Chrishell Stause, full name Terrina Chrishell Stause, is an American actress and real estate agent. She is known for her roles on the soaps All My Children and Days of Our Lives, and on reality show Selling Sunset.
She is the daughter of Ranae, and was adopted by her stepfather, Jeff Stause, a drummer. She has said, “My biological dad is half Japanese and half Spanish. My mom is a European mix.” Her grandmother is of Japanese descent. A picture of Chrishell with her father can be seen here.
A DNA test whose results Chrishell displayed on her Instagram page stated that her genetic ancestry is:
*23% East Asia
*16% Great Britain
*16% Iberian Peninsula
*15% Europe West
*10% Ireland/Scotland/Wales
*7% Native American
She has sometimes been credited as Chrishell Hartley, while married to her former husband, actor Justin Hartley.
Thought I might add that those results are from a (now) quite old version of AncestryDNA; regions like “Ireland/Scotland/Wales” and “Iberian Peninsula” “Europe West” etc. are quite a few versions back. This is from a version in which most of my English & German European ancestry was given over to “Scandinavian” which has all but disappeared in the most recent version.
That leaves out a 13% of his background
