Inheritance can be quite tricky. Families sometimes get torn apart over how financial assets and material are transferred between generations. However, there is one family asset which tends to strengthen family ties – an intergenerational resemblance. A slew of charismatic and attractive individuals have passed on their looks as well as their other intangible qualities to their kids and grandchildren. At times, the generations that come after and their ancestors look very much alike that the former have the same success as the latter. Let’s look at some of the major figures in film, music, politics, and sports that have grandchildren who share a striking resemblance with them. A word of caution: some of the resemblance are just downright eerie!
Quinn tivey – Elizabeth Taylor’s Grandson
Elizabeth Taylor, one of the 20th century’s quintessential film stars, was well-known for her incredible violet eyes and a genetic mutation that was quite flattering (it gave her two rows of eyelashes!). The movie star, who tied the knot seven times, passed on the timeless good looks she had to grandson Quinn Tivey. His mother is Liza Todd, Taylor’s only child. The Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation has Tivey as its trustee.
Steven R. Mcqueen – Steve McQueen’s Grandson
The name of action star Steve McQueen became closely associated with rugged good looks and bravado owing to the actor’s roles in films such as The Great Escape and The Magnificent Seven. McQueen passed away due to complications from mesothelioma, which he contracted because of he was exposed to asbestos on film sets. He had two children. He also had a grandchild who shares a striking resemblance with him and was named in honor of the late actor.
