During King Charles and Queen Camilla’s recent state visit to the United States, an unexpected connection between Donald Trump and the British monarch has sparked curiosity. Trump has even joked about his desire to reside in Buckingham Palace.

A Surprising Ancestral Link

Recent reports suggest a fascinating genealogical link between Trump and King Charles, identifying them as approximately 15th cousins. This connection can be traced back to an ancestor, John Stewart, the 3rd Earl of Lennox, and his daughter, Lady Helen Stewart. Interestingly, this lineage ultimately ties to the MacLeod family, which is the maiden name of Trump’s mother, Mary Anne MacLeod, who immigrated from Scotland.
