Trump & King Charles: 15th Cousins

0:00It's April 29th, from Ray Carpets to Breaking Stories. This is Entertainment and Celebrity News, powered by AI. A new report dropped during President Trump's state visit with King Charles III, claiming the two are distant family, specifically 15th. Cousins. The Daily Mail hooked up with genealogist Robert Barrett, who dug through old land records, church docs, and Scottish peerage files, to connect the dots. It all links back to Trump's Scottish roots, through his mom, Mary Ann McLeod, tracing both lines to the third Earl of Linux, a great grandson of King James II of Scotland. This ain't the first time a U.S. press found royal blood, back in 1988, folks learned George H.W. Bush was a 13th cousin to Queen Elizabeth II. Stats even show American presidents are way more likely about six times over to carry their royal lineage than everyday folks flipping the script on our rebel history.
