More Irish than English by the looks of those surnames There are Irish communities in virtually every single major English, Scottish and Welsh city; some have been there for 8 generations or more, especially on the west coast of the UK fleeing the famine. Not all of them went to the new world.
being something for 20% or less (compared to being something for 80% or more) makes it a minority in your blood and genes, which means you almost aren’t it anymore. It’s so damn distant, how do you expect a damn let’s say 87% white person and 13% native person to look mestizo or native? Drop the stupid one drop rule because it’s genetically so incorrect and retarded as well as racist. Even if she had something, it’s too distant. But, on the other hand it’s very racist that you can’t accept a white person isn’t just a blonde-blue eyed person. Cheryl is perfectly white looking and this is coming from a white that lives in Europe (the white’s native land). So, trust me I’ve seen darker whites and no one ever questions their ancestry, just like a light black from Africa isn’t in anyway distantly white.
She does look kind of indian in this picture or a mixed race latina. Without the heavy tan and makeup she looks like a typical white girl.
Heres a girl who looks similar from the same sort of area, Jade Thirlwall, of Little Mix popgroup!

I thought she was a Brit of Pakistan/Indian descent or at least Anglo-Indian.
She is definitely NOT a full Brit.
Ms. wanna-be-white Arab girl back to the trolling already? How many accounts do you have?
You need to get outside a bit more.

Is Andrew Tweedy Cheryl’s brother or half-brother?
add this: Nora Kelso was the daughter of George and Mary Kelso. She was born in North Shields, Tyne and Wear, England.
Andrew is her half-brother, from her mother’s previous relationship (to an English man).
