CNN —Bob Odenkirk was royally amused to find out he has a famous relative.
During an appearance on “Finding Your Roots” set to air on PBS Tuesday, the host Henry Louis Gates Jr. let Odenkirk know he was related to the British aristocracy, including a Duke.
When Gates asked it how it made him feel, Odenkirk responded, “Like I’m part of history that I didn’t think I was any part of.”“But I’m an American, I’m not a monarchist,” the actor said.
You know, I feel like it’s a little twisted.
Gates then teased him that he hadn’t “been royalty more than five minutes” and already was trashing his family.
