So that would result in the Royal Family will actually represent their Royal sujects, at least racially/ethnically. We live in interesting times. They are German/Greek. Not been an English monarch for a couple of hundred of years. An African American in the mix will add some needed new genes. But not that interesting really.

Look at Debretts, the English Queen is descended from the Prophet Mohammed via Edward the Fourth is it? Can't hide the half caste aspect, but they did force her to not be a Catholic anymore. Jew, Muslim, atheist, Buddhist, JW etc all allowed to be in cherge of the Throne. Only one Faith debarred. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toast 16,261 Posted January 13, 2018 There's no Greek blood in Phil's family. His grandfather was Danish and was invited by the Greeks to be their King. His grandmother was Russian. His mother was German, but descended from one of Queen Victoria's daughters and born at Windsor Castle. It's always been amusing to refer to him as 'Phil The Greek' though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think Diana met James Hewitt until after Harry was born. The dates don't tally. Aye, summat I posted on here years back. Red hair comes from his spencer ancestry and there's enough resemblence to Charles around the ears, balding pate, bridge of the nose to suggest he's who they claim him to be. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've looked this up, and she was apparently brought up as a Protestant, although she went to a Catholic school. Her mother is Protestant and her father Episcopalian. In any case, heirs to the throne are no longer barred from marrying Catholics. The 2013 Act that changed the rules of succession also removed that bar. You are right though that the Sovereign may not be a Catholic. That's because s/he is also head of the Church of England. I also discovered that her first given name is Rachel, which I think is a much nicer name than the ugly, clunky (and misspelt) Meghan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sadly you won't convince those who are determinedly lost in their desire to believe a story regardless of the facts. Perhaps they are Doctor Who fans who believe in a time machine tardis otherwise how do they explain how James Hewitts sperm flew back in time to impregnate Diana before he ever met her!!

Aye, the same people who believe Roswell was briefly invaded by aliens despite the fact the human witnesses to the event conspiciously failed to spot each other and that their varied tales give us six landing sites (one fewer than the number of credible witnesses who's stories tally with the crash of a top secret unmanned balloon project) Rant over! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
