    Her other would be something exotic – Sephardic Jewish, Armenian or something.

    She has an interesting eye shape.

      Askhenazy Jewish too since they are basically the same as Sephardic.

      European DNA or ethnicity doesn’t exist, there’s no such thing. Europeans (including “Northern Europeans”are largely descended from immigrant farmers from the Middle East, the haplogroups Europeans carry are Mid East/West Asian in origin, the majority of the ancestry of the local population in Europe came from West Asia, especially Anatolia and the South Caucasus. The haplogroups that the Indo-Europeans brought into Europe were R1a, R1b and J, they were a mix of Eastern hunter-gatherers and Middle Eastern/Iranians in origin. The main haplogroup in Scandinavia (Denmark, Norway, and Sweden) appears to be I (also Mid East in origin) which is the Brother of IJ. Both lineages are haplogroup IJ subclades. There’s really no difference between a European and Middle Easterner, basically the same people really. So stop making irrelevant comments about how “off-white” she is, it’s outrageous. She resemblances the ancestors all Middle Easterners and Europeans share combined. Nothing exotic about her, sex selection plays a major role in phenotypes of Modern Europeans, Arabs, and people from the Middle East.

    Looks like she’s partially Asian in this picture, but after taking a gander at other pictures of her she looks more like a Croatian girl.
