Catherine, as the Duchess of Cambridge and Princess of Wales, has a notable family history tied to the royal family. Interestingly, she is distantly related to two famous Hollywood actresses, Dakota Fanning and her sister Elle Fanning. Historians discovered that the Fanning sisters are descendants of King Edward III, who reigned from 1330 to 1376.
