David John Constant (born November 9, 1941, at Bradford-on-Avon, Wiltshire, England) played 61 first-class cricket matches from 1961 to 1968 for Kent and Leicestershire. He later became an international cricket umpire, officiating in 36 Tests from 1971 to 1988 and 33 one-day internationals from 1972 to 2001.

Constant commenced his first-class cricket career with English county side Kent, later moving to Leicestershire. His first Test as umpire was the Third Test between England and Pakistan in July 1971; his colleague was Arthur Fagg. England won the match by 25 runs. Constant has not umpired in an international cricket match since the England v. Australia one-day international at The Oval, London in June 2001.
