Is anyone here related to someone famous?

I am not

🤣🤣🤣 Well played 👏

The nearest thing I can think of... my cousin is a vision mixer (camera crew). He is a regular on This Morning but does other live freelance work like Strictly, X Factor, BGT as well as many shows. So not famous himself but mixes with famous people on a daily basis 😁

Fame and money can destroy people and they can then take everyone else down with them.

My grandfather's death was front page news, and I was the soul person in the main photo on the cover of a national newspaper the next day.

I also have a cousin a few times removed that won an Oscar. I've never held it though.

**cover of a national newspaper the next day... After the funeral!!!

I am not famous 😂

I am descended from John Dee who was astronomical and medical advisor to Queen Elizabeth 1 (according to family legend)

Related by marriage to the actor John Hurt (DH distant cousin). DH also related to Enid Blyton via marriage.

No longer alive but great great grandfather was one of the men in a famous rescue.

I am related to a very famous Irish vet, he's not a nice person. Bit of an arse.

@DaisyBuchannan27 My dad used to know Peter Stringfellow back in the day.

You poor thing.

My ex partner's cousin was the singer from Fine Young Cannibals

Are they an ex because they drove you crazy?

Sorry I couldn't help myself.

I'm not, but all my relatives are.

My DH thinks that the next line is "my father knew Lloyd George", but says he is not at all confident about it 🤩

😂

Yes, my uncle is a very well known tv presenter. I see him a couple of times a year at family events but we're not close at all

My second cousin is in a globally famous hair rock band from the 80s.

Yes, but I have no idea who he is. I only know this from watching "who do you think you are" and noticed our linage is identical and we are related, but not closely, like 2nd cousins.

Yes a very rich duke who lives in a castle which has been used in a film series- extremely well known movies.

No. But my daughter's friend is a cousin to a Marvel actor.

My nan always said we were related to Lady Jane Grey (she was Queen for 9 days) and also to Josiah Wedgwood. No idea if either are true and there's certainly no money !! 😂

Mine too! I have seen pics of them hanging out together!

Maybe your dad knew my dad and they went out as a group!

Yes he does

She was a tragic figure in history so young.
