Kate's family tree has working class and middle class connections and a link to royalty, according to genealogists at a roadshow for the BBC's Who Do You Think You Are? programme.
Experts traced Kate's ancestry on her father Michael's side back to King Edward III. In 1352 his son Lionel of Antwerp married the Countess of Ulster Elizabeth de Burgh, who the Lady in Red singer is descended from.
