Blood also circulates alongside the coal. - Taylor Swift tied to the Sun Monarch!
Taylor Swift (34), considered the undisputed pop queen, is now rumored to have royal ancestry. The British tabloid "The Sun" claims that the American singer is a descendant of the renowned French monarch, Louis XIV (who passed away at 76).
The popular genealogy platform "My Heritage" is said to have revealed this surprising link between the two. My Heritage allows users to examine their family history using exclusive data or through a DNA test. Based in Israel, the company has a reputation for being trustworthy and reliable.
If the news is to be believed, then Swift's incredible success would align her with one of Europe's most powerful historical leaders. Louis XIV's reign lasted over 70 years, making him the longest-reigning monarch on the continent.
He was responsible for the construction of the iconic Palace of Versailles, and was known for his absolute rule and control over his kingdom. But his reign was not without its flaws - high taxes fueled immense wealth, while simultaneously leading to enormous debts. France faced economic turmoil and even came close to bankruptcy following his death in 1715.
Unlike the Sun King of old, Taylor Swift (with her 14 Grammys under her belt) doesn't need to worry about fiscal crises--she's now a billionaire. Her extravagant spending habits have seen her invest a staggering $150 million in stunning villas and fashionable apartments.
The family tree also lists 27 generations between Louis XIV and Swift. Almost all of these connections are either paternal or maternal, with only one fraternal ancestor in between. This means that Taylor is the 8th cousin 11 times removed of the legendary French monarch.
