Sean has English, Irish, Scottish, some Swiss-German, and remote Welsh, ancestry. He is also said to have Native American roots on his mother’s side.

His mother looks mixed.
Like a mulatto, quadroon or tri racial (native African euro).
She even has a French sounding surname if I remember. I think he has “creole” roots of which typically means mulatto or tri racial in the modern sense.
Would make sense though. Typically someone claiming native blood typically means “I have black ancestry but don’t want to admit it.”
Would’ve been attractive if he had dark or hazel eyes. His eyes are too light for his dark hair.
LOOL
His mom looks mixed-race. I’ve seen images of her too.
I see the Scottish and swiss german…
Why?
A Gael. Any “Scottish” who look like that are of Irish descent.

Everyone is always claiming native American ancestry. If anything is under 5% it’s pretty much non existent.
