Her mix surprised me,I knew she was mixed race but not a Eurasian but a BW mixed woman.She even has a wide nose.What’s funny is her husband looks like he has Asian ancestry but doesn’t while she looks like she has black ancestry but doesnt
I thought the exact same thing. I never really paid attention to her last name so I didn’t realize it was Norwegian. looking at her now though, its obvious she southeast Asian ancestry, especially in her facial structure and her lips.

Chrissy has possibly remote English roots. Her 9th great-grandmother was Susanna Stevens, of Oberlangen. Susanna’s surname is of English origin. However, it is not clear if Chrissy has English ancestry.
Stevens can also be Dutch, and Oberlangen is near the Dutch border. Occam’s razor tells me she was more likely to be Dutch than English.
Richard Schafer’s father, Mathias “Matthew/Matt” Schäfer, was probably born in Luxembourg. However, I cannot confirm that yet.
Hans I. Teigen’s middle name is Iversen. He had no middle name at the time of his confirmation to the Lutheran Church.
