Shelton was born in Plymouth, the son of Lt Col Richard Shelton of Guernsey, and attended Radley College in Radley, Berkshire.〔 He was evacuated in 1940, studying at Tabor Academy in Marion, Massachusetts, on an English-Speaking Union scholarship, and then Worcester College, Oxford, where he read Philosophy, Politics and Economics. Then he lectured on economics for a year at the The University of Texas at Austin, before moving into business and advertising, which included work in South America.
Shelton married Anne Warder in 1960,〔 Shelton was knighted in 1989.〔
The 1990s were difficult years for Shelton. He developed Alzheimer's disease,〔 which would eventually cause his death.〔 He lost heavily in the financial crisis at Lloyd's of London and the property slump.〔〔 Furthermore, accusations of financial irregularity led to the closure in 1995 of Access to Justice, a company that he had set up to provide free legal advice to people on low incomes. Consequently, he was given a five-year ban from serving as a company director.〔
