During the recent state visit by King Charles and Queen Camilla to the United States, an unexpected connection between Donald Trump and the British monarchy has sparked intrigue. Trump humorously suggested that he might inquire about the possibility of residing at Buckingham Palace.

Uncovering Royal Connections

British tabloids have unearthed a family link that reveals Trump and King Charles are approximately 15th cousins, tracing their ancestry back to John Stewart, the 3rd Earl of Lennox. This link includes Lady Helen Stewart, ultimately tying to the MacLeod family name, which is significant to Trump as it was the maiden name of his mother, Mary Anne MacLeod, who immigrated from Lewis, Scotland.
