Hey, well he may very well be part Asian as are many other “full blooded” whites.
When both Attila the Hun and Ghenghis Kahn’s armies ravaged and twice almost conquered all of Europe, there was a lot of racial mixing and though the Asian features may have been diluted down some by the fact that these are predominantly Caucasian areas, some traces probably show up here and there.
absolute bs, Russia was under mongol invasion for a long time, and yet they are one of the whitest in europe (as well as all the Baltic peoples)
he looks asian to me
I don´t see a pseudo-Asian look at all. IMO he looks just White.
I don’t know why this dude is hiding he’s Chinese side
It doesn’t look like he has any Chinese ancestry. I’ve seen people that have a Chinese grandparent and look completely European. He is just European. That picture just makes him look particularly dark.
He is English on both sides as far back as the eye can see.
He just looks like his parents.

He has a pseudo-Asian look, not because of the “darkness” of the pic but from the facial features
Google some images of him. That is a much darker picture of him. His features remind me of Miranda Kerr. People are always seeing exotic features in people.
How many people of full European ancestry on this site are said to be hiding non-European ancestry? People have a very narrow and inaccurate view of what Europeans look like. Ed Westwick doesn’t even have epicanthic folds.
he’s not dark, he just has Asian eyes.
correction; his eyes are hazel (light brown) and his hair is light brown (brunet)
