Thats a cool background, surprised to see he is one quarter lebanese and also has all these british ancestry too, he looks quite like a perfect 50/50 italian-german mix. I thought Vaughn was an artistic name.

No Welsh ancestry? Vaughn is usually a Welsh surname.
Yeah, there has to be some Welsh in there somewhere.
Always figured he was Italian or had some greek Med mixture in him.
Contrary to your aspersions on his character, Vaughn is a Libertarian.
