King Charles and Donald Trump 'Are Related' as Bombshell Family Link Uncovered
New research says the two leaders are 15th cousins through the 3rd Earl of Lennox, with the line traced through Scottish nobility and clan families.
- Genealogical research published by The Daily Mail reveals that President Donald Trump and King Charles III are 15th cousins, sharing descent from the 3rd Earl of Lennox, a Scottish nobleman.

- Historical irony accompanies the findings, which also link the President to King George III, the British monarch whose rule the American colonies rejected in 1776, as the United States approaches its 250th anniversary this year.
