 Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip (married)

While it isn’t a secret that all the European royals are related, to some extent, you might be surprised to know that the current queen of England, Queen Elizabeth, and her late husband, the Duke of Edinburg, were actually related! The family bond comes from Queen Victoria, as the two were distant cousins, but that didn’t keep them from being happily married for 73 years!!!!

Philip was the great-great-grandson of Queen Victoria through his maternal side and the same with Queen Elizabeth but through her paternal side.

Their love story continued until the day Prince Philip sadly passed away at the age of 99.

  1. The way I understand Rudy’s and Regina family relationship is not second cousins but first cousins once removed. If Regina had a child, that child and Rudy would be second cousins. Help me understand the connection if I am incorrect.
