I think it would be reasonable to add “some african”. The girl obviusly has recent black ancestry, of course not everyone from Africa is black, especially in the arab countries, but it’s well documented that north africans are usually more of a mix of middle eastern,central asian, and southern european ethnic groups, so the real africans(with roots that date before those of the modern north africans) are more in the sub-saa countries, their phenotype is what we came to know as “black”, and it’s very likely that Samantha has recent black/sub-saa ancestry.

I think her paternal grandparents are Peter John Barks and Beryl Bond.
This is a picture of her mom and (I’m pretty sure paternal) grandmother:
