While TikToker Marcella Hill was pregnant and looking for baby names, she made a startling discovery.

It's not uncommon to learn new things about your spouse after you are already married. In fact, it's pretty much expected that you don't know everything about the person you are married to.

But one woman learned something very unexpected about her husband. They are related.


TikToker Marcella Hill told the world about how she fell in love and married a wonderful man only to find out after she was pregnant with their child that were related.

“So I’ve never told anyone publicly that I accidentally married my cousin.”

You can watch Hill's public confession in her TikTok video here:

She learned this information while searching her family tree for inspiration for baby names.

“I was like, ‘Oh look, grandpa’s name, grandma’s name, great-grandma’s name, great-great-grandma’s name.'"
“My husband was next to me on his own family search and was like, ‘Oh that’s funny—we have the same grandma and grandpa’s names.'”

Sure, that could be a coincidence...right?

Hill then searched and discovered her grandfather and her husband’s grandmother were cousins.

To really drive that nail home, they had to make absolutely sure they were reading things correctly.

“So he calls his grandma and I call my grandpa and we ask them if they know each other.”

Any guesses?

Hill got confirmation she and her husband were third cousins.

They were shocked at first, naturally, but eventually they came to terms with the information and are still happily married.

“We have won a prize for being-the-closest-related-in-a-neighborhood activity, and when I go to my family reunion, he gets to go to his too — at the same time.”

She went on to explain she didn't have a traditional wedding, opting to get married at the courthouse on a Wednesday.

However, on Thursday, authorities admitted, “frankly, we don’t know” the true extent of the death toll. Evacuation orders are currently affecting nearly 180,000 residents, as thousands of homes and buildings have been destroyed.
