    She’s got mostly Iberian and Italian blood according to some sources, considering their ancestor’s surnames.

      Lol her Iberian/Spaniard is nonexistent and the Italian still not so much she’s a genetic —- to be Spaniard and the Nordic Italians from Italy who are Alpine and Noric have different face she’s Baltic looks Russian and Uckrainian.

        You think Iberian/Spaniard can’t look like her…just only people from Northern Europe. Ancient Spaniard or Italians looked like her. That’s the problem with you people that don’t know how genetics work. you go by the stereotypical looks and features.

    She is listed in various websites as having Arbëreshë ancestry on her mother’s side.

    Besides “Ferreira” (either Portuguese or Galician), not much is known there.
