her french ancestry gotta be southern french, possibly basque french, that would partially explain her having this oddly ”dark” features for someone with this background, but the french ancestry is distant, so idk…
*kinda ”dark” and ”broad” features
Her great great great grandparents were from central/eastern France
@follers, she looks 1/4 jewish, because she IS 1/4 jewish – I’m 1/4 jewish too, so I know my people better than you ! ! ! Take it as a man and learn to live with that FACT :)

She looks like Summer Glau and has a similar ancestry.
isnt Sophia Levi jewish?
If you look at Sophia Levi’s tree (the last one linked above), she isn’t Jewish at all, and has several ancestors named Christina on her family tree, among other things. Her line goes back to a Conrad Heinrich Levi, born probably around the late 1600s in Germany, and who was surely not Jewish. “Levi” can be a non-Jewish German surname (as well as an Irish surname, by the way).
