The daughter of the late Cuban dictator Fidel Castro is doing little to quell rumors that Justin Trudeau is her biological half-brother.
Speculation has abounded for years that the former Canadian Prime Minister is the biological son of Castro because of their younger resemblance and the close relationship his mother was said to have had with him.
During NewsNation’s Katie Pavlich Tonight, Castro’s exiled daughter, Alina Fernandez, was brought on to discuss the humanitarian crisis in Cuba and the potential threat of military action.
However, Pavlich ended the conversation by asking about the possible Trudeau connection.
“For years, we’ve heard rumors that Justin Trudeau, the former prime minister of Canada, could be your half-brother. What do you think about it?” she said.
“The only thing I can say is that his mother used to visit the country very often,” Fernandez responded with a wry smile.
“Well, that may be a tell then,” Pavlich responded. “I guess that’s a half-answer.”
“Yes,” said Fernandez.
“Do you plan to call him and maybe find out?” Pavlich followed up.
“No, no,” Fernandez said. “If he wants, he’s welcome but I won’t, I won’t. I think he keeps that to himself, and you have to respect that.”
