Genetics are truly insane. Not to say they could not look alike just by coincidence, BUT i have noticed on this show that some people will bear a certain resemblance to ancestors from literally 200 years ago!!! Tina Fey said when looking at her 5 or 6x time great grandfahter, "wow, that looks just like my dad!" etc.

I am also in this family tree according to Family Tree genealogy. Joseph Strong was my cousin along with Princess Diana on my mother's side and Queen Elizabeth on my father's side. and many presidents and so many other notable people. Elvis is my 7th cousin, George Harrison and John Lennon one on each side of my family, also Marilyn Monroe and my family came over on the Mayflower and also have very deep roots in England. There are 30 million people alive today and 20 million of them are in the United States who are descendants from the Mayflower. We all have famous relatives. Genealogy is so interesting 😊

I can see a resemblance with Glenn & Diana. Look back at the photo of when they met in England while Glenn was promoting a movie & she is in a reception line meeting the Princess. Their facial structure is remarkably similar. Their smiles. The hair cut too! Wow! Who would have thought years later Glenn would find out about actually being related! I think it’s cool.
