“I am wondering how many red heads are in the royal family”

Hmmm... I guess you’d have to go back to Elizabeth’s and Philip’s generation and check it out. (Isn’t Philip German or something?) From what I’ve heard, red hair skips a generation. It did in our family.

Grandpa and a couple of his siblings had red hair. None of his eight children did. Some of his grandchildren do.

It did not in our family.

I heard that if your mother’s brothers were bald so would you be. She had five brothers that were bald and I got a full head of hair so that’s horseshit too.

Prince Phillip was born to Greek and Danish royal families.

Russian, Prussian/German and UK royals are all related to both sides of Phillip’s family.
