    Her mom doesn’t look like a typical Brit, there’s definitely something more in her background.

    His father is evidently named Simon Reid. Reid is a 100% Scottish surname.

    She is so beautiful and sexy, always been one of my favorites. I’m not one of those people who assume a celebrity must have some “exotic” ancestry based on how atypical they look, but Ella looks like she could be part Indian. Given the British rule in India and how many mixed relationships happened back then I wouldn’t be surprised.
