Her maternal grandmother’s family are also entrepeneurs (Dessert Seed Company)
I’d be willing to bet a few weeks pay that their Mexican side is all Spanish, from Spain. Their dad looks 100% White European (Spanish). He looks a lot like Lou Piniella (for all you baseball fans), and Lou is of Spanish heritage. Definitely no Mestizo in their genes.
Omg! Ignorant ignorant comment!
