I read that her grandmother is Nelly Nicolaidu. Her parents were Greek Orthodox from Malta. They moved to Turkey. In 2010, she was 107.
in a French site I read his Jewish (no doubt about it) dad has Spanish (behart surname is of Spanish origin), Swiss and Russian roots, therefore all those ethnicities, except Croatian, are somewhat right.
and the last name hasson can be hebrew too which indicates his jewish roots… its a sephardic last name.
behar-hasson is a jewish last name, no doubt!
It depends on the part of the world, but “Hasson” is quite often a non-Jewish surname.

Where did you read this?

Sephardi Jewish/Ashkenazi Jewish (father)
Belgian, Greek (mother)
That’s just a personal website that was probably copying whatever was on English or French Wikipedia at the time.
I was right
I never said you were wrong about Béart. I just needed a better source.
ok
Her dad is listed to be of French-Lebanese ancestry
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_B%C3%A9art
Her mom is Italian and Greek
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genevi%C3%A8ve_Gal%C3%A9a
Correction:
Her dad is Jewish and her mom Belgian and something else (turkish for imdb)
How do you know she has Jewish and Turkish ancestry? (other than IMDB).
He even had a Hebrew song. ( shilghia )
He is listed as jewish on Wikipedia.
There are Hebrew and French articles where he is described as jewish.
The name Guy is extremely rarely taken by non-jews from the Middle East, it’s actually pretty jewish.
I think it’s likely, but can you find a reliable source, in any language, that explicitly says he is Jewish?

Newspapers get things wrong when they don’t directly interview the person (and often even when they do).
The second source is just about the last name?
I put in that Guy Béart is “likely Jewish”, but definitive proof is needed. I can’t find his parents’ names anywhere.
Where are the links for this? I’d like to know how much of each ethnicity she has.
Jesus. That is almost every ethnic group in Europe.
Interesting, I thought she was 100% French, learn something new everday.
