The ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star has been unveiled as a legitimate descendant of Scottish royalty after journalist and researcher Craig Williams traced back her family tree, the Daily Record reported.
The makeup mogul is also said to be related to Rob Roy MacGregor, an outlaw who later became a folklore hero.

Williams decided to look into Kim’s ancestry on her mother Kris Jenner’s side upon becoming aware of claims that the Kardashians like Scottish names: for instance, Kourtney named her daughter Penelope Scotland Disick.
“This all came about because I had seen the name of Kim’s niece was Penelope Scotland Disick. I thought the family must be aware of a Scottish background. And sure enough, when I searched the historical records, there it was. I had no idea they would be linked to such a towering figure from Scottish history though. And as the MacGregors claim direct descent from Scottish kings, maybe Kim could have a claim on the throne,” he told the Daily Record.
Kim K, who is currently pursuing a new career goal by following in her late father’s footsteps to become a lawyer, has yet to react to the startling revelation.
