dad didn’t like that, so then he stopped talking to me. We had problems – we could go years without talking.’David also reveals how his father’s obsession with appearance caused the rift to deepen. I had a motorbike accident after college and couldn’t exercise,' he says.

I got very fat. I got up to 2. Dad said he would disown me if I didn’t have laparoscopic stomach surgery.

I said, "Fine, disown me". I was scared. It was 2. I told him to f*** off. Dad told me, "You are the only one in the family who doesn’t look the part." 'Not only was I the adopted one but I stood out because I was trouble, I was overweight. Everything he hated. Eden called me and said, "You should do the surgery and stay in Dad’s good graces." 'I felt bullied into it.

The surgery cost £3. I was supposed to have counselling, and physical and mental tests.

Dad said to the doctor, "If I give you cash can you get him into surgery next Tuesday?" That’s how he was. Everything had to be right here, right now, on his terms.' David says he regrets the surgery to this day. The operation reduced the size of his stomach and 're- routed' his bowel to stop food being absorbed into his body.

I wish I’d never done it but I didn’t have a choice,' he says. Dad wanted it so I had to do it. I got so emaciated I looked like a concentration camp survivor.' David also claims that Sassoon was so concerned about his public image that he didn’t tell his family about his cancer diagnosis for more than five years: 'We went to Dad’s house in Mexico in 2.

Dad hit his leg against the side of the pool and it wouldn’t stop bleeding. We wanted to take him to hospital but he refused. So we cut the holiday short and returned to LA. We went with him to the hospital. The doctor came out and said,"I’m not supposed to tell you because he didn’t want you to know but he’s got leukaemia." He found out in 2. The doctors gave him ten years which is exactly what he got.
