哈里王子和梅根竟然是遠方表親?

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Are Allegedly Distant Cousins

哈利王子和梅根·瑪克爾是遠房親戚。

A family tree says the 36-year-old actress and her 32-year-old beau are related.

一組家族譜表明36歲的女演員和她的32歲的男友是親戚。

He is a prince raised in London, the son of the first heir to the British throne. She is an actress born in California, the daughter of a yoga instructor and a former television lighting director.

哈里王子是在倫敦長大的，他還是英國王位第一繼承人的兒子。梅根是在加尼福利亞出生的女演員，瑜伽教練和前影視燈光總監的女兒。

But despite their different upbringings, Prince Harry and his American girlfriend Meghan Markle have more in common that we previously believed.

儘管他們兩個有着不同的成長經歷，正如我們原本相信的那樣，哈利王子和他的美國籍女朋友梅根·瑪克爾有很多的共同點。

A genealogical investigation by The Mail on Sunday has found that the famous pair are actually distant cousins, related through a late 15th-century ancestor of the Queen Mother.

本週天，《郵報》的一項族譜調查發現，這對著名的情侶的確是遠方親戚，並與15世紀後期的祖先王太后有關聯。

The publication report the Suits star's connection to the royal Family comes as a result of her family's ancestry dating all the way back to High Sheriff of County Durham Ralph Bowes, an ancestor of Markle from 15 generations ago.

公佈的報告說這位《金裝律師》中的明星和皇室家族的聯繫可以追溯到梅根15代之前的祖先—達哈姆郡（現在叫杜倫郡）的一名高級治安長官拉爾夫·鮑爾斯。

Bowes' family seat was Streatlam Castle situated in the North East of England and his grandson Christopher Hussey moved to America in 1632, helping to found Nantucket, Massachusetts. Fast forward a few years and boom, Meghan Markle.

鮑爾斯的家族坐落於英格蘭東北部的Streatlam城堡。他的孫子在1632年移居到美國，幫助建立馬薩諸塞州的南塔開特。家族發揚壯大，經歷變遷，於是就有了梅根·瑪克爾。

Meanwhile, Bowes's great-grandson Sir George Bowes became a member of parliament during the reign of Charles II and to cut a very long story short, Prince Harry came along.

與此同時，鮑爾斯的曾孫喬治·鮑爾斯斯爵士成爲了查理二世統治時期的國會議員。長話短說，於是就到了哈利王子這一代。

A genetic surgery in 2013 found that all Europeans living today are related to the same set of ancestors who lived 1,000 years ago. And you don't have to go back much further in time to to find that everyone in the world is related to each other.

2013年的族譜調查發現，如今的歐洲人都是1000年前的同一個祖先的後代。你很快就會發現世界上的每一個人都是相互關聯着的。

Who would've though it?

誰會想到這一點呢？
