    Yes, Apparently she is the Queen's great, great, great, great, great, great, great, greZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz GREAT, GREAT Grandfather, three and a half times remove on her father's mother's great uncle's side. Just a minute, I'll draw the family tree for you, would you believe it, I have no lead in my pencil...what? WHAT?

  • Yes, in at least two ways actually. Princess Madeleine's paternal grandparents were both descendants of Queen Victoria, Queen Elizabeth's gg-grandmother:

    Queen Victoria

    Edward VII

    George V

    George VI

    Elizabeth II

    Queen Victoria

    Prince Arthur

    Princess Margaret

    Prince Gustav Adolf

    Carl XVI Gustaf

    Princess Madeleine

    Queen Victoria

    Prince Leopold

    Prince Charles Edward

    Princess Sibylla

    Carl XVI Gustaf

    Princess Madeleine

    This makes Elizabeth and Madeleine third cousins once removed twice over.

    Well, all european royal famillys probably are related in one way or another going back enough in time.

    Queen Elizabeth II is the great-great-great-great granddaughter of King George II, and Madeleines father King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden is his great-great-great-grandson.
