I personally think she’s more English than anything
Haha xd
American is not a heritage..
Unfortunately she said it on her reality show when she was talking to an American tv producer and it’s not quoted, though she certainly said it on film. The nearest quote I have to back this up (though she does not specify which blood lines) is from this article: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-472288/Jordans-baby-Princess-Tiaamii-ginger-I-love-anyway.html
I have also seen extensive info about her Jewish-Belgian ancestry on a genealogy website in the UK which I can’t now access as it had been taken down (“Blame it on Grandma” was the website name.
thanks for the link!
Correction – she has also stated on her show that she is of Italian descent through her Dad’s side and Belgian descent through her American Grandfather.
A quote and link would be helpful.
She has also stated she is of Italian and Belgian descent.
