Is it legal at all? Stars Who Married Relatives

Whitney Houston’s daughter married her brother. In 2012, Bobbi Kristina Brown publicly confessed her love and announced her engagement to Nick Gordon, which caused an outpouring of public outrage.

The girl was convicted for having an affair with a relative, but Christina clarified, saying her mother adopted the boy when he was 12. There is no blood relationship between them.

Heated discussions in the early 2000s led to the marriage of Russian actress Anna Bolshova and Anton Kanaev, who is the half-brother of a celebrity.

The stepmother’s 16-year-old son set eyes on Anna, 24, and two years later they got engaged. True, due to Kanaev’s betrayals, the marriage did not last long.

Kevin Bacon and Kira Sedgwick have been married for over 30 years, but only recently learned they were related.

It was all revealed on the TV show Finding Your Roots. The show’s host, a renowned professor of African-American history at Harvard, came to a shocking conclusion. He managed to determine that Kevin Bacon is his wife’s nine cousin uncle.

In his memoirs, the famous director speaks frankly about his marriage to his daughter-in-law. Along with his ex-wife Mia Farrow, Allen adopted two daughters, one of whom estranged the man from the family in the future.

The scandal occurred when Mia discovered a nude photo of Sun-Yi at her lover’s house, after which Allen was charged with harassment. Love won, and in the end, Woody and Sun-Yi still exchanged rings.

The future mayor of New York married his second cousin at a young age. Admittedly, he preferred to say that Regina was in fact a fourth cousin in order to avoid unnecessary reproaches. The marriage did not last long: the couple soon divorced.

Julian became a successful politician and married twice more, but Perrugia couldn’t find her love for a very long time.

One of the most desirable actresses of the 80s was incredibly popular with men. Her cousin Carlo Mantegazza could not resist, from whom Greta even gave birth to a daughter.

The celebrities have never made official statements. Skakki did not reveal details of her personal life, so no one knows if the affair ended in marriage.

French politician Christine Boutin has been happily married for many years and she is not at all embarrassed that her husband Louis Boutin is her cousin.

At the same time, Kristen is strict about following laws and social norms, as if she doesn’t notice what’s going on in her home.
