@dailymail: Talk about a Hollywood family connection 👀 Sydney Sweeney and Marilyn Monroe have been found to share a distant family link, according to new research from genealogy company MyHeritage. The actresses are reportedly ninth cousins, once removed, tracing their shared ancestry back to Ezra Perry, an early English settler in Massachusetts. The discovery adds another unexpected connection between the two stars, who have often been compared because of their similar looks and Sweeney's recent appearances inspired by some of Monroe's most iconic fashion moments. #sydneysweeney #marilynmonroe #family #celebrity #viral
