A fascinating revelation regarding family ties has sparked conversations amidst King Charles and Queen Camilla’s state visit to the United States. Donald Trump has made light of their newfound connection, humorously suggesting he might inquire about residing in Buckingham Palace.
According to reports from British tabloids, a shared ancestor has been identified between Trump and King Charles, establishing that they are distant cousins—specifically about 15th cousins through John Stewart, the 3rd Earl of Lennox, and his daughter Lady Helen Stewart. This lineage eventually ties back to the MacLeod name, which is significant as it was the maiden name of Trump’s mother, Mary Anne MacLeod, who emigrated from Scotland's Lewis island.
