Benedict Cumberbatch is the 16th cousin to King Richard III.
Benedict Cumberbatch is distantly related to King Richard III, who ruled England from 1452 to 1485. He was the last English king to have died during a battle, and later, there was a whole investigation into finding his remains, enough for a reburial. Cumberbatch, who plays Doctor Strange in the Marvel movies, is the 16th cousin to the king. He also read a poem at his royal ancestor’s reburial.

24th or 25th cousins? Related? In the US, you can legally marry a second cousin.
I’m probably at worst a 25th cousin of every celeb on this list. (I think I actually am a ninth or tenth cousin of the late Princess Diana.)
We’re both descended ffom William I.
