As an Italian, I know a thing or two about keeping business in the family. The royals, whose names have been all up in the news lately, also like to keep things in the family. What separates me from them? Well, my family tree is linked to the mafia, while the royal family tree is quite literally just linked.
Look I’m not going to make up lies about the Queen and say that she fucked her cousin, but I don’t need to. She fucked her cousin. A lot of royals in history have kept things between themselves, and Lizzy is no exception to the rule.
Both Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth share a great, great grandmother in Queen Victoria and a great, great grandfather in Prince Albert. This shit isn’t just some coincidence, and looking at the family tree, which users on TikTok have started to call the family wreath, makes it look all that much worse.
The choice of ‘Sweet Home Alabama’ as the song here is just… chefs kiss.

Has this been a royal secret hidden underneath the catacombs of Buckingham Palace only for a TikTok user to reveal them? Well, no, but it’s interesting to see a whole new generation of people learn the common fact that Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip are related.
How related? Well technically they’d be classified as fourth or fifth cousins, and yes it still counts as inbreeding. No degree of separation can make this fine and normal.
In fact, it would probably have been frowned upon if either of the two married a commoner, and so this marriage would have been seen as the ultimate way of preserving the royal blood.
Wording it that way sounds sick and twisted, but so is the history of royals so… what can you do.
These days the options for marriage are much laxer, which is why Harry and William were free to marry who they pleased, and thank the lord that they did.
Meghan Markle is a stunning addition to the royal family, and the first person of colour to enter the royal tree in a long time. It’s not surprising that someone would have made racist comments about the colour of her child, because this family is as white as they come.
If you need me I’m going to see if my loose mafia ties in Calabria can get me a free ice cream or something.
