Luis was born in Cuba, to a Spanish-born father, Francisco Felipe Lavín, and a Cuban-born mother, Gertrudes García. Mercedes was also born in Cuba, also to a Spanish-born father, Manuel Duarte, and a Cuban-born mother, Mercedes Alonso.
Cameron’s maternal grandfather was William Marion Early (the son of John Winchester Early and Chloe Kendall Allen). William was born in Missouri. John was the son of William Robin Early and Emma Rozella Fusselman. Chloe was the daughter of Charles Marion Allen and Catherine Delcina/Della Babb.

I see non-white features on her face. People confuse about the fact that she is blonde with blue eyes. Just because a person has these characteristics doesn’t means that he is white. Minka Kelly is brunette and olive-skinned and have much more caucasian features than Cameron.
The bitch looks all white
Alright….then list those “non white” features. Moron she is white. You just can’t accept the fact the she is white, get over it
She doesn’t look “clearly European”. She has a very unusual facial structure that is not common in Europe. Aside from the blue eyes and blonde hair she looks quite Amerindian.
I agree,her nose is not very caucasian.
Lmao she looks Amerindian? How stupid can you be ?? You just trying to unwhiten her when she is clearly white dumbass. And her nose isn’t caucasian ? Then what is it? There are many different nose shapes and types in caucasians. Stupid fucks !
White americans do not look like white europeans.You can tell the difference.Most DNA tests that are being made in US,(Michigan study made for cancer research) show most white americans(unless you a recent immigrant) have some type of mixture(black,native).Many white americans also have jewish DNA.According to studies made in Israel,jewish people have a different DNA.So blame it on her american mom.Remember that most people from the US have never travel or have left their town.
her father is clearly mestizo,but she looks like her mother.
